Kai jumping

I am having a really hard time getting videos to upload to the blog, so I will just have to record here that Kai can now jump (within the last week, his feet are both finally leaving the ground at the same time). He can also now say Daddy, Mama, uh-oh and ME (if you ask him, "who is Kai?", he yells "ME"). And "me" is also the word he now uses if he needs anything (more milk, his turn with the tablet, ... ). =) And we think we heard him say Avery today, but there is not full agreement between the other 4 of us that he actually did..... =)

The last few days

A couple of random shots from January. Kai eating a cantelope rind that he pulled out of the trash can, Audrey and Avery sleeping in their bunkbed, and Iain and our neighbor installing a new microwave. Also, an anniversary present of snow!

Audrey is SIX!

Audrey had cupcakes at school, dinner at Olive Garden (thank you, Mim) and a party with friends at Chuck E. Cheese (she decorated her cake herself with a self-thought-of and self-designed "Mr. 6". And for the very first time since she turned one, she let us sing Happy Birthday to her without tears (birthday #2) or objection (birthdays 3 - 5). =) Audrey, we love you soooooo much! You are smart and funny and beautiful and an amazing artist and have a giggle that makes me laugh every time I hear it. Happy Birthday! (Also included a random pic of Kai and one of the girls and Iain playing Sorry (their new FAVORITE game)!
