Karson's Korner

This past weekend, Grandpa Ron and Uncle Patrick were both using a tape measure to do a little carpentry work. Once they set down the tape measure, Karson picked it right up and started going around to walls, doors, etc and pulling out the tape like he was measuring things. Amazing!

He speaks many words very clearly now. Please - Thank you - Papa - Grandma - Daddy - Mama - Dukey - Puppy - Cheese - Banana - Milk - Cookie - Candy - Hi - Bye - Icky - Done - Potty...which he has now figured out what that means so we got the potty chair out to see if that will spark any interest.

When I get my camera or phone out, he stops and says "Cheese" with a big smile. He must have learned that from his cousin Ella.

He can climb up on the big 4 wheeler, turns the key on and knows where the button is to start it. Scary! No leaving him alone for 1 second.

The doors are all locked, I think we may have to put dead bolts on the top of them. He knows how to get them open and heads out the door. Tonight, he opened our hall pantry - pulled out a bag of chips and proceeded to dump them on the floor. So we had a lesson of "time out" which he does not like and then he helped pick them up and vacuum. He does that well. ;)

When we get ready to leave, he says "Bye" to everyone even if he doesn't know them, if it's to the dog or just to me and I'm the one going with him. He has to give everyone a five or knuckles. Especially at daycare, when Pete or I get there to pick him up he runs to get his coat, gives the daycare lady and her husband a five and then screams "Bye" as he's pushing on the door.

When he sees animals he can relate their sound. His favorite is the ducks on our pond, he says quack quack quite hilariously.

Sunday when he was at Grandma Sandy's, he was downstairs playing with his toys. He opened up the utility room door, and had turned the knob on the water heater so when she went to take a bath that night the water was mysteriously cold.
