Day at the lake

We spent the day at the lake yesterday at Gramma and Grampa's house. Such a gorgeous day and Kira wore her wetsuit and lifejacket and floated around in the lake with Mommy. Gotta love the last few days of summer!

Dinner at Aunt Kathi's

The 3 of us had dinner with Jeff's family at Kathi's house last night and Kira played with her cousins, Mitch and Grant, and the fluffy Persian kitty, Abu. Unfortunately, she decided she's afraid of Great Gramma Evelyn and cries everytime she sees her. Gramma has a great sense of humor about it though and giggles when it happens. Gramma said in all of her 18 grandchildren this is the first time one of them has cried when they see her! Gramma sat next to her on the couch and Kira kept her back to Gramma Evelyn the whole time. She would periodically turn around and look at her and cry! Hopefully it's just a phase that will quickly disappear.

First Swing at the Playground

Weeeeee!!! Kira and her friend, Vance, took a little stroll to the playground today and loved swinging on the swings.

Scootin in a bikini!

Kira has begun her journey around the house via scooting, pulling, rocking, twisting, rolling, and whatever other means she can to get to: _________ (fill in the blank: keys, phone, wipes container, newspaper). I missed the Sunday Target ad because she DESTROYED it to the point of oblivion. Maybe that's a preview to Christmas and we won't need to buy actual presents....just wrap empty boxes! A former student's mom just returned from a trip to Korea and gave Kira the adorable watermelon bikini. It just fits so we had to snap a few pics for posterity!
