Kira is six months old!

Another month has flown by and it seems that Kira is already six months old.   She does not bring us joy, she is joy, and we are just so lucky to have her.  

Here are six Kira facts for six months of Kira.  Hopefully putting these in writing is not a jinx!

1. First and most importantly, she sleeps through the night.  She still takes two solid naps, has never flat out refused sleep, and always wakes up happy.
2.  She loves to eat!  Sweet potatoes, apples, bananas, and oatmeal are her favorites, but she also eats zucchini, peas, kale, spinach, pears, blueberries, and carrots.  The only food she dislikes so far are avocados, but that is okay because when life gives you disguarded baby avocado, make guacamole for mom and dad!
3. Somewhat related to food- her poops smell like pretzels!  Daddy pointed out this odd but true fact.
3. She is so good at diaper changes.  As soon as she gets on the changing table, she lifts her legs up and holds them through the whole change.  She has not resisted (tossed wildly like someone else) one single diaper change. 
4. Her teeth and hair are just around the corner; she has the drool and soft light brown spikes to prove it, respectively.
5. She loves to cuddle/eat her ribbon blankey from Jen, exactly how Max eats his Yankee blankey (also from Jen) to this day.
6. In her spare time (aka: anytime she is not asleep), her favorite activity is being in the jumperoo (just like Max) but she is also spending lots of mom-mandated time strengthening her abs so she can sit up. 

The happiness streak continues- six months and counting.  Half a year and happy every single day.

They love each other so much!

 

Kira's wake-up mood is the best!

Haircut!  Refused the "cape" and demanded a toy and several lollipops.
