Mom and I have enjoyed our two days off together! We’ve had lots of fun playing, dancing, singing, learning, and cooking! We made some muffins this morning. My favorite part was putting the cup liners in the pan! They were pretty tasty if I do say so myself!
Go Buffs!
I attended my first wrestling match on Saturday! I had SOOOO much fun! I liked cheering for all the guys to do well in their matches, I liked yelling “Go Bradley” the most. I gave out lots of high-fives. I even asked to used the potty in the middle of cheering. The night dragged on and I got a little fussy toward the end, but overall I had a great time. I showed off my headlock skills and talked about my favorite move: the powerbomb! Look out, wrestling is probably in my future!
Shapes
Let me tell you about my favorite shape, the oval, and one of my new favorites, the rhombus.

What Has Canton Been Up To?
Sorry it has been a while since we’ve posted. Mom has been pretty busy since we haven’t had any snow days and Dad is always wrestling…so we try to make the most of our evenings and Sundays when we are together. In addition, we got a new camera everyone is trying to figure out AND our desktop broke, so mom is trying to get more efficient on this Mac.
I done a lot in the past week or so! I can catch a ball most of the time (you still have to throw pretty slow but that’s okay), I love to shout “make” or “miss” when mom, dad, and I shoot hoops. I’m soooo funny, I’ll even shout miss when I trip and fall when I’m running.
I can officially count to 10 and can identify most colors. I tend to get green and blue confused, but I guess I still have time right? I’ve been able to identify circle, square, triangle, and oval (my favorite) for a couple months, now mom is making me learn new ones–I’ve taken quite a liking to the rhombus!
Mom and I have spent a lot of time dancing, but also drawing and writing. She drew an AWESOME Elmo that I love to drag around with me everywhere! I’ve also become quite a helper around the house, my favorite helping chore is to carry in groceries!
I’ve also developed quite an interest in trains. Aunt Rhonda bought me some Thomas the Train underwear and they are my favorite!! So Dad bought a couple Thomas apps for the IPAD and I just LOOOOOVE them. There is a great train table at the library which I have discovered, when we went on Thursday I played for over 30 mins on that thing!! That’s a pretty long time for me to be engaged in something!
I’ll try to get mom to be a little more active on the posting…I’m pretty much in charge here, shouldn’t be a problem.
Oh What Fun It is to Ride…
Mom and Dad FINALLY took me outside to play in the snow! Mom said since it was actually in the double digits (up to 27 today all you FL people!) I was allowed to go out. I had a GREAT time sled riding! I kept saying “sled please….sled…sled” I went soooo many times! I didn’t really like the whole walking back up the hill thing though…I asked to be carried. The funniest thing was when Roxy chased us! I just laughed and laughed! I sure do enjoy all these days off with mom!
Busta Move
Mom and Dad think I’m hilarious. My taste in music is quite diverse, some current favs are: That’s the Way I Like It (KC and the Sunshine Band), C’mon and Ride the Train(Quad City DJs), Mack the Knife (Bobby Darin), Dueling Banjos, and of course anything Elvis. You can definitely see my Floyd roots in my move Mom and Dad have coined “The Stomp”. They’ll have to put me in dance classes soon!

1…2…3…Look at Me!
We’ve been working on counting lately, in between dancing to Elvis songs…not too shabby for 19 months! Enjoy!

Love My Nanny!
Little Red Wagon
I just love my little red wagon! I ask to take lots of rides, Nanny has even taken me on some! We’ve had a great time! I can even pull my stuffed animals around all by myself!

Dance Dance
Nanny and Grandpa are back!!! We’ve had a great time reading, playing, but especially dancing!!! Elvis is becoming my favorite artist and I frequently roam around saying “Hound Dog…Hound Dog” I even say it when they try to trick me playing other songs. We’ve had a great time, I don’t want them to leave! We’re definitely going to have to visit sunny FL soon!
