Shiner and talking

The other day Cason got his first little shiner. He bumped his head on the windowsill and boy was he mad. That night it was swollen but we put some ice on it and by morning it wasn't bad at all. I took these pictures the next morning so it is hard to tell.

Up to this point, Cason has not been overly vocal. He will babble here and there but overall he was more interested in moving and crawling. Just in the past couple of weeks, he has decided he would really start being more vocal. I LOVE hearing his sweet voice. He has definitely babbled things that sound very similar to dadada & mamamama but he doesn't just say mama or dada alone and I'm sure when he does it will take me forever to actually catch it on video. He does recognize several words like ball, book, wave,  clap, cat, etc. and I'm sure before we know it he will be saying them too :)
