Two Things:

One: Aren't onesies awesome? I wish I could wander around in a onesie. What if we all did? We'd look like a bunch of big babies... hahaha

Two: Cadiem's new favorite pastime is ripping the keys off of my computer. I have been searching for my control and caps lock keys for the last hour... I was just finishing my coffee--and found them, in the bottom of my coffee mug! Grrrr!

Cadiem is a climbing machine!

17.5 Months! Cadiem started climbing a few days ago. His new favorite thing is to climb onto the ottoman in the playroom with a book and his sippy cup. As you can see from the above picture, with his favorite book: "If you give a pig a pancake". Which is probably one of my least favorite! Haha. He also has been going up the stairs himself, but hasn't quite figured out the going down part. He has also figured out how to open the pantry (from underneath since he can't reach the handle!) which is full of two of his favorite things, food and cleaning supplies. He's still obsessed with the swiffer! Now if only he'd learn to talk! He does imitate things we say, but you'd never know what he's saying out of context.
Jeff and I have both been on the job hunt. He now has three! Hahaha. Always so ambitious! I've applied to several at tech, so hopefully I'll snag one of them.
We had a visit last week from my grandma plus three of my great aunts and a great uncle. I haven't seen the extended family in several years--so it was great to see them and I'm glad they got to finally meet Cadiem :) My mom also visited prior to that, and Cadiem now recognizes her voice over the phone. After she left, he would hear her on the phone and point to the guest room.
I turned the big 31 a few weeks ago. We had Wally and Mary over (ian you suck!) and grilled up some yummy Spanish brined pork tenderloin followed by lots o wine. Surprised? Haha. Tomorrow it's Mary's turn, so we're having a few people over.
I guess that's about it! I hear a child crying upstairs... :)
