Here are a few things that Caiden loves:

-Fruit (especially berries and applesauce)
-Dada and Mama (also known as Bob...I will explain this more later)
-Airplanes and Trucks
-Music
-Dancing (the boy is seriously a dancing machine)
-Being the center of attention (he will do anything to make people laugh)
-Being chased and chasing others
-Bubbles
-Looking out the window
-LOVES Books and reading
-Jumping on our bed
-The Park
-His buddy Grant and Hannah
-Playing in his closet
-His hat and sunglasses
-Making animal sounds (dog, monkey, lion-grrr, horse)

A few weeks ago Caiden had a bad fall that scared me to death! We were at my parents house and he ran to there back door. He thought the screen door was closed and went to lean on it and fell down 2 cement stairs, head first! Of course he was screaming and just wanted dada. Lucky for him he just got a huge scrape and lump on his forehead, it could have been a lot worse. (see pic below)
Caiden has started to call me by a new name..."Bob!" I have no idea why he calls me Bob but Hughey and I have a theory. Hughey calls me mom and babe so maybe he is putting those together some how and mom and Bob have the same mouth shape so that could be a possibility. So for now I am Bob! I must admit I miss hearing him call me mama but I know eventually I will hear it again!
I have stopped keeping track of the words Caiden says because its to hard to keep up with him but, here are a few of his most recent things he is saying...
Hand (hom)
shoe (sh-low, it actually sounds like slow)
NO!
cheese (he signs and says this word)
Yeah!
more (he has always signed this word and recently started saying it)
throw (fro)
bye bye
Basketball (baba)
Mailman ("mama," of course the mailman gets to be called mama)
train
I have been teaching Caiden animal signs here are some that he knows...
giraffe
lion
fish
tiger
elephant
bear
A few other things...
Caiden has 8 teeth and 2 molars are currently coming.
He has SUPER curly hair.
He is now wearing 2T clothing and a size 7 shoe.
Caiden only gets his binky for nap and bedtime and is surprisingly do FANTASTIC! He never asks for it during the day and never trys to steal Landons. I am really shocked he has done so well without it...he was so in LOVE with his binky!
I know this is really long but these are things that we wanted to remember!
At the zoo
Aquarium
Playing with his new train set
Having fun at Forest Park
Being silly
Playing at the Park
When he wears his glasses he loves it when we say, "cool dude!"
