Kai Firsts

Kai has had several "firsts" over the last six weeks.

Kai celebrated his first Chinese New Year with fellow adoptees from Taiwan (and, in the case of the picture below, the celebration also included a friend from Guatemala!) For those of you that don't know, this is the Year of the Ox!

Kai had his first "hair tussle" from a girl (the very cute Sarah!) ...


Kai received his first kiss on Chinese New Year from Sarah!


And, Kai ended the New Year by taking advantage of his first opportunity to pull a girl's hair!


In addition to his first Chinese New Year celebration, Kai has since had his first opportunity to help mama clean the floor with his "slobber rag" ... immediately thereafter, he stuffed the rag in his mouth...


Kai discovered he likes spicy food. He had his first spicy black bean burger over the weekend and loved it. We made him another one the following day and he was beating on his highchair just from the smell of it.

Kai has also taken a liking to zesty barbeque soy crisps....


Last, but not least, Kai said "dada" for the first time this weekend (in spite of all the coaching to say "mama") AND he waved for the first time.

Our little boy is growing up.....
