Our Little Hero is almost 20 months

Wherever we are, Cade continues to be a barrel of laughs. It is nice to be reminded that life really is about the smaller things and taking time to do all the things you often think, "I'm too busy for that!" For this constant reminder, he is our little hero. I can't believe in less than a week he will be 20 months old! Cade enjoys: anything related to trucks (the bigger the better), the yogurt place and picking out his own toppings (which is usually sprinkles and gummy worms), feeding the ducks at the park and then chasing them into the water, running around in his big boy underwear, and tormenting Baylor with hugs or telling him "No-No". Baylor takes it like a champ most of the time, the rest of the time he just hides under our bed. Although Baylor always reconnects the friendship at meal times! Cade is adjusting well to his big boy bed and stays in it all night. On occasions he is found to have climbed out and been sleeping on the floor by the door, but this has only happened a few times. With regards to potty training, at Gam-ee's house and our house, he is in big boy underwear. He will say "Uh-oh" or answer yes if asked to go to potty. He uses his potty about 8-10 times during the day between both houses, but we are still working on the poo-poo. In public, we stick to diapers (we'll get there). He can pick out our cars in parking lots (this is SO HELPFUL to me) and will point to our house when asked. He also has started yelling "back" and pointing if we leave somewhere he is not ready to part from. Recently when we pull up to the house he will say "icky ana"...meaning our neighbors Ricky and Hana. He loves playing with them, especially their backyard. On our scale at home he is just over 33 pounds. I need to measure his exact height, but it is close to 3 feet tall. He will also point and kiss my belly when asked, "Where's Caelin?". He is really just a joy to be around and makes us smile constantly. Here are a few random pics of Cade...our little Hero.

Can't believe how fast he's growing and that he's bigger than Hana ;).
He can come over anytime and play. I love seeing the world through the eyes of an almost 2 year old. Everything is new and exciting.
