Clapping for the Steelers

Casey can clap now. Superbowl Sunday she was sitting on the couch with mom and dad and she just started clapping!! We've been working on it for a while now and thought she would never learn it:) Mark, Amy, Kristi and Erica all witnessed...and we got it on video. Speaking of the Superbowl...Casey wore her Terrible Toddler Towel Bib (compliments of Auntie Cousin Blair and Chad) very proudly all day...Yay Steelers!!

She has also started a funny face. She squishes her nose up and makes a sniffing sound (which supposedly Tracy did this when she was younger). Very funny! Peek-a-Boo is definitely a favorite game lately. She loves it when anyone plays it with her, but now she can do peek-a-boo all by herself. She will cover her face with a blanket or bib and then quickly remove it and smile.

Casey also figured out how to climb the stairs. I'm not sure we're ready for all this!

Other than all these new Caseyisms...The week was pretty chill. We went swimming again on Thursday with Sarah and Rowan. Casey is very comfortable in the water and is getting more and more comfortable on her back and being dunked under water. Maybe she'll be wakeboarding this Summer!! Most likely.

Saturday, our neighbor Blakely babysat Casey while mom and dad went to Keystone to snowboard with Mark, Amy and Kristi. It was a beautiful, blue bird sky, sunny day!! Sunday before the big game, we went on a hike to Lily Pad Lakes with Erica and her 2 dogs, Sage and Marley. Frisco was exhausted after the hike and pretty much passed out cold, snoring the rest of the day.

Casey and Frisco are definitely getting used to each other. Tonight, I was sitting on the floor with Casey in my lap and Frisco came over, laid down right next to us and put her head on Casey's legs...so cute!! Now if we could just keep Casey out of Frisco's food and water bowls. She loves pulling herself up on the raised bowls, dipping her hands in the bowls and looking at us, because she knows she is not supposed to be doing it.

We have a few pix and a bunch of videos...
