time in the big tub

Someone I know likes having tubby in the big tub. Lots of splashing going on.
 But he has two new teeth to show off!
He also is into body exploration, and clapping!
He likes being a big boy!

new discoveries

Caiden just discovered he has hair!

household changes

You know that saying “One and done”? Well, we knew that wasn’t true for our family, but “Two and through” certainly was. Chris and I were not willing to be outnumbered. Knowing that, we decided to move things around a bit in our home. For one thing, we needed a place to stash the crazy amount of toys we acquired along with the two kiddos. Perfect place for that was our old office. So the computer traveled up to our bedroom, and we made the room more kid-friendly. We decided to go gray on the walls, and let their artwork be the color pop in the room.
Cam appreciates the big open space, and uses it as his hockey rink. Plenty of room for the zamboni to move around.

 It was also (long overdue) time to move Caiden out of our room and into the other upstairs bedroom with Cam. We were a little nervous as to how it would go, but Cam was excited to share his room with his buddy. I have to say, things have gone amazingly well. Even with Caiden having an ear infection and not sleeping wonderfully immediately after moving in.
Just another small change that comes along with having two boys.

hats off to chinese new year!

The boys learn/celebrate a different theme every week at daycare. The teachers have different toys, decorations and projects to go along with the theme. Caiden recently learned about Chinese New Year. He really enjoyed the hats they played with that week!
That’s a benefit of wearing a helmet…hats are pretty cool!

first face

Cam is learning about feelings this week, so he drew a picture of himself. Look at those cheeks!
 I'm pretty sure the second one is daddy....

helmet #2

A normal head’s width should be 75-80% of the same head’s length. Before surgery, Caiden was at 63%. With the help of the helmets, he is now at 72.5%. He’s come a long way! So much so, that it’s time for his second helmet. Look at how he’s grown!
The doctors are aiming for 80% ratio, since as he ages it will slightly come down. One benefit to the helmet? Caiden doesn’t mind wearing hats. Maybe we can outfit him with a bunch of them after he is done with the helmet. A hat party for his first birthday!
