I can't believe how big Kayden is getting, and how much of a little man he is. He's super good at saying his numbers, can count to 10 w/out us and then sometimes after 10 says 17, 14, 2, etc. He also is really liking to sing and dance (that's my boy!). At Kenzie's birthday party last week he was singing "birthday to you, birthday to you," and kept going w/ his own verses after she had blown out her candles and was eating her cupcake. He does enjoy the birthday song. One thing we have been blessed w/ (most days) is how polite Kayden is. He's even been made an example at daycare, although I am guessing that's not the case 100% of the time! hehe He ALWAYS says please and "sank you" and we are so proud at how polite he is to everyone!! Don't get me wrong - its not that way every day. Like yesterday whenever I asked him to do something I got a NOOOOOOOOO at top scream range.
Last week we also went and visited Santa Clause, and Kayden did much better then last year. Santa sat down on the floor and thanked Kayden for calling "this corporate meeting." Kayden barely let him sit and he was on his lap. I got it all on our mini video, maybe I'll figure out how to edit and put a clip on here. Then Kayden and Hannah both sat on his lap, we got some really good pictures. I bought their package, and then of course get home to realize the one I snapped turned out better! Oh well!
Yesterday Kayden was running around the living room while I was feeding and rocking Hannah, and all of a sudden he takes his shirt off and yells "TA DAA!" Here's my cell phone picture of it!
Here are some of our most recent sayings from our favorite 2 year old:
Eric pulling in the driveway w/ the kids the 1st night after we put the Christmas Lights up outside. "CHRISTMAS LIGHTS DADDY!!!!......They are just beautiful."
If he finds a treat (he most likely shouldn't have), "OOOH YUM. That's yummy, that for me?"
To Grandma Loretta after his morning treat, "That's delicious Grandma...no wait that is YUMMY!"
Telling me about his day at daycare, "Mazzy is my best buddy, and Mazzy is Hannah's friend." (Maybe one day I'll be telling that at Kayden and Mazzy's wedding, they are the best of buddies!)
I had a towel wrapped around my head yesterday after I got done showering, "Mommy, you shower? That's good."
"Look! Look! I make Hannah smile!"
And boy does he ever, she hears him coming from a mile away and is grinning hear to hear until she spots that crazy big brother of hers!
"Hello Gorgeous!" He is our lady's man! He loves telling the neighbors that, and really made our neighbor, Kiley's, day when she went to her homecoming dance! She was all snazzed up and he had to see her and give her a hug and tell her that before she left!
"One at a time, ONE AT A TIME."
"Oh, Oh OKAY."
"Santa coming? Christmas Presents, I want two of them. I be really good boy. I open them ONE AT A TIME, OKAY?"
When we were at church for Hannah's Baptism w/ Uncle Kyle (we'll put pics of that up, too!) we put him in the truck and he said "brrr...I don't like it." Me either buddy, me either - Winter and Mommy do not agree!! :)
