The Princess

Kai is becoming a princess before our eyes. She will find her shoes and hat, bring them to me and demand I put them on her. If I try to put the "wrong" shoes on her, she has a fit. She will even find a new pair of shoes to put on if she has been wearing the same ones all day. She also likes to have a bow in her hair. Her favorite toy is my cell phone. She was playing with the buttons while lounging back on a pillow. It looked like she was texting her friends. She typically will hold it to her ear and babble. It is very cute. She also loves to brush her hair and have it brushed for her. That almost always calms her down if she is upset-not that she ever is. Landon on the other hand, hates to have his shoes on, but has started to as for his hat when outside. He is old enough to realize that it blocks the sun and he can see much better. He wears one of Chad's hats so it is too big, but he loves it.

we got back from Belize a few days ago. It was the 1st time I had left Kai and it was for 10 days. It seems both kids did fine, but were a little out of sorts after the 1st few days. I got in too late to see them, so the next morning I got Kai out of her crib when she woke up. The look on her face said she couldn't believe it was me. She kept looking at me every few minutes with a huge smile on her face. She has been clinging since then, but is getting better. Landon tells me he was worried about me when I was gone, but is very happy we are back. He finally decided he wanted to go swimming, but that since he was just walking in the water, he didn't need to wear trunks, because those are for swimming. The first few times he went at my parent's house, he was au natural, It wasn't until the last couple of days that he wore undies. I have explained to him that he needs to wear his trunks and he did put them on yesterday to go. Anyway, we all are back at the house-for a few weeks anyway.
