Alphabitty Moments Letter Dd

It's Alphabitty Time again!

Head over to 4 the Love of Family to join in the fun!

The letter this week is D.

Dd is for Daddy and Me!

Gator Wrestling {becomes} Gator Lovin'

Ok, I must be honest... When Rob brought home a 4 foot long bright green gator stuffed animal from IKEA a few months ago, I thought it was a bit silly. Seriously, how many people NEED a long stuffed animal gator hanging out in their house???

And sooooo, the bright green gator sat, on the floor in Caydin's room, for awhile awaiting his turn to the COOL toy... just hanging out and looking silly. Until ONE day...

{...when Caydin wrestled the gator all over the house}

NOW

Caydin is in LOVE!

bright green gator now gets to sleep under one of Caydin's favorite blankets each night and wakes up to AWESOME Caydin hugs after each nap!
OH how Caydin loves that silly bright green 4 foot long gator from IKEA.

Pudding Party

All of a sudden, Caydin has decided that he LOVES food! He is eating like crazy! He especially loves carrots, peas, noodles {any type}, and nuggets. After eating sooooo well today, I decided it was time for the ol' puddin party! Add in the movie, Finding Nemo and you will find one HAPPY little boy! {Caydin has never watched a movie before, but I tell ya, he would of sat there all evening watching those fish swim around the TV screen!!}

I was soooo impressed! Caydin was digging in! No more little boy who hates to get messy {remember the first couple of tries with painting and birthday cakes?!?} Instead, he was movin' the pudding around with his hands, rubbin' his fingers around the tray, and lickin his fingers like crazy!

GO Caydin!!!!

14 months!!

{waving to his fan club}

Really??

Really??

REALLY??

My little itsy bitsy baby can not possibly be 14 months old today, can he???

He sure is! Woooohooooo!

And, boy oh boy, is he a COOL kid!

We've seen a few changes over the past month!

Caydin says: Mama, Dada, and pla {plane}. He is getting much better at using the words with the correct person/object.

He is also starting the transition from formula to whole milk! {formula is soooo darn expensive!}

Caydin is eating a ton of more solids: carrots, spaghetti, noodles, all sorts of fruits, chicken, etc

Monkey had his first diaper rash {very important info}

what else...

OH, monkey started climbing!!!

This month, Caydin started using his time out chair {mainly for touching the tv}

He looks sooooo stinkin' cute on his time out chair - I LOVE IT!

...and a million other things that I can't think of right now!

P.S. Did you see that super cool trike he has - thanks grandma and grandpa! Walks to the mailbox have never been sooooo much fun!

Screaming {baby} in the Bathtub!

these toys are no longer good enough for my little man...

books in the tub --- gross!

car in the tub --- no way!

balls in the tub --- you're crazy!

surf board with turtle in the tub --- get a life!!!

{HOWEVER}

throw these foam number animals and you will have...

one happy

little boy!

{p.s. a daddy in the tub to play with helps too!!!}

Our little builder

Little Monkey just may grow up to be a construction guy when he grows up =)
