So excited!

I don't know about you, but Caydin is SOOOO SOOOOOO SOOOOOOOO excited that Mama is going to spend the WHOLE week at home next week!

(Ok, so Caydin didn't say that, Mama did.... but hey, MAMA IS SUPER EXCITED to have the week off and get to stay home with the little monkey all week long!)

Huh?

What?? You think I have an addiction for my blankets???
Well....
I think....
You....
may be right!!!

Alphabitty Moments

I'm ashamed of how far behind I am!!!!! I will finish though (or atleast catch up to the letter I'm supposed to be on!!!) Here are a few that I'm finished with... I'm still missing G and I and J shouldn't really count because it isn't a jug that Caydin is playing with!

For G... I'm working on a Gator Wrestling page. Caydin has a long stuffed gator from IKEA that he loves to jump on and wrestle with. It is soooo cute to watch!

H is for haircut. Caydin has had 3 haircuts. The pictures on the page are from his first and second haircuts. Caydin did not enjoy them AT ALL. He was so upset that he didn't even care for the lollipop until after the haircut was over! Upset baby... usually means a not so great haircut! But regardless, he has always looked super cute afterwards. He last haircut (the third one) was by far the best and Caydin was fairly well behaved. Hopefully by the time we go for the 4th... he'll think haircuts are cool!

I is for inside. Caydin loves to stick things inside of other things! I haven't figured that page out yet!

And finally, J is for JuG. Caydin loves to play with that water pitcher (which I guess could count as a jug)... I'm going to continue to work on that page!

Head over to 4 the Love of Family to see other Alphabitty Moments!!!!

This boy....

Is learning new things daily!

He has figured out that toys are cooler when they are upside down!

He has figured out that he can sit on his bikes, move his legs, and ride all by himself!

He has figured out how to give wet mushy kisses and who to give them too... in order to get what he wants.

He has figured out that he loves to sit on Mama, Daddy's, and Grandma's lap!

He has figured out how to hold and carry three balls at once!

He has figured out how to spin in circles.

He has figured out how to say "up" and "ball". (not always but we're working on it!)

He has figured out that he can open and close the sliding glass door out to the porch.

He said "ow" when he got his finger stuck in the door.

He has figured out how to shut his bedroom door then laughs like crazy until you open it.

He has a new favorite song... The itsy bitsy spider.

He has figured out that bubbles won't hurt him and that the parachute at music class is pretty neat to run under!

He has found his love for carrots once again!

Nightime Routines

Each night before bed {usually while he drinks his nighttime bottle}, Caydin takes ALL the blankets out of his dresser drawer. He then snuggles with each one until he figures out which one is his favorite! This can be quite a process because he has 6 or 7 blankets that he has to go through and many times he has to do some of them twice! Once he picks his favorite(s), he gets nice and comfy and this happens.... Going....
Going....
Gone!!!!
(he isn't asleep (haha) but he loves to lay really still on the floor and drink his bottle!)

caydin funnies

let me start by saying that my child can hear the guest bathroom door open and close from a mile away! guests aren't allowed (HAHA) to use that bathroom at night {for fear of waiting our sleeping angel}. seriously, he loves that bathroom. and i'm not naming any names or anything but SOMEONE {me} taught caydin many many many months ago, to knock on the bathroom door when grandma is in there! so now, he knocks and bangs and yells and anything else he can think of to do while anyone uses that bathroom. back to the story, i was in the bathroom the other day when i started to hear caydin do his thing on the other side of the door. theeeeeeeen, i look down at the slot between the door and the floor and start to see baby goldfish and fingers! hehehehe. are you getting the funny here??? caydin thought it was important for me to eat his goldfish while in the bathroom!!!! i guess he figured i'd be in there for awhile or something {which i wasn't... not that you wanted to know that}. i feel pretty special since my child hardly shares his baby goldfish! but boy oh boy did i refuse to eat them after they slid under the bathroom door!

hahahahahhahhahaha.
