Where's ma-ma

First came "gee" (hungry), then came "da-da", now is "ba-ba", but the only time "ma-ma" is spoken is when Kyle is trying to teach him to crawl and he is madder/sadder than a hornet and looks at me as if to say "save me ma-ma". I feel so loved. ha ha You'd think as much of a mama's boy as he is, he would use the term more often

Kisses

So it used to be that Kodiak would give anyone a slobbery kiss on the cheek who asked him, but over the last little while he's become very particular. For example, my mom was here the other day and Kodiak refused to give me a kiss until I turned him so my mom couldn't see him and he gave me a tentative one. When noone is around he is so generous with kisses, but especially when dad is home, he refuses. I think he is hitting that "I'm embarrassed to be seen kissing my mom" stage a little early.

Pregnancy induced bolimia

So the other day I was playing with Kodiak on the living room floor when morning sickness hit. I made it to the kitchen was all and as I started heaving into the garbage can, I hear this faint noise coming from the living room. I heaved and then coughed and then you here this "little heave and two fake coughs". Kodiak was imitating every sound I made. It sounded so much like me, I had to double check I wasn't throwing up in two rooms. I peeked in on him and he was casually playing with his toys on the floor and saying "heave, cough cough, pause, heave, cough cough." He seriously makes my day every day.

Kucky Kucky

SO I'm not as good of a mom as I should be because when I put Kodiak in his bouncer, sometimes there are several crumbs or pieces of food still on it from the day or two before. When I catch him going for them to eat them, I say (very seriously) kucky Kodiak, don't you eat that. It seems the more serious I am with him, the bigger grins he gives me and the faster he shoves them in his mouth. Well, yesterday, he put some in his mouth and offered me his hand with some still in it, as if to say, want some mom (with the most innocent grin of course). Even as I'm writing this, he is looking for crumbs....what am I gonna do with him. ha ha ha

Kodiak is a fighter

Turns out, Kodiak has pneumonia on top of RSV but was kickin its butt and so they didn't have to put him in the hospital. What a tough guy.

Poor little guy

I took Kodiak in for a well child check and it turns out he has RSV. Luckily he has a strong immune system and is tougher than nails. He's fighting it really well, but so far isn't improving...

Land and its creatures....

So Kyle and I got our land surveyed ($500 bucks was cheap, ugh!) and we came home one night and found 3 stakes in our yard, and when you connect them, it cut the master bedroom in half and took out the kitchen and laundry room. So Kyle talked to the guy and apparently we own our whole house (there were 2 stakes we didn't see), across the road on the farmer's land, into one of the farmer's corrals, and to the back of our yard.Still messed up but at least we own our house. That same night we walked inside and Kyle went downstairs to get something and found out that a new critter has found our basement to be a suitable home. Now if only we could catch it....
