Cadell: 2 years old

We cant believe our gorgeous firstborn son is 2 years old! There are so many things i want to remember of him in these days.


He really is a treasure. We are so lucky to have been given him. He is such a sweet natured boy, still shy but coming out of his shell more and more. He can be quite cheeky and knows it! He is still not saying much, although he knows everything, we only have to say something once and he remembers it.

He loves his new little brother and wants to hug and kiss him all the time, we are working on being gentle! He is seeming to say 'hi baby' when he comes to see liam and its in such a tender way, so lovely to see.

Since I started writing this he has been progressing in leaps and bounds with his talking. I was looking at a book with him yesterday evening and he pointed at the clock in the book, and said 'clock' and then pointed to our clock on the wall! He did it many times when we asked him to repeat.

He is so heavy now! I have had break from lifting him after having Liam, and have only just started to pick him up occasionally and he is so heavy! I also think he has shot up in the last few weeks, we need to measure him but he was wearing some shorts the other day that used to be below his knee, and now is above his knee.

Everyone at daycare loves him. I think he is a lot quieter and sweet than a lot of the others, and rarely gives them any trouble. We had report at daycare the other day and they were very pleased with him. His social skills have improved a lot. He is not keen on making things, but loves playing outside and playing with the baby/home corner. He now has his favourite people in his room, Miss Beth, Miss Vera, Miss Lauren, and Miss Prue. Everyone at daycare calls Miss Prue his 'girlfriend', as he seems to be really attached to her and will always want to go straight to her when he gets to daycare.




He loves all his soft toys, and we caught him 'feeding' his dinner to one of his soft toys last night - resulted in a bath for 'Murray' also! 


His personality is developing so much at this age, so many little quirks and funny things he is starting to say and do.

He is starting to make animal noises, if we ask him what noise an elephant makes he lifts his arm like a trunk and says 'brrrrrr'.

He is definitely our special little 2 year old. 

Can't imagine life without him!

Beach

Our trip to the beach at Redcliffe this weekend.

18 months old

Our little boy is a year and a half! Time is flying by at the moment. So far, he hasn't been saying too much, but I think he has been trying to say a few things such as 'truck' and babbling in his own lanaguage. He also says 'Yeah' when we ask him something and its something he wants! He is understanding so much now though. We can ask him questions and he definitely knows what we are saying and what he wants/doesn't want!! if we ask him 'where's your tummy/nose/mouth/etc' he will find them and point. He is running everywhere, loves kicking balls around the house + outside, although when he is outside he seems to prefer to explore, try and dig with a little shovel, and play in water! He is fascinated with spinning around at the moment, I think he likes the dizzy feeling he gets!

Daycare

This week has been a funny week, I didn't go to work at all on Monday as Cadell was coughing so much he was vomiting and just generally not well so I didn't want to send him to daycare. On Tuesday he was still not well, so I took him to the Doctors early, and he gave us antibiotics for two inflamed ears. He said he was ok to send to daycare though, so I took him to daycare where there was a new person looking after him. I wasn't too happy about leaving him, he was upset and I didn't like to leave him with a new person when he was already unwell and upset. But I had to go to work. Wednesday I was feeling sick but I went to work, I phoned daycare at lunch and they said he was upset and not eating so I left work and went to take him home. So today I am full of cold, Cadell seems a little better but still not eating well so I am going to make him pancakes for morning tea when he wakes up to see if he will eat them. I think Cadell and I have been sick on and off for ne...
