So much to report....
Last weekend Kai and I went to get some flowers and planted them in our big pot. Now everyday she waters her flowers and speaks to them. She has taken such pride in her flowers. She now also wants to weed the garden everyday!
I just caught her standing like this and I stole the picture, wonder what was going through her mind?
Kailey is talking up a storm. She has learnt the phrase - 'whats that?'
*If you ask her something like, 'why did you do that' she will answer 'I can't know'
*Her best think in the world to do is to cook dinner in her kitchen
*She loves her brother and if he cries she says ' Mummy, Debin crying - he need dummy (passifier)' or she will tell me 'he need eat' She is very concerned about him.
*She holds a pad of paper and tells me that she is going to draw my picture then shows me some oval with squiggles with so much pride that she just drew me.
*Her clothes are a big deal too, I better suggest the correct outfits in the morning and oh boy the shoes are a big deal too!!!
*She insists on wearing purfume - I have to pretend spriz her!
*She plays her imagination games all day long for example, when we go to the gym there are bushes, she will say 'mummy I stuck - help' then I have to pretend I have a rope, throw it to her and pull her out. This happends in two bushes, everday - I have now scheduled time for this!
The list goes on, but she just cracks me up all day long!
She has also taken to showers like mommy, she has to do most things like mommy lately, and how she wears her towls is just one of them.
Deric's mom came out to see us around 4th July week, here is her reading to Kai.
Kai and Grandma at the 4th July celebrations
Grandma meeting Devin for the first time
Ethan and Kai at 4th July riding pony's
I made Kai an outfit with the paper from the move, which she then had to ......
Dress her brother up (again)
Last weekend we went to Pikes place in Seattle it was great! Kailey loved the throwing of the fish, for me I was happy to find an H&M and went shopping!!!
And then there is my little boy, he is such a 'coodie pie' as Kai says. He now has 4 teeth and is such a light in our lives. Over the past few weeks it's like he has just woken up and the world is the most interesting amazing place. He is so reactive to everything around him. I love his reactions and his continuous arm flapping.
I love this picture!!
Kai loves to dress her brother up - here she insisted he was a fairy and must come fly with her. It went something like this....
'come brader, come fwi (fly)'
'I pretty fairy, I fwi'
And that's all I have for now - we are having Kai's half birthday this weekend with Aunt Chanele and Ethan. It will be nice for four reasons, 1. with her birthday in winter she misses out on summer gifts 2. Cool for Deric to have a birthday with her, 3. a year is a long time for a little girl, 4. Mommy and Daddy just love an excuse to spoil her.
Devin had one too on his 6 month birtday - we call them HAP BIR'S

The correct use of house hold objects
It’s about time we all learn the correct use of common house hold objects. I thought I would educate you all. Kailey has shown me the way and was totally prepared to model what the following things are used for…..
A sieve?
No! it's really a space helmet used to fly to the moon!
A toy dinosaur????
No, it's a trumpet!
A paper towl roll?
No, it's a telescope to find whales!
A laundry basket?
No, it's a fishing boat!
A rolling pin?
No, it's a walking stick!
A monitor?
No, it's a cell phone!
A broom?
No, it's a witches flying broom (note the mean witch face)
So now you know! Next time you fly to the moon, go whale watching , go on a long walk, or want to go fishing you know what you need to take!
Your welcome!

HAPPY FATHERS DAY DADDY!!!
Happy Fathers day Daddy!!
I started this photo shoot with the image in my mind of two children sitting down (still), staring at the same time into the camera and giving me a big smile..... it did not quite work out like that!!! Here is the photo shoot for you to see, I hope you enjoy and know we are thinking of you today!
Love you! Hurry home we miss you!!!!
The begining was quiet civil - Devin was very interested in what was happening
Then Kailey became interested and just wanted to let me know it was Devin who broke the sign
She tried to get the sign away from him...
...and in the process it tore more - she was very upset with this
So she stood away from him so he could not break it anymore!
Eventually I got them back together
But she would not hold it up for me
She lost interest and Devin got his sign back
It was destroyed!
But who cares when it was done by such a cutie pie!!!
Happy Fathers day to Nampa and Grandpa too!!! We love you lots and are so happy your our parents and our kids grandparents!

Brother and Sisters
I don't have much to say, so here are some pictures. Both kids are sleeping and I am going to go and enjoy the silence!!!!
He is sitting - so cute, he can sit for a long time, and usually ends up with a nap!
He also has 2 teeth. Dinner is the only time I could catch him laughing so just enjoy the mess!!!!!
Here is how Devin and Kai play!
Kai and I baked a cake for the first time, it was...... messy!!! (life lately is just messy) she was so excited, and we had to put candles in it and sing happy birthday as soon as it was ready.
Sometimes they play well together - well Devin might object to that statement!
