"Kai-man" is used frequently by Derrick and I in reference to Kai....... and now he's started to call himself that too! It comes out sounding more like "Kai-men."
Kai has always played independently very well. However, now he's starting to ask for me or daddy or Addie or Scout (the dog) to play with him. "Play trains mama" or "let's build a tower Scout." But the funniest thing is his newest suggestive phrase "should we........."
Here's some common suggestive phrases we hear daily:
"Should we watch the news"
"Should we play trains"
"Should we color a picture"
"Should we read a book"
"Should we have a snack"
"Should we play outside"
He's also directing the phrase toward someone: "Should we watch the news mama" or "should we read a book Addie." It's pretty stinkin' cute.
This pic is one of the times Kai was playing trains with Scout on the carpet. Scout is obviously a good sport about it!
Derrick cleaned up this old school desk we found around camp for Kai. He routered his name and a pencil tray on the top. Kai thinks it's pretty cool.
The other day I was telling Kai we need to call Grandma because she's sick (H1N1 we think) and she wasn't feeling good. Immediately Kai ran to get his colorbook and crayons and said "Kai draw Grandma picture." He knew this would make her feel better. I walked to the back of the house to grab my phone and I could hear him yelling "Grandma get better. I draw you a picture." Kai loves his Grandma. Now we just need to get those pictures in the mail.........

... should we hang out with crystal, dan and baby lincoln soon? YES!
I love the "should we..." I bet you must say that a lot. They pick up on what we say so easily. That's also so sweet about making a card for Grandma. :)
