Way too long
I know it has been too long since the last post but I blame Hasan. You see he had these two great stories about Kadin to tell and for weeks I have been trying to get him to tell the stories.....alas here I am doing it for him. The post will be short though because I have many pics to put up and I know people rather that anyways. :))
So about 2 weeks ago Hasan, Kadin and I were shopping down in Vancouver. Kadin was not in a cart but instead walking about. Once at the counter Hasan had to take Kadin in his arms to avoid theft, vandalism and other such activities a 20 month old needs to participate in. Well as you can imagine Kadin wasn't interested in avoiding a life of crime. He screamed and tantrumed his way out of the store and at one point was SO angry with Hasan (and this is the part where the story gets good...and well scary) he placed one of his hands behind Hasan's head at the base of his neck....picture it....and his other hand at the front of Hasan's neck...picture it.
Kadin then proceeded to "fake" squeeze his abu's neck while shaking, holding his breathe and turning red....PICTURE IT!!!!
To this day we are still trying to figure out where he picked up and thank god he has not done it since.
On to the second story. Yeah short post my ass. hehe
Soon after the choking incident of '05 Hasan took Kadin swimming at the local pool. While spending time in the hot tub after their long swim they were approached by a young boy of maybe 10 or 11. The conversation went as follows:
Young Boy: Why do you have him? (speaking of Kadin of course)
Hasan: Cause he is my son.
Young Boy: Yeah but he's white.
Hasan: Yeah his mom is white.
Young Boy: But your brown.
Hasan: Well his mom is white so he looks like his mom.
The young boy then slowly walked away, never taking his eyes off the strange combination of white and brown. His curiosity was permitted and funny because he was so young but it makes Hasan and I wonder will people always wonder that same thing?
Now for pictures.
Here is Kadin enjoying some spaghetti. Every kid has these pics at home.
Confusion has set in a bit for Kadin. I am the guilty party. I continue to take Kadin into our bed during the day for his naps. Now at night it isnt going as smoothly as it did. When we take him to his room now he cries to go into ours. I know I have to stop but I like having that time with him. Here we are trying to nap. hehehe
And here are my boys out for their evening walk and later Kadin pics I took from our balcony.
A picutre of Hasan and I trying to force cuteness on him.
Some close ups of our boy. The first is my favorite. Came out kinda artsy.
The next three are of Kadin posing for his next magazine spread! hah
Some hidden talents of Kadin's. Reading the paper is nothing you should see him drink diet coke....NOT!!!!
Reason #1 I didnt want to cut Kadin's hair. It always looks like this....ALWAYS.
Someone really needed a diaper change. :) And as a side note...who does Kadin remind you of in these pics with his gut all hanging out and what not?? Come on WHO!??
Here is Kadin playing peek a boo in the small small space between our headboard and the wall.
And finally a picture of our beautiful baby girl - Daisy. Although in this picutre she appears to be plotting our demise.
