I finished the crowns this morning. Fitting for our little Prince on his Birthday.
We celebrated all day. Luk went with Eric to pick up his cake. It wasn't as ordered but he loved it. We left at noon for the raptor center. It was a perfect fall day. We enjoyed our time there. The flying demonstration was cool. Kai missed the point and made our time there about jostling for position on the benches. Oh how I wish we could use reasoning with him.
We came home to make dumplings. Once I was set up stuffing them Eric took Luk, Fei and Jia with him to drop Lili at work. They stopped at the library on the way home. Jia is all about Magic Treehouse books and she wanted one to read at home. I thought she didn't care for them and passed ours all on. Lili and Fei used to love them. Now as I type this Jia is curled behind me reading out loud to me. We didn’t think Kai could manage the library today so he stayed with me at home.
We did face paints, tattoos and had fun with TMNT masks(Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles).
It was a great day.
Kai asked for a turn of face painting!
It was a challenging day with Kai but on the sunny side of things...he asked for face paint.
Luk got a super cool gift from Gramma. It's a talking robot/car tranformer, remote controlled and it does 100 things. It's what he wanted. It does WAY more than he expected.
Jia had to be removed from the super cool new toy. She went and got her super cool robot/unicorn to make herself feel better.
This might be Luk's entire focus for quite a while.
Too funny. Except Kai hated it.
We tried again minus Kai.
Jia said the pictures were too dark and blurry. She wanted her own picture.
Working miniature tools from me.
Kai wants them badly so Luk and I are going to hide them from him. We spend a lot of time working at keeping Luk's things out of Kai's reach.
Kai is incredibly interested in Luk's new remote Transformer. He would break/destroy it in minutes. We've all made it clear that it's off limits. We've reminded him of his Birthday gifts and his giant Lightning McQueen. He took the stickers off his car and Eric fixed it and he got it back tonight as Luk got his toy. In the end we'll sadly most likely need to supervise the toy.
