Chillin' Willin'

Chillin' willin'

Editor's Note: this week's WebAlbum has lots of videos. He's just interacting so well with the world, it's hard to only capture it in still frames.

We've had some fun times over the past few weeks at home. Kai learns quickly about the world around him and experiments with it. He makes me laugh with the fun uses he finds for things (i.e. the basket).

He's gotten used to being in charge of Cosmo's food and will dictate when and how Cosmo gets to eat. While it's good to teach Cosmo that he's fourth-in-line, it's also a bit much to spend an hour eating (30 minutes for him, 30 minutes for the dog). But, we put in time now so everything will be smooth in the future!

He gets in and out of the little red wagon all on his own (without falling!), and he's getting really good about stacking blocks. Now if only we could work on putting things away....

His favorite TV show by far is Yo Gabba Gabba (thanks to Tito Tom and Lucas for getting him addicted). If you haven't seen it yet, you can check out on You Tube here: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=ggrOcBWqHiU Just don't get mad at me if you get the song stuck in your head. Anyways, Kai LOVES this show. So much so, that as soon as he hears the music, he goes RUNNING into the living room to see the TV. And he'll start to make the arm motions that DJ Lance Rock does. It's really pretty cute. Maybe soon he'll be old enough to do the "My Name is Kai! I like to DANCE!" bit.

The last video is my attempt of helping soothe his gums. Thankfully, he last first year molar is in. Now we just have to wait for the four eye teeth (hopefully they'll be less painful since they're pointy). I gave him a fruit icee and either it was too cold or he didn't like the flavor, but he kept making this face. Since he doesn't make that face often about new foods, I found it to be quite funny.
