Caden's First Words and Other Talents...

Well Caden is talking but here is my frustration :). He will say Dada, Baba, Uh oh, and get this...LEAH!! Where is MAMA?!! He won't say it, if I say to him, "say Mama", he'll say, "Dada". What a way to break my heart; he is a mama's boy who can't say Mama, what is the deal? I've figured out what Leah means, it's not just for Leah, Leah means sister. Whenever he sees his sister's he says Leah. Being the easiest name to say, it was a given as to who's name he would say first. If he says Katija before Mama...I'm giving up :). Uh oh is a new word and it is so funny how he says it; his lips are SO accurate about getting it right. With his fair skin and bright lips its funny to see his mouth in that shape, with his eyes wide saying, "Uh oh". I have to say he seems very concerned.

He is crawling and pulling himself up onto furniture. He walks along furniture and will stand without help, but as soon as he realizes this, he slowly squats down to crawling position. The other funny thing is this boy has rhythm. It's so funny how he will stop dead in his tracks if he hears music. It doesn't matter what kind either, he just starts swaying to the beat. Although I do notice that classical music does get him to notice a lot faster. He doesn't even need real music, any of us can sing or hum a beat and he'll start bouncing and swaying away.
