Rolly Polly

Kal is rolling all over the place! I went into his room tonight
because he was fussy and found him rolled over in his tummy in his
crib with his arm hanging out the side. He was not happy about that,
but he has to learn sometime. I think he still gets a little
surprised when he rolls over. He also started rolling on his side to
fall asleep. I love seeing him grow!

I'm Growing!

Kal is growing so fast! I heard his first word yesterday...mama. I
was working with him while I was making dinner and he was doing pretty
good at his mmmm sound. Then he was upset at me later that night
because i was giving him nose drops. While he was struggling to get
away, he said mama. He probably would have said something else, if he
knew more words. :)

Kal just started on rice cereal this week. I think he likes it. He
opens his mouth pretty wide to smile when I say "yum, yum, yum, yum",
so I slide a spoonful in. Ethan wasn't really into cereal, so I don't
have high hopes. In fact, Ethan wasn't a big fan of being spoon fed at
all, so it will be interesting to see what kal thinks.

Kal's face lights up when he sees familiar faces, especially Ethan. I
know they are going to be such good friends when they are older. Here
are some recent pics of them together.

Up, up and away!

Ethan told me that when he grows up, he is going to fly like superman!
What an exciting imagination!

Interesting things Ethan did this week....

Remember... this boy isn't even 3 years old yet:

1. Invented his own booty shaking dance.
2. Dressed like a Knight and danced to his backyardagains "I'm a knight thats right" song.
3. Used the iPad to make drawings with stickers and emailed it on his own to Mom, Dad, Grandpa, and Grandma.  
4. Sent 10 more of the above drawings once he realized how to type in the email addresses & do it on his own.
5. Grabbed a microphone from the xbox and proceeded to sing multiple songs to mom and dad.
6. Used the iPod remote control to play JayZ Forever Young over and over.  He also sings to this song.
7. Listened to "Peaches" by The Presidents of the USA over and over and then started singing the song.
8. Looked for sympathy from Dad: "Dad, Mommy's Teasing Me!"

1+1 = Number 2 dad!

That's according to Ethan!  This little boy....Goodness!  So on our way home today I thought I would teach Ethan some math and start working on that since he's pretty much mastered his ABCs and Can count to about 20 no big deal.  So I asked him in the car on the way home: "Ethan... what's 1 + 1.... there was silence... then I said use your words... do you know what 1 + 1 is? " I fully expected him to just say no... to which I would reply with the answer.  Ethan suprised me though... out of the blue he said "its number 2 daddy" with a big smile on his face!   I was floored!  We hadn't worked on that before .... i suppose he was paying attention at school.... since he's not even 3 years old yet I'm pretty impressed!
