Again on the carousel at the Zoo! He wants to ride it the whole time, so much for the animals!Koen's Favorite shows right now:
*Super Why- Can I just say I can't wait for this to come out on DVD. He loves this show. Too bad he isn't always awake when it is on. I think he likes anything with letters, the kids loves letters and I think they come pretty easy for him.
*"credibles" and "monsters" are the new favs! I am so glad to not see cars for like a month now! All though he is totally obsessed with anything cars he sees.
Fav toys:
*Elmo song book Nana gave him for Christmas, he makes me sing them like 100 times each!
*Any little cars, trucks, buses, anything of the sort. It is really cute to see him being all boy, laying on the ground driving cars and trucks around.
*Alphabet puzzle and foam letter things...literally anything letters.
Most frequent words or phrases:
*"No please" He is the most paticular kid I have ever met. I really dont understand it. Like here are two examples. If I put my arm on Phil's seat while he is driving, he says "no please, arm off." or today in the car I was singing along and he said "No singing please" I mean at least he is saying please but really why does he care? And I am not joking it is for EVERYTHING!
*"sit by ya" Especially when it is bed time, except then it is "lay by ya"
*"say payer" Everytime we get in the car he thinks we need to say a prayer. It is really cute. Obviously we have been driving long distances in the car that we prayed for, now it is an everyday occurance.
*"I wake up" Mostly when you are trying to put him to bed
*"Konah's ____" or "my _____" Gotta love this one. But how cute that he calls himself Konah
*"Night night beanbee...hide it?" Cause I always tell him he can only have "beanbee" when its bed time, so he tells me to hide it. Its too big of a temptation in plain sight.
*"Wheels bus again" or any other of his favorite songs, the whole time we ride in the car.
*"Chalka Milk peese" Kid loves his chocolate milk.
*"Owie, kiss it?"
*"Big car owies...hold you hold you" He freaks out when cars come, I guess maybe I went a little overboard on letting him know that cars can give you owies...opps!
Favorite Songs:
*"Jee Sunbeam" And he can actually jump now! Both feet at the same time!
*"ABCD"
*"Bitsy Pider"
*"Wheels bus"
*"Boys do it" (Elmo Potty song)
Things he does that get a "you're a little bit kook" response from me:
*saying "peepee potty", taking off his pants and diaper and sit on the potty but doing nothing.*His Mack impression from cars
*wearing his Crocs to bed...I swear they never leave his feet. (thanks Michelle, you got my child addicted)
*tantrums...I swear I am like what on earth are you doing...do you think that's effective?
Things he's recently learned:
*Opposites- up/down, hot/cold, on/off etc
*how to sing most of the words to songs.
*to speak in 4+ word sentences. It seems like since we have been home from UT his talking has gone crazy!
* I think I can officially say he knows his colors and shapes. (maybe minus 1 of each) It is funny he has taken so long to click with it, seeing how he knew all his letters by sight months ago. You would think that would be a lot harder. I swear I thought he was color blind for a while until one day he picked up a pink spoon and said "Tessa's" (cause last time they ate together she used that spoon) then I realized he must see color.
*He went to the Doc today and these are the stats. 27.7 Lbs (30%, thats the highest he has ever been YAHOO! No more Vitamin D milk) 35 3/4 In (75%) and 75% for head.
*Can I please just say my child poo'd in the bathtub today. What the? NEVER before has he done that. I washed him and then walked away and said "when you ready to get out tell me" so like 2 minutes later he was like "eww yuckie momma" over and over and then he said "Towel, get out" So I go in there and am like "whats yuckie?" and look and he is pointing at poo EVERYWHERE! I couldn't believe it. Poor kid has the runs for some reason, so I am hoping that was just a freak accident!
Sorry if I bored you all but I use to be really good at keeping a journal for Ko and not so much anymore so I wanted to get a few things down!

That was a fun post to see all the things about the Ko Man. Wish you were here to go to Lava with us It won't be the same without ya. Maybe we will have to make a winter trip this year that might be fun just up for one night. We are going to have a blast in Nauvoo and Independence. See ya real soon and have a Happy Birthday.
Leash if I forget tomorrow...Happy Birthday!!! Okay I was totally laughing out loud about the "arm off pease" and the "No singing pease" or whatever it was...that is so so funny! Silly kid!
This was hilarious to read! Sounds like you have your hands full with a little talker. "No please!" That is so funny. I laughed when I saw what he calls himself. What a little cuttie pie!!
Not boring at all! I love hearing all of Ko's fun updates and picturing him saying/doing them. He is such a little smartie pants! I love that he is so particular. We really need to see you guys asap!
So Gracie tells me in the car all the time that she doesn't want me to sing... What? I am not that bad of a singer! And Sammy poops in the tub like once a week (usually on Sunday morning when David isn't around to help... so gross). Anyway, it was fun to hear all of those things about Koen. Have you tried www.starfall.com with him. If he likes letters he will LOVE it. Gracie asks me like 10 times a day, "Can I do my letters now?" How fun is it that they are excited about learning!
I love the 'no please'. That is hilarious!
So SUPER WHY!! CAn I just tell you how much Max LOVES that show. It sings the song every day. I look on the internet all the time to see if I can find a DVD. I love it that KO KO likes it!
BTW- HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!!!! I love your guts!
Cute Ko Ko Bean. I can't wait to see him when you guys get home. I sent you a birthday text really early this morning when I was getting ready for work, I hope you got it. I also hope you have a great birthday!!!!
HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHA DEAR! LOVE YOU, HOPE YOUR BIRTHDAY WAS AWESOME! SMOOCHES!
He is getting so big. I am amazed how much he talks.....and letters...I am impressed. We loved watching him last night. Hope you had a great birthday.
I loved reading all these fun things about Koen today! He is so cute! I've been so bad at blogging lately - did you get my message yesterday wishing you Happy Birthday? I was thinking about you....work was just so crazy I didn't have a minute to myself until last night.....so know I hope you had a fun day! Love you guys!
HOw was your birthday Cuz?? I'm excited that you'll be moving back here soon!! You look soo good and healthy in all of your pictures. I bet if I lost 20- 30 pounds you and I would honestly look like twins. haha. That's weird.
Ah, this takes me back. Fun, fun, frustrating, fabulous years of child raising. Love your discriptions! Love, Nana
What a little sweetie! I loved learning all about Ko! And don't worry about the whole bath tub thing, I swear every kid has to do it once. I can't wait to see that cutie again!
I remember our first poop in the bathtub experience. I thought I was going to throw up and I was so mad. Lucky for me, Jace thought it was so gross that he hasn't ever done it since. Hope you don't have another incident either!
