San in the sun
"San" is 3 in Mandarin. Kai enjoyed his birthday party today. As usual, he loved playing in the fountain. And check out the shirt--thanks Grandma. A legend at 3--let's see what we get at 18.
Those little moments...
Earlier this week we were driving in the car and Kai suddenly shouting, "Dad, the moon is following us! Maybe it's going to the playground too. The moon is doing a good job of following us. It's doing a good job." That last statement comes has an implicit meaning--the moon deserves a sticker.

Kai has a couple blisters on his feet. He looked at them today and said, "Dad, look at my foot! What is that? Let's go to the doctor. So we can ask him what that is."
______________
And tonight at bedtime while working on a word search, he realized the CD playing in the background was telling a story about a boy. He asked, "Dad, what happened to the boy? We'd have to go into the CD player to find out. I'm too big. I don't want the CD player to be broken."

Berry pickin'
We've been a few times this summer, but can't keep up with our neighbor--she picked 72 lbs. of cherries today in 2 hours.

2010 Yurt Outing
 |
| From 2010.06 |
This year's destination was Manzanita. By all measures, this locale trumped last year's (near Bend). The weather was fantasic--it's not often a trip to the Oregon coast will remind you of Hawaii, but oddly this one did. Of course, swimming was still out of the question.
Playing in the sand was Kai's preferred activity--steam rollers included.

We took a bike for Kai and he interpreted the warning label as his "to do" list, reading it off: "first go to the library, then go to Albertson's [grocery], etc."

Kai didn't completely understand "s'more" at the outset, but hearing "chocolate" was good enough for him.

Let me read you a story...
Kai loves to pretend he's the teacher, holding the book facing outwards. It's fun when he picks a book we read often because he usually has enough words memorized that it seems he's really reading to you.

Farmers' markets back in season
The Saturday morning routine includes the library of course, but that's just lure him to the farmers' market. A nice fountain, a playground, live music and good eats help too.

2010 Rose Festival
We found a newspaper dispenser to be a perfect spot from which to watch the Grand Floral Parade...

Long time, no see...
It's been some time since we've posted--plenty of new pictures have been uploaded. Uploading a few videos is still on the to do list.
