October is here, and I'm sure everyone is as busy as we are with school, work and fall sports in full swing. I hope all is well with everyone. It is getting a bit cooler here in PA, but it feels nice and crisp. I know that is a cliche, but the fall air is crisp. I guess that is why a cliche starts, because it is usually true. I'm sure I wont be praising the cold in a month when Kristina and I are cursing winter and re-living our days in the warm sun of Hawaii.

Here are some pics and videos of Kai. The videos show him giggling, which he has just started to do on occasion. He is also plumping up a bit, as you can see. We go to the doctor in about a week, so we'll see how much weight the little michelin baby has put on.

Kai also has started to eat... well, try to eat... rice cereal. I don't think too much gets down from his mouth to his stomach yet. But he'll get the hang of it. Mi-mi said to wait until we went to the Dr to start feeding him cereal, but we can tell he's ready (maybe we should be nurse practitioners!). He is starting to wake up in the night and ask (cry) for food. And he is getting hungrier quicker and staring at our food when we eat. So we're going to give it a try. Now he is really going to fatten up!

Aunt Jeanette and little Shadow, Casey's best friend, stayed with us for a week before their big move to Houston. The four of us miss them and hope to see them soon. Road trip to Houston anyone???

Here's a picture to show that even such a wonderful baby as Kai has moments to forget!
