The Things He's Learned

Cayson has learned so much recently! Here are just a few things:

How to pray
Shaun and I have always held hands while praying with each other, especially at mealtime. We started this with Cayson a little while back and now when we say, "Let's pray", he gives us his hands. He hasn't quite learned to close his eyes or bow his head yet, but he definitely is recognizing that we pray and he is learning what to do. Oh, another thing Shaun and I have always done is we give each other a kiss and Cayson does that too!

How to wash his hands
Cayson can just barely see above the bathroom counter now. And when he steps on his stool, he can reach the water, so I'm teaching him how to wash his hands. He gets the biggest kick out of it!

How to climb into his highchair
He just tried this one day and was able to. I always make sure I'm right there, though.

How to play the Wii
Yes, he has his own Mii and he plays tennis all by himself on the Wii. He can actually hit the ball pretty well.


How to throw things in the trash
He learned this a while back, but my blogging has been so sporadic I wasn't sure if I'd posted it or not. After he finishes with a snack that has a wrapper, he likes to go throw it in the trash!

How to blow his nose
Again, he learned how to do this over Christmas, but I couldn't remember if I'd posted it. We weren't really trying to teach him this one, he just copied me! He really hated the bulb thing, too, so it's a good thing he can blow his nose now!

There's so many more things that I know I'm missing, but you get the idea. I love watching him learn new things; it's so fulfilling!
