Work has been busy lately and I haven't posted for a while, so I got a few pictures of Cass today. We have a "Pack n' Play" set up in our living room but really hadn't put Cass in it very much - we primarily just used it to store
Cass's toys so the dogs wouldn't get them. It seemed kind of like a cage so we felt bad putting Cass in there and hadn't even tried it. However, one day when Daddy was watching Cass he put him in there, and Cass loved it! I guess it's no surprise, since there are so many toys in there. If you look close, you'll see an orange "toy" by
Cass's left hand - that's Daddy's beer
koozie that Cass likes to play with. :)
Here's another one of Cass in his Pack n' Play, peeking over the edge. See what he's holding in his hand? It's a rubber spoon that his Great Aunt Linda and Uncle Al gave him, he loves it because the entire thing is thick rubber so it's sort of flimsy and great to chew on. I have heard that around this age kids will pick some sort of toy or blanket as a security item, so I've been waiting to see what he chooses. I think this is it. The last couple nights, he gets a hold of it around 5:00 at night, and it stays with him the rest of the night . . . through dinner, through the bath, through nursing before bed, through brushing his teeth, and into bed. It's hilarious. I sneak into his room once he's asleep and take it out of his crib because I'm a worry-wort . . . I'm sure he can't hurt himself with it, but I worry about some freak accident where he'll choke on it in his crib or something. He doesn't seem to miss it when he wakes up in the morning, but he sure is glad to see it when it reappears during the day!
It's amazing the things that entertain Cass . . . I think he'd pick the spicy
brown mustard bottle over a toy any day. I had to re-arrange our refrigerator so that the plastic condiment bottles were on the lower shelves, because the minute we open the fridge door he's there looking for something to play with.
