Luckily for us, the runny nose and low-grade fever that I mentioned during the last post didn't turn out to be much. By the next day, the fever was just a memory, although not before Sora caught what Kai had had. Sora still has a little bit of a runny nose and cough, though it's nothing like the last virus that had floored us all.
One of the big joys of having children is watching them figure out the world. Kai is always figuring out new ways to play, the other day, he was playing with the colander on his head, much to everyone's amusement.
We made the mistake of showing Kai the pictures that we take on the camera and so now whenever Kai sees the camera he says, "cheese!" and tries to grab the camera so he can look at the pictures (he especially likes to see the pictures of turtles and ducks). Nik also taught Kai how to take pictures on the camera and looking at the shots that Kai took, he certainly is taking after his papa, the sensitive artist. :)
With the mild California weather, spring is now upon us and Kai loves picking the flowers and playing with the dandelions.
Kai's become quite the little boss, and he will direct me, Nik or grandma to sit next to him by looking at us, patting the seat while saying, "ch-chair?" and nodding his head. Also, whenever he sees Sora drooling, he'll point at her and say, "wa-ter!" until one of us wipes her chin clean (he figured out how to say water during our Hawaii trip, I honestly was a little sad that some of his baby talk, like "wa wa", seems to be going away).
Kai's vocabulary and language comprehension continues to grow and grow.. he's starting to string together words into simple phrases like, "bye bye bay-be!" or "baba shoe".
Kai continues to be the doting older brother, insisting that we put Sora down in her chair so he can see or touch her, hugging her (watching a toddler hug an infant can be scary), wiping her face (also scary), giving his toys to her and now, wanting to hold her. The other day, Kai saw Nik holding Sora and said, "hold?" and then Kai held Sora while sitting in Nik's lap.
I took Sora to her four month well child pedi visit yesterday. I can't believe our little girl is already four months old! Sora's hitting her milestones, pushing up while on her tummy and grabbing for objects, though we still haven't got her sleep quite figured out. Some nights are better than others, but last night definitely wasn't one of those nights. I'm hoping that she'll get better when she gets over the virus, but we'll see.
