Summer is already going by so fast.
I have loved every second being with Cache, I'm learning a lot.
I think working full time has helped me smile through the times when Cache breaks something, grabs his poop, pees on me...etc. because to put it simply, I'm just happy to be home with him.
Two weeks ago we went to Cache's 15 month check up.
They were pretty impressed that Cache could walk backwards, and had been for about a month.
He is 32" long and weighs 23 pounds
(Length 91%tile Weight 18%tile)
Cache is a very observant little guy
Here he is sitting in my chair.
He opened up my vanity,
turned it on,
grabbed my make-up brushes and started putting it on.
Many eyeshadows have been crumbled (yes, even a MAC one).
Cache sees me stick bobby pins in my hair all the time, and I usually have some above my ear...
Now I have to hide them from Cache because he tries to stick them in his ear.
He love to copy everything his dad does.
He even works out with him (cutest thing ever).
He loves moving and he is fast.
If it was possible for us to fly, Cache would be doing that already.
He loves dancing, running, spinning and anything that keeps him going.
In Vegas he would run down the hallway so stinkin' fast,
If Mandi or Kami jumped he would stop and raise his hands in the air, thinking he had jumped.
He tries to do cartwheels with me
AND
he is
ALWAYS
on the
GO...
He also is a very reverent prayer participant.
He will fold his arms and wait patiently until we are done.
Cache loves helping around the house,
he vacuums, "sweeps", dusts and "helps" me with laundry.
He even helps me wipe his poopy bum.
(SO funny)
Words:
Mama
Daddy (perfectly said...lucky Steve)
Doggy: Dah-ee
Bottle (ba-ba)...but the bottle is gone for good!
Woah! (I guess I'll count that as a word)
Thank You (Tay-oo)
Please(Pley...we are working on it, he doesn't say this one too much)
Mandi (Mah-ee)
He jibber-jabbers all the time, I love to hear it.
Possible Phrases We Are pretty sure we heard:
Bath time (Ba ime): We are pretty positive on this one
I want that: Steve and I both think we heard it and Cache was pointing at his sippy, but I hope we can get him to say it in a not so bratty way.
Cache has SIX teeth coming in right now!!
SIX!!
Including a molar
You wouldn't know it because nothing slows this kid down.
Not even Strep throat.
My little baby isn't a baby anymore.
Being with him through out the day has made me realize that even more.
If I ask him to take something to Steve he'll do it.
If I ask him if he wants to read a book, he'll lead me to the bookshelf.
If I say bath time or if he says it, he'll run to the bathroom while trying to undress himself.
If I say, No Cache, he will look at me and smile and stop (usually)
If I say, clean up time, he will start putting things away.
He tries to feed himself with spoon.
He loves to play catch.
If I say, time to go, he will run to the gate and tippy-toe to try and unlatch it.
He does the actions to twinkle-twinkle and 5 little monkeys...
I don't know when all of this happened.
But, I do know/have realized that no matter what things will come up and I need to make sure I take time to write down everything that is going on.
Because someday, this is all I will have to remember these little toddler moments.
Even if I have to stay up til' 2:00 am to do it.
