Max and Kira genuinely spent a lot of time [almost] playing together this weekend. Kira has always been facinated by Max, but over the past few days they spent a lot of time in the playroom and basement together and there was minimal screaming and "accidental" hitting.
"I want to hold Kia like a baby!" Max said, before he settled for his ever-growing sister sitting beside him.
They love to be silly. Max is clearly a full time/overtime comedian and Kira is following right along in his footsteps, mimicking every silly sound he makes. Their screaming-laughing faces are identical.
Max is trying to learn how to spell and this chalk mat is vastly better than his faithful sharpie.
Max also asked to learning about rhyming and keeps trying to rhyme his friends' names. Tonight after Ben went home Max asked 100 times, "What does Ben sound like?" A little boy? It turns out he was talking about rhyming. He gave a hint first- "an animal". Hen! Of course. His mind is always working.
This may have been the first time Max "changed" Kira's diaper. Seems like that should have happened sooner. Maybe it did, but chances are that Max would have remembered [the date and time and what he was wearing].
Kira had a great time playing with/near Ben and Max. Also she loves to jump. But she still cannot stand without holding on, so if someone asks her to jump she will hop up and down on her tushy. It is so cute!
