1) One day last week, out of the blue, Cannon kept repeating the following phrase over and over again until I finally figured out what he was saying and what he wanted me to do: "Mama take picture me baby Riley". Apparently I wasn't taking enough pictures of the little guy and his baby sister. When I got the camera out to take his picture, he immediately got up onto the couch, held out his arms to hold his sister, and gave me this little smirk...
2) My mom stayed with us over the weekend for Riley's baby blessing (more pictures to come) and brought him three toy dinosaurs. There was one large, medium, and small dinosaur in the mix. When Cannon played with the dinosaurs, he referred to each one as either "dada, mama, or baby dinosaur". Even though we thought we knew which one was which, Cannon surprised us. The largest dinosaur was the "mama" and the medium size one was the "dada". When my mom tried to correct him and say the daddy dinosaur was the biggest one, he kept holding up the biggest dinosaur in the air and saying, "no, this is the mama", in a funny deep voice. Blaine's response: "Well, that sounds about right"! :)
3) Today Cannon found a little baby doll that his great grandma Riley had given him shortly after he was born and played with it while I was busy dressing, feeding, and changing Riley. When I started to nurse Riley around lunch time, Cannon pulled up his shirt and brought the doll to his chest saying, "Cannon feed baby. Yum, yum".
