Visit to Dr. Cislak


Uncle Seriy is playing with the kids (and by the way, if you watch till the end, I am totally kidding about Cliff and internet:))


Chatty Kira

7 months

I thought I'd add just a bit more about her while she's still 7.
Earlier this month Kira started crawling on her fours with her belly off the floor. She usually doesn't get into trouble and happily plays with her toys in the living room.
She's been going back and forth between taking 3-4 naps or just 2. Some days she takes 2 long naps (pretty rarely, though) , and other days those naps are broken into 30-40 minute increments making it up to 4 naps a day.
She's been "talking" a lot lately using different consonants. She says "mama" and I can bet that some of those times she means what she says, like when she wants me to pick her up or when she sees me.
Stranger and separation anxieties are growing stronger. You thought Aaron had those issues? You should see Kira:) Though, she's usually pretty good with Cliff.

Kira reminds me Aaron a lot when he was that little and yet they're so different. It's amazing. Kira is a better eater than Aaron was at this age but she's not gaining nearly as many pounds as he was. She weighs around 17 lb right now. Tall and slim.

Kira is 7 months old

Without being partial Kira is the cutest little girl I have ever seen and I am blessed to have her as my daughter. It's getting harder to take a picture of her just sitting. She's constantly pulling something into her mouth. She's a content and happy baby, loving and gentle.

Triple Trouble

We're enjoying a visit from the cousins. The boys are having a blast. In the morning we went to the park where this picture (and others in the album) were taken, and after the afternoon nap we headed to the pool for about an hour before dinner. Tomorrow is the Aaron's first 3rd Birthday celebration.
