Kai turns 2!

Okay, so I am lame mother and don't have any pictures from Ephraim's 4th birthday, which was not that long ago. But we did have fun- we went to Jump Planet with the Higgins then to ice cream afterwards. It was a perfect party for Ephraim and I didn't have to worry about too much planning (which was great since I was feeling lousy at that point).

Some things about Ephraim (yeah, I know the title says Kai but I'm getting there so chill); Ephraim of course follows religiously his big brother and wants to play with and o pretty much everything he does. He loves cars, sweets, destroying things, and hanging out with his dad. Ephraim is such a sensitive and sweet little guy, he loves to snuggle and wants to make everyone happy. He can make the funniest expressions especially his sad and mad faces. We love you Eph, and are so happy that you came to our family!

Okay, on the Kai...We did a small home birthday for Kai with a couple of close families who we do Family Home Evening with. We ordered pizza and I made a race car cake. It was a nice quiet party- Kai loved it!

About my little Kai-guy. Kai is such a Mommy's boy (the only one I have really). He loves to snuggle and hug his mommy and he melts my heart every day. I have such a hard time disciplining him or being mad at him like I did his brothers at this terrible-two-tantrum phase. He loves to hug stuffed animals and totally adores my cat. I think the cats will gravitate towards him when he gets a bit older- as he often feeds them and pets Ash. He loves to read books and just have one-on-one goofy time. He is a major climber; getting into my things CONSTANTLY and no longer sleeps in his crib (because he won't stay in it). He likes to make funny faces and be silly to make you laugh. I will miss him as the baby! I love this little boy to the moon!!!

And I hope all goes well with your pregnancy (I'm sorry to hear about your scare, but glad all is well now) and job search. (I didn't know about either one!) Please keep us posted on how things go!; March 11, 2009 at 6:34 PM

Funny Things my Kids Say

Eph: When we both grow up and live next to eachother maybe when your mother (wife) leaves and my mother (wife) leaves I can sneak up and go to your house and we can play. Clay: Adults don't play and it's not your mom it's your wife.
Mom: Ouch, my foot is really hurting! Kai: You're still alive Momma.
Kai and I were going back and forth with the,"I love you to the moon, I love you to the sun, etc." I said, "I love you to Venus" and Kai responded, "I love you to the penis"...LOL!
Clay: Ephraim, why do you always copy me? Ephraim: Because I love ya.
Kai was playing with his train the other day and I overheard him saying, "You can do it Thomas" and of course I was thinking Thomas the kid's engine, and then I heard him say, " You can do it, Thomas Monson"...LOL!
Kai always sleeps in my bed. One day I asked him why he didn't like his bed and he said,"It's too fluffy."
Whenever asked any question from "What is your name?" to "What do you want to do today?", Kai always responds with "Quesadilla".
Kai spent a couple months calling everyone "boob-butt" (boob was taken from the recent Horton Hears a Who movie).
When Kai wants to be picked up he says, "Grab me".
All my boys sing the song Paradise City by Guns N' Roses...embarassing.
When you ask Kai his name he says "Coc-head"- he means coconut head.
In between Conference sessions they played the movie "The Other side of Heaven" and during the scene where the rats are chewing on his feet Kai yells, "Wake up Dude!"
Ephraim says' That's ridiculous!"
When I ask Kai anything he shakes his head violently and says, "No-no!"
Clay told me that he was making funny faces in his class and that the girls were laughing. I asked him if the boys laughed too; he said, "no, they got mad". He told me he likes girls better then boys because they're "pretty". Oh boy!
Clay had some food stuck in his throat and I told him to drink some water to wash it down. He said, "I think I need to use a screw to get it out"- OUCH!
I told Clay that if he ate all his veggies he would be big and strong like his daddy. He said, " Well, that's not strong enough".
Clay turned to me after a meal and said, "Thanks for making dinner Mom". Then he turned to Jon and said, "Thanks, Dad". Jon responded a bit surprised, "What for, I didn't do anything?" Clay replied, "For working". WOW!
Josh came over and was checking out our pear tree in the front yard and Clay put his face up real close to him and said, "Jesus made the pears, Uncle Josh." Josh said he felt like he was in church! HA HA
Clay was being a stinker and I told him to "please be more obedient Clayton Ryan" and he responded, "I'm not Clayton I'm Nephi" and my mom told him that Nephi would be obedient to his parents. So, after some thought he replied, "Oh, I'm not Nephi".
When they don't like a food the boys say its too "spicy".
When something is too hard for the boys to do they say its too "heavy".
My boys both say, "I don't want that ever ever again, so there!"
Clay informed me the other day that he also liked Momma's milk (like baby Kai). I told him that he drank cow's milk like Mommy and Daddy and after a moments thought he said "No, I just drink seahorse milk!"
