Kai has been growing and changing like crazy this year... as all 1 year olds do! She has reached many new milestones and continues to do so. Kai's personality is playful, spirited, nurturing, and outgoing. She is still a "Mommy's Girl" (sometimes a "Daddy's Girl") and is happiest when I am holding her so she can be involved with everything I am doing. Kai loves babies and baby dolls and we see such a caring and nurturing side of her coming out. She will rock the baby dolls, cover them up with blankets, dress them, feed them, kiss them, hug them, tuck them into bed... it is precious. Kai also loves to help me around the house. She will help me vacuum, put away dishes, run the dishwasher, help me move clothes from the washer to the dryer, take things to the boys, bring me her diaper & wipes... she is a big helper. Her favorite toy right now (besides baby dolls) is her kitchen. She will pretend like she is making soup, stir it, put the lid on, shake salt & pepper in, then serve it to me. Kai is also a muti-tasker... she will pick up her pretend phone, hold it with her shoulder and ear, and continue to cook at the pretend stove! (Wonder where she learned that??) Kai will entertain herself by sorting and organizing. She loves playing with a stack of cups... she will unstack the cups and then stack then back up forever. Kai also enjoys "nesting" objects, such as plastic eggs ... taking them apart and them putting then back together.
Kai has a wonderful relationship with her brothers. Every morning she will wake up, I will carry her down the stairs, and she will see her brothers and shout, "Hi Boys!" Krue loves to carry her around and protect her. He always makes sure she is happy and safe. He also loves to make her laugh! Kiefer is more of a playmate for Kai. They share many of the same toys... and also fight over them. They love to chase each other, sing together, hug each other, and pick on each other :)
We just can't get enough of our little "Kaiser Buns". She adds so much joy and spunk to our family!

They change so much those first 2 years. And they go by soooo very quickly. She is a little doll. I really enjoyed playing with her last night. It has been a while since Lauren was that age. So fun!
