Our Crazy Man!

Tyler is feeling much more like himself.

Loves to spin and it is a whole body spin

Some Tylerisms/Updates:

~"Lellow" is the first color he learned (must have been all the Coldplay I listened to while he was developing)

~"Meeno" can either mean DVD, kid's show, or his favorite movie, "Finding Nemo." (Hey, we had a 15 hour flight. Nemo was a lifesaver!!!!)

~Loves to make blowing up sounds...must be a boy

~With a little prompting he can put 3 words together. Favorite phrase: "More please, MOMMY!"

~Lately he has started to tell us he is ready for a nap or bed by crawling up the stairs to put himself to sleep. (Read: Bad parents...don't you know I need to recharge?)

~Loves to paint, color, blow bubbles after taste testing all of the supplies

~"Jigga" was his first Chinese word. It took Peter and I a few weeks to figure out what he was saying. He now knows a few more than we do.

~Kid has no fear and can be found doing sommersaults off the couch arm rests onto the floor below. I have wisely padded the marble as much as possible to cushion his fall.

~New trick yesterday, sneaking up to Truffle, petting him, and then trying to ride him!! Oh my!

Tyler and Daddy took a break from building his police car. Yup, he can climb pretty much anything he would like to. Crazy, little monkey! Thankfully, he has my balance.

A special shout out to Granddaddy. Who knew Tyler liked golf icons? Just need the bridge.

I have a secret.....

"Hi, I am Baby Klug 2.0, Shanghai Edition. Can you guess if I am boy or a girl? I won't tell...well, that is not true. I was very cooperative last week but my Mommy and Daddy want a "surprise." I know! Crazy people! Don't they know, you want to know! See you in a few months."

**We were thrilled to hear and see that all is well with our Shanghai Edition. All of the parts are accounted for and in working order. I am hopeful that this one will not begin to trend large like their big brother. Peter was blown away at the detail they can provide since he was not able to be there at Tyler's big scan. He caught it all on video. If we can figure out how to get it to the US, perhaps you can guess the gender.

Happy Easter!

We had a great, sunny Easter Day in Shanghai. The wind was blowing and about 60 degrees. Enjoyed a nice brunch at Jean Georges with Tyler. Actually, it was too nice.

Ty was really mellow and would not eat much nor drink his OJ. As we found out later in the afternoon, Ty was fighting a fever of 103.4! Since he had not eaten anything in 24 hours and was not racing around like a tornado as usual we decided to ensure that our thermometer was correct and take him to the ER. The DR was very unimpressive, not that we expected them to do anything. Best news of all, the Tylenol drops, that I imported tons of, worked like a charm!! The fever dropped about 3.5 degrees in 2 hours. Nice to know that Tylenol is good for more than just teething pain. Up until now that is about all we have used it for since Ty (Thankfully!) has been unbelievably healthy.

Truffle had his coat trimmed up about a week ago in preparation for his return to the US (do I hear applause 7,000 miles away?). The groomer took off about 4 inches all around leaving him with 3 inches or so. He loves his new 'do, feels like a younger version of himself. I LOVE the softness of his coat. Cannot pet the guy enough, which he soaks up like a champ.

Missing you all! Don't miss the snow though :)
