Jedi in Training

I won't be surprised if Ryan's first words are "Star Wars" since it is pretty much all Star Wars all the time around here. Kyle got an "Ultimate Guide" book for Christmas and has devoured it. He was a little disappointed that the book indicated Jedi's were selected and began training when they were babies. Up until then, I think he really thought we would run into a Jedi at some point and he would be "chosen". In addition to practicing his light saber skills, Ryan is busy trying to stand up everywhere. That's all he wants to do, most kids put the balls into the Rock and Roar dino, Ryan grabs the top and stands up. His appetite is slowly improving I think, he is eating almost a jar at most feedings. I am a little worried about Kyle's eating, he has recently stopped eating candy, cookies, ice cream and Sprite and is constantly asking if things are healthy. We took a trip to Kaleidoscope this past weekend with Mom, Ashlie, Lilly and Grant and he didn't even want ice cream. While a little of this would be good, I am worried he has gone to far. I have tried so hard to not make food an issue. All I can think to do is continue down that path. I am happy that I have a new pediatrician now because if he seems to be getting more extreme, I would feel comfortable bringing it up with her. At least Grant is still a somewhat normal kid. I got whole grain pop tarts at the store the other day and he literally picked up the box and kissed it. Ok, maybe that is not exactly normal. Even though Kyle was a party pooper on the ice cream, the trip was fun, he is now the perfect age for Kaleidoscope and it is fun to watch him create. I love that he thinks he can draw anything, he has no qualms and if truth be told he draws much better then I can. Grant and Lilly are still to young for the main idea of Kaleidscope, but they enjoyed running around.
