great wheel

The week of August 12th, Caden worked on saying "uh-oh" repeatedly, which still makes me feel just as clumsy the second time around! He also drops things, just so he can say uh oh (like cups from the drawer he was rummaging through). Zane's memorable quote of the week was, "you're not listening to my words!" (I denied his request for something two times in a row...)


Caden also started waving while saying bye, and he was happy holding onto just one hand while walking. Freeing up a hand meant it was much easier to oblige and continue walking around the house.


On Sunday morning we went on a family adventure to go ride the Seattle great wheel on the waterfront. Zane loves looking for it when we drive past it and had been talking about it for quite some time. Zane was pretty nervous to get into it, but once it went around one full rotation, he relaxed and believed us that it wasn't going to go under water. We had a lot of fun, and now Zane talks about riding it again, but next time when it's dark and the wheel is all lit up. :)
