Saving His Pennies

My Grandma Wilson got both of our kids piggy banks when they were born.  It wasn't until recently that Kaden cared one whit about this, but now he loves it.  I keep it up on his dresser so he can't play with it and break it, and I have made sure that he doesn't know that it opens!   He did however figure out that if you turn it upside down and shake, then you can put the coins in again.

I had such a terrible time trying to keep Kaden from eating (although he just sucks on them) any coins that managed to escape us.  So I started taking him to his room and getting his piggy bank down every time he found one.  Now instead of putting it in his mouth he brings it to me so we can put it away!  He shows me his coin, then we run to his room where he throws himself down on the floor while I grab the piggy.  I never make him sit while he puts his money in, but that seems to be his preferred way.  He has quite the array of faces for me to enjoy while he plays with his money.

I can't remember what was happening here... I think he was just starting to cheese for the camera.

Sucking in air in his favorite gasping sound.

Oooo
