Defiance already?

Sometime ago after I had kissed Cayden he wiped my kisses off. It became a bit of a joke for him that he would wipe off our kisses, so Brandon and I would kiss him on the back so he couldn't wipe it off and that would end "the game." He'd always say, in a sing-songy voice: "I wiped your kisses off..."

Well....

Today he was goofing around instead of taking his nap and I spanked him and he said, in a very defiant way: "I wiped your spank off."

Please, don't let it be starting already!!

New things

Cayden has been sick for the past week, but even when he's sick he is so cute and funny. He's been saying so much more lately and really starting to use what we say in his own way.

We were sitting at the dinner table and Cayden and Brandon were arguing about something and Brandon said, "Yes it is" and Cayden said, "No it is" He doesn't quite get the "isn't" part yet:)

I'm not exactly sure if somebody told him to count to 10 when he's angry or what, but today he was upset with me and both times he said, " ajdlljd akdkdj 9 10 11 13" (I don't know if he was counting at the first part or what, I couldn't make out what he was saying)

Also, I asked him how his nap was and he said, "pretty good"

as I write this I realize it's so basic and no big deal, but I guess that just means I'm really a mom, b/c everything new he does is amazing to me:)
