I know, it's completely embarrassing that I haven't been on the blog since March, but you know how it is....I've been so busy! Since I feel ill today and think I have a fever, I have to sit down, so I figured that I'd grace you all with a few pics of what we've been up to lately.
Kaya will be 2 next month and she is already quite the talker. She has this talent (erhmm..a tad annoying) of repeating a single word over and over for hours. Here is an example of our morning a few days ago:
Me: Kai, you want some eggs for breakfast?
Kaya:egg, egg, egg, egg, egg, egg,egg, egg, egg,egg, egg, egg,egg, egg, egg,egg, egg, egg,egg, egg, egg,egg, egg, egg,egg, egg, egg,egg, egg, egg,egg, egg, egg,egg, egg, egg,egg, egg, egg,egg, egg, egg,egg, egg, egg,egg, egg, egg,egg, egg, egg,egg, egg, egg,egg, egg, egg....

Me: (silently in my mind, while envisioning killing all chickens)AHHHHHHHH!
That's right she did indeed have an egg for breakfast - I am starting to hate chickens!
Me: Hey Kaya, what came first, the chicken or the egg?
Kaya: egg, egg, egg, egg, egg, egg, egg,egg, egg, egg,egg, egg, egg,egg, egg, egg,egg, egg, egg,egg, egg, egg,egg, egg, egg,egg, egg, egg,egg, egg, egg,egg, egg, egg,egg, egg, egg,egg, egg, egg,egg, egg, egg,egg, egg, egg,egg, egg, egg,egg, egg, egg,egg, egg, egg,egg, egg, egg....
