These are little things that Caiden does that make us laugh (or scratch our heads) that are too short to blog about but that we don't want to forget.
5/31/12: The below entry got me thinking about context. Caiden has several words which sound alike, and we must use the context to understand which is which. Example: when he jams a toy into the couch cushions, "tuck!!" means stuck. But when he says "tuck!!" as we are getting out of the car at daycare, it means truck.
5/30/12: I think Caiden's second favorite word (after "no") is "tuck" (stuck). Toys are always getting "tuck", usually somewhat on purpose.
5/28/12: Caiden has been obsessed with bubbles recently. He will lie face down on our hardwood floors and blow spit bubbles on the ground, pausing occasionally to examine the "bub-ble'. And yet he gets scared when I use sudsy soap in the tub.
5/26/12: Dan and I got our most recent Lehigh Alumni magazine in the mail the other day. They had a segment on the men's basketball team, there was a pull out posted of the Lehigh/Duke game from this spring. Caiden loves looking at the poster. He gets excited when he sees it, and will stare at it all wide-eyed.
5/8/12: We read a lot of books tonight, and Caiden kept trying to pick things up out of the pictures. For example he'd grab at a picture of a ball like he wanted to pick it up off the page, and he would get frustrated when he couldn't. I kept explaining to him that it was just a picture.
5/7/12: I sneezed a few times in the evening. Caiden watched me, and afterwards he pretended to sneeze. He even got his whole body into it. Now he does it on command to get laughs out of us. We just say "Caiden: achoo!" and he will pretend sneeze.
5/6/12: More animal noises:
Cat: yeow!
Snake: sssssss
Horse: eigh!
4/29/12: Animal noises according to Caiden:
Dogs: wuf wuf wuf
Bears, dinosaurs, lions, etc: ROAR
Cows: booooooooooo
Pigs and ants: grunt
4/25/12: Caiden was in the bath tub and suddenly put his face in the water. He had never done that before (although he gets a kick out of me blowing bubbles in the pool). He laughed hysterically, said "mo?" (more), and put his face back in the water again. And repeat.... and repeat....
4/24/12: Dan got a really bad cut on his finger a few weeks ago. He explained a few times to Caiden that Dad has a booboo on his finger and that it hurts. Caiden learned "owwww" from these discussions. Dan was gone for a few days for a work trip, and whenever we talked about Dad, Caiden would point to my finger and say "owwww".
