Over the past few months Kai has really entered toddlerhood and we have come to understand that this is a whole new world that is a lot of fun, but also full of new challenges. Kai is learning new words every day and since a week or so he has started to combine some of them. For example, he now says "Ernie nou?" (Where Ernie?, "Papa toe" ("To daddy" when he wants to go to daddy) and "Mama boek" if I have to read him a book. Speaking of reading books, Kai has now decided that the proper way to read a book is while sitting under a blanket on the sofa, so even if he wants to read a book by himself he sits down on the sofa and covers himself with a blanket. He loves books and reads his books several times a day. Another thing he has discovered is colouring. He carries his crayons around with him everywhere and (unfortunately) has already combined his two hobbies by making his books a bit more colorful. His play also seems to be evolving as he now likes to put his stuffed animals and Bert&Ernie doll to bed, while telling us to be quiet(shhht) and just like Kai, the dolls usually have to be nursed before the go to sleep. Here are some pictures of Kai with his book on the sofa:
Kai also loves to go outside. On a regular day, by 9 am he will decide that it's really time to go out, grab his shoes and walk to the door. Here are some pictures of walks we have taken with the little guy: Gatineau Park (Pink Lake trail)

We have recently also made some video clips of Kai:
