Lots going on!

Cason is getting bigger every day and doing new things all the time! It's so much fun to watch him grow and change and become his own person. He makes Ryan and I laugh all the time. We just can't imagine a more perfect little boy! I took him to the doctor last week because he caught Ryan's cold. We just wanted to make sure he hadn't developed an ear infection, etc. Everything looked great! He is almost 20 pounds...not sure how tall because they didn't measure him this time. He goes back the end of this month for more shots so we'll see how much he's grown then. He has two very pronounced front, bottom teeth and he loves to smile and show them to you. And use them to puncture a hole in your fingernail. Our little can opener as Ryan likes to call him. He thinks anything Ryan does is hilarious and anything I do is moderately amusing. I have found a few things that get his goat. I was blowing bubbles in the living room for Sabyl to bite and pop and he thought it was pretty funny. For a minute anyway. His extended vocabulary includes, "Mama," "Dada," "Baba," and he's squeezed out a few "Nanas." He likes to squeal loudly after anything that makes a loud noise (usually Ryan). The other day I was at Babies 'R Us and used the self-scanner to see how much something was. After it beeped loudly, he looked at it and conjured up his best shot at mimicking the noise. I immediately realized what he was doing. He does this with Ryan all the time. I try to tell him it's probably not the best idea to let our child think it's funny to make loud squealing noises, and this was demonstrated the other night in the middle of Long Horn's when Cason decided he wanted to play that particular game. He has been up on all fours rocking for about two weeks so I'm thinking he'll be mobile in another week or so. Oh, and he LOVES to give you high five and will pat your hand like 20 times in a row if you let him, especially after he's had some sugary juice out of a sippy cup. Other than that, we're enjoying him each day and his big smiles!
