It's hard to believe that Cash will be two in a little over a month from now. All the remnants of babyhood seem have completely shed off of him in the last few weeks and he is such a little boy now - running, talking up a storm, doing most everything for himself. Time really does fly... Cash at 22.5 months:

Week of the Young Child

This week at school was titled "The Week of the Young Child". In truth, I'm not really sure what all this entails, but for Cash it involved dressing up in a silly outfit each day and eating extra snacks. It was cute enough though so hopefully he'll get to do it again next year when he understands a bit more why I'm forcing him to wear a superhero cape and share his beloved Veggie Straws with his friends. Monday was silly sock day. Since Cash's "silly socks" consisted of on regular navy sock paired with a navy stripe sock, I figured it wasn't worth getting a picture. Tuesday was "Pajamas and Popcorn" day except for the toddler room which was "Pajamas and Cheetos due to the popcorn choking hazard" day. Cash wore Batman's finest:

Wednesday was Hat Day! I picked up a turtle baseball hat for Cash at Gymboree on clearance. Unbeknownst by this picture, he actually enjoyed wearing it. And he looks darn cute in a baseball hat if I do say so myself:

Thursday was "Mix Match" day. This was Mommy's least favorite day:

Finally today was "Costume Day" and I sent Cash as Captain Heartbreaker using a pajama top and a $6 cape I found at Target. Cash wasn't particularly thrilled about the cape:

Visit from the Babas

Mollie and Old Grandad came to visit last week. Cash has started to call all of his grandparents "Baba" - I think this stems from my dad's grandparent name of "Papa" and it being the easiest one for him to pronounce so far so hence, all grandparents are "Baba". We'll see how long this sticks. We had a great time last week - Cash spent a lot of time introducing them to the world of Dora and Elmo, taking rides around with Mollie, and honking noses. Can't wait until we see the Babas again soon!
