Settling Into Real Life

Our household is returning to its normal patterns. The big boys are back in school. They come and go like they always have. Their friends are slowly being introduced to Kai, who seems to take all of this in stride. He continues to be this joyful, inquisitive, little boy.

He's becoming a little more comfortable with the dog and cat. We keep Daisy gated in the garage while Kai's awake. He can now go down the hallway past that gate when she's sitting there. He also "asks" us to bring the cat in for very short spells.


When I say he "asks" I mean he gestures this is what he wants. He's quite the little pantomime and gestures at us all the time. He beckons us to follow him, to sit down beside him, to get up, etc.

He continues to eat quite well, but he's not drinking milk or formula, so we sneak it into his cereal and other "bowl foods". I think we're going to try him on PediaSure and see if he'll take that.


"Hey! These aren't chopsticks!"



He goes to bed about 8:00 PM and will sleep as late as 8:00 AM. He naps from noon to 2:00 PM. He needs all this sleep because when he's up he's going all out!
