Well, it didn't take long for him to figure that trick out...Kai is crawling now. He quickly progressed from yelling at his toys to come closer to him to moving closer to his toys. He hasn't figured out how to move his legs yet, but he will happily army-crawl around the house now. He gets so excited when he finds me in other rooms, he beams from ear to ear and giggles with pride. So cute. I've moved past the "omigod he's crawling" terror to "ok, now he can find me wherever I go, so this is good". He will be 6 months on June 9, time is actually going by very quickly now, hard to believe that I will be back at work in 3 short months.

Kira has found a new love - spelling. Grandma Rose taught her how to read "cat", and from this she now reads mom, Kira, and Dad. She will spell out the word to your first and then say what it is, kind of like a spelling bee. She loves it. She is such a smart little girl, I hope that this continues as she gets older. She can count to 20 now too. I have no idea if this is typical of 3 year olds, but it doesn't matter to me - she is happy to keep learning and we are happy to keep teaching.

Kai is learning how to use the computer at a very young age

He is also a typical boy and loves to have the remote control

I think girls are quicker than boys but that sounds advanced to me! Some of the kids in Kael's nursery school don't know that much. It's great that she's so eager to learn!

I love seeing those huge smiles when babies accomplish something and are so proud of themselves! Warms the heart!

Enjoy your last three months with them this small, it does go by super quick!
