So we had a great weekend. We took Cade to the zoo on Saturday and he loved it. He always loves it but he seemed to actually know what was going on this time. He loved the monkeys and would die laughing every time they would chase each other. Cute, cute, cute. He loved the carousel..or at least looking at it. He plopped himself right in the middle of the walkway and watched it but definitely didn't want anything to do with getting on it.
After the zoo we took Cade to get his first big boy haircut. We took him to a barber shop off of Rocky Ridge and were a little nervous when we first walked in. The barber was an older man that took his time cutting Cade's hair. I thought that Cade was going to have a nervous breakdown b/c as most of you know, he is not one that likes any sort of water on his head and this guy kept spraying and spraying and spraying his hair until it was dripping wet...I almost asked him if he was joking because he seriously just kept spraying. Poor Cade kept one side of his head buried in daddy's chest....I guess that is the reason why only one side of his hair actually looks like it was cut. He definitely got a nice version of a whack job but the guy did as good as anyone could considering a crying toddler that kept turning back and forth and pushing his hand away every time he even saw it coming close.

Top Tens
Well I think it has been long enough and sooooo much has changed with Cade that I need to post my top ten favorites. He is soooo much fun and we really love everything about him but I think listing a few will help me to remember when he is all grown up.
1. I love how he is soooo excited when I pick him up from daycare in the afternoons and runs to give me a hug. He loves showing me his progress sheet that he gets everyday and makes sure that I look at it........he holds it right to my nose until I say something about it.
2. I love that he will randomly just say "mommy kiss" and run over to me
3. I love that when he does that, he has to make sure that daddy gets a kiss too.
4. I love how he chases the dogs around the house and holds his arms out like he's a monster.
5. I love that when he has something that is bigger than normal..like a big book or rock or toy, he puts his chin on his chest and talks about it in a deep voice......he will say "mommy, big book"
6. I love how he follows me around EVERYWHERE and wants me to be right by him.
7. I love that when I put him to bed every night, he lays his head on my shoulder and wants to stay there for a few minutes until I lay him down.
8. I love waking up on the weekends to "MOMMY" coming from across the house.
9. I love how he dances every time he hears music....in the car....in the store....anytime.
10. I love how he is so excited when he uses the big boy potty and mocks me when I cheer for him.

New Year
Well there has been quite a bit going on in the Forrester household since our last post....not really new things just really busy with every day life. I had a meeting with Cade's daycare director the week after Christmas and was told that there was a mom of a little boy in Cade's class that was having a fit that Cade was still able to attend the daycare b/c of his biting. This particular boy had been bitten 5x's and Cade was the culprit of two of those bites. The mom was convinced though that Cade had done all of the bites and did not want him anywhere near her son.....really??? SO we were given the option of holding him back while all of his peers moved up and Justin and I decided that it would be better for us if we just tried out a new daycare.....so that is what we did. Cade started a new center this past week and he seems to absolutely love it. He is in a much better mood when I pick him up in the afternoons so maybe he just wasn't happy at the other center. Keep your fingers crossed that this one is a good fit for Cade. Other than that, everything has been great. We had a great Christmas and New Year's and are looking forward to 2010.

So this time I have an excuse.....our computer has been down so I haven't been able to update but this is my new year's resolution so I will be on the ball again soon.
Not too much going on right now except all of the craziness from the holidays. Justin and Cade are both doing great and we are all having so much fun right now. Cade is at an awesome age and brings a smile to our faces with everything that we do. We hate to be away from him for a minute because he is such a joy to be around. Tonight was another successful potty night. They are not regular yet but at least they are starting. He does still poo-poo in the bath tub every chance he gets.......which still grosses me out to no end. He also pees in the tub now too and he thinks it is hilarious. I guess he gets his sense of humor from his daddy:)
We are still having some attempted biting issues at school and I got the official "warning" from the daycare director that he will be kicked out if he bites again.....REALLY???? He is 18m old and everyone says this is a normal phase. Surely the daycare has had this issue prior to my little man and he is an angel majority of the time so I'm not too sure what is going on. Regardless we have started the search for a new daycare because we all know that he will bite again. It's just a matter of time before someone tries to take his toy or before he gets frustrated. Heck, I would probably bite too if I couldn't tell people to get out of my space or to express what I wanted or needed. Just think how frustrating that would be....
We are finishing up our shopping for Cade's Christmas right now and I hate to say it but he is getting a tea set from Santa. We went over to a friend's house last week and Cade had the best time playing tea with his little girl. She kept coming over and grabbing Cade's head and forcing him to drink tea which Cade politely played along and kept saying Mmmm every time she would do it. It was too cute. Of course Justin about died when he saw Cade sitting at the little flowery table holding a Cinderella tea cup. It's all in good fun and really girls toys are so much more fun than boys. I will post a pic of Cade and daddy drinking tea on Christmas morning soon!!!
