Kiterrific!

Hello, everyone!
We've been pretty busy these days--much to tell! First, our cats underwent surgery last Tuesday. They had bad teeth, which we had known for some time, but at their last vet visit, he decided a cleaning and more drastic measures were in order. The poor kitties lost three molars collectively, but by now they seem to be feeling back to normal, more or less...I guess less in their case...Lesson learned: When the vet tells you to put some gel on your cats' gums each night, no matter how ridiculous it sounds, just do it!
Logan is doing better at daycare. His report today said, "Logan is learning to make friends!" I just hope once Kaleb, his cousin, is back in the mix he will be as good. He seems to attack when Kaleb is having his diaper changed. Cross your fingers, everyone.
We went to Kite Fest this weekend, the 4th annual celebration in DeKalb. Basically, the townies and other kite enthusiasts get together in a field just north of campus and fly their kites for a few hours. It was a beautiful day, but, sadly, there was little wind. Still, we made the most of it. There was a kite-making booth, so Logan decorated and later flew his little creation. It was easy to coax him into flying his kite because his new game is Chase! So Eric just ran after him, and he took off, kite trailing behind him.
We're also hearing all sorts of funny new words coming out of Logan these days. He says "wawa" for water and "yuck" when he sees something gross. But what we're having the most fun with is teaching him "Foo doo fa fa" from Flight of the Conchords. Auntie Christine turned us on to the show and the song when we visited this summer. So we started singing it, and Logan picked up the "fa fa" and "ay-ya" right away. We'll keep you posted on how the rest of it comes along...
Until then, enjoy a link to the silliness and just imagine Logan chiming in with his little "ay-ya." :)
