Kai, Sora and I are slowly recovering from the cold. We're all still coughing, but thankfully, Kai's appetite has returned and he's now eating with gusto (fingers crossed that it stays this way!). While Sora never got too sick, she still has a nasty cough as well and will sometimes have uncontrollable coughing fits, poor little girl. The worst is when she coughs and gags, and then subsequently throws up.
We celebrated NYE with some of our church friends. Since this was a family party, it was pretty low-key and we passed time playing King of Tokyo with the kids, though I was mostly trying to make sure Kai didn't destroy the game board. We ended up leaving at 8:30 pm and turned in by 11 pm.. that's just how life is, now that we have kids.
We took Kai and Sora to the Palo Alto Junior Museum and Zoo. Kai absolutely loved the zoo, particularly the turtle and bobcats.
Kai's current favorite continues to be cars. He also loves looking at cars outside the house and will ask Nik to hold him up so he can look out the kitchen window to see the cars and identifies them with an excited, "cah!"
We love Kai's developing sense of humor.. he loves to do things just to make us laugh. When Nik was putting Kai to sleep the other day, Kai repeatedly misidentified the animals in the book they were reading as a "tur-tle", because he knew that it would get a laugh out of Nik. Maybe it was a "you had to be there" moment, but we certainly thought it was awesome. :)
The sad news is that Nik returns to work tomorrow. I'll certainly miss the extra hand around the house and it will be a bit hectic at home until Nik's mom arrives in February. But most of all, I think that Kai and Sora will miss having their papa around all the time, because papa's the fun one. :)
