Our New Cousin!

Aunt Pud is going to have our newest baby girl cousin sometime in June. We are really excited. Actually, Auntie Kim will probably have our other new cousin even sooner...it will be a fun month of babies. I always say I can't wait till they pop out!

Kai is checking out the new baby in Aunt Mackenzie's tummy in this picture.

As only a two-year old can, he asked "did you swallow de baby?". She laughed and said no. So then he patted her tummy and said "baby in here?", then he reached, ahem, UP, and asked "baby in here?". More laughing, more no's!

More Kai Words

We thought of a few more of Kai's funnies:

Crockagator- n. any toy, picture or actual alligator or crocodile (We think this is pretty darn creative)!

Becktest- n. toast with jelly or cinnamon sugar served in the morning "More becktest pleeeze!"

My Fip Fops- n. Elena's blue flip flops with pretty butterfly decorations

Puzzle Queen

Did I ever mention that I LOVE puzzles?

When I was 18 months old, I could do my 15 piece wooden one with the little knobs in less than a minute. Then when I was three, I got bored with all the 24 piece numbers, so Mom got me a few 63 piece ones at garage sales...yahoo! Those were fun, and I figured out how to put them together one row at a time...always starting at the bottom and finding each consecutive piece to add at time. Dad and Mom would try to help and start on another section...no way...I wouldn't be ready for that piece. Now that I am four (and I remind everyone that fact daily) I'm doing 100 piece puzzles of Cinderella and Care Bears and Kitties. We have a Curious George one that I haven't tried yet. They are really hard and I usually have help...but yesterday I did the Cinderella one ALL BY MYSELF!!!! I was so excited! Since then I've done it 3 more times alone. I think Mommy is sometimes scared about what she's getting into with homeschooling me in a year or so.

Kai's Dictionary

Kai's a funny little guy...here are some of his spoken thoughts:

Aaaahhh! Mommy, put my dragon helmet back on! (After his "dragon" towel hood falls off).

Eeed Jew! Eeed Jew! (Hold You (Me)! Hold You (Me)!)

Hi Dad! (Yup, just "Hi Dad!" Like he's 5 or something)

I seepy dood last night! (I slept good last night! He hollers this every morning and after each nap)

I shoot da birdies, chew, chew, chew! (Must be from Uncle Bo training)

Hmmm...we're sure there are others...maybe we'll add to this later. Luv, Elena
