The Latest With Ky

I have the silliest little boy! He cracks me up. He is starting to talk more but only a few words actually make sense. He says "no" to everything. Even when he means yes. I told him the other day, "you keep saying that word, I do not think it means what you think it means." He recently started nodding for yes, even though he says no first. Crazy kid. He has an obsession with shoes. He says the word shoes and gets very excited when we put them on him. He doesn't seem to have a favorite pair. He will get up in the morning and that's the first thing he asks for, "shoes?" At the moment he is in his pj's and has his sandals on. He loves to draw. Give him a pencil and paper and he turns into a little artist. It is so cute. He lays on his tummy and puts a lot of thought into what he is drawing. He LOVES Nala. He now calls her "lala" and he will play with her and pet her and even yell at her when he thinks she is being bad. If she goes outside he will yell out the doggy door until she comes back in. Last night he was telling her to sit on the couch, pointing at the spot he wanted her and yelling "sit!" When she finally sat, he sighed like "finally". It was so funny. He loves to run. We went to the summerfest and he ran all over just laughing as I chased him. Even with all that wind he didn't seem to mind. He runs in the yard with Nala and down the halls at church. Which is a problem. He used to be so good at sitting on the bench, revrently. Now he just wants to run out to the hall and run all over the church. Ugh, I hope he snaps out of that soon. I am tired of spending sacrament in the halls trying to keep up with him. He is just like his mommy, everyone says. He is a clean freak. Give him a napkin, paper towel, wipe, or wash cloth and he will clean whatever he can find. He wipes up spills and cleans his toys and washes his hands and face. If he finds something on the floor he will bring it to me and then put it in the garbage if I ask him to. If anyone reading this has seen my facebook lately they will have seen the video of him cleaning the tub last night. He plays a lot of pretend. He know train and says chuh chuh choo choo! And he says beep beep for every car he sees. He makes pretend food with his kitchen and bring it to Jake and I to eat. He is quite the little cook. He still talks on his play phone a lot. The conversations with his friends have gotten longer and now start with hello and end with bye-bye. He is starting to ask questions like, "whas dat?" And "where's it?" And he mumbles other questions that I'm not sure how to answer cuz I can't figure out what he's saying. He is a professional at saying "thank you" and we are working on please. If you hand him anything or do anything for him he will say thank you. He is so polite. He is VERY observant. He tries to.curl his eye lashes with my eye lash curler. He know how to brush his teeth and comb his hair. He puts on lotion. And my favorite, he tries to go potty. We got a little training potty from my parents because my brother is done with it and we put it in the bathrrom until we are ready to potty train. He sits on it and asks for a square of tp. I had it to him and he will "wipe his bum" and then put it in the big toilet. Cracks me up. We aren't ready to potty train yet cuz I don't think he talks enough to really let us know when he would need to go. And we need to work on him taking his pants off and on. (we've avoided that for obvious reasons). But for now I think he is getting all the practice he needs by pretending. He does sit on the potty before his bath. I'm hoping one day the water running will give him the urge to go before he gets in the tub. He is quite the dancer. Turn on some music and he shakes that booty. I don't even know where he learned it but it is the cutest thing. One of these days I'll finally catch it on camera. He is practicing for his birthday, I guess. He now know how to blow and thinks its silly. He will blow on his food before he eats, even if it is ice cold. He blows the dandelions and leaves in the yard. And his new fun game is to blow towards me and I act like he is blowing me over. He laughs so hard he can't blow anymore. He is seriously the funniest kid I know. Everyday he comes up with something else that just cracks me up. I wish I could write down all his funny things but I can hardly keep up with him as it is!
