Smarty Pants


Cade just keeps getting smarter everyday. Some of the stuff he says just amazes us. He makes connections all the time. We are constantly cracking up at the things he says. He is very aware of the everyday things that go on. Since I am in the kitchen a lot making food, his new favorite thing is helping me cook or bake. He is always bringing me a bowl and saying, "Lets make something." We made cookies tonight and after he put his finger in the sugar he announced, "Sugar is soooo yummy!" But I guess it doesn't take a genius to figure that one out!

Here is a picture of Cade playing at my feet while I made dinner. He was "making" cars.

                                                                   
He is also quite savvy with musical lyrics. This is a picture of Cade singing (he knows every word) to "Take me out to the ball game" during the 7th inning stretch of a local ball game.





However, he hasn't quite got the concept of Hide and Go Seek yet, or at least the hiding part. Here is what Cole found when he went in to find Cade "hiding."





He also loves to talk with family on the video phone. He is very aware/curious of who is there, when they leave, and where they are going. Whenever we call Shan on the phone, Cade says, "Matthews not there. Matthew is working." Here is a picture of Rylee, Cade, and Matthew when he stopped by for a quick visit. Thanks for coming Matthew!!

I love the picture of Cade "cooking" cars and I want to hear him sing the baseball song!

I'm so glad having two is getting easier. It was a big adjustment for me too - I totally understand why going to the grocery store with the two kids, without Cole, for the first time was a major accomplishment! ;-) Cade is quite a smarty pants! I love the glasses picture!
