Kira-cam

The cutest little Gator girl there ever was!

"1-2-3 COUGARS!" Max's pre-game chant game is strong

Breakfast in bed

Pizza/scream party

Max found someone that loves making pizza as much as he does- Sadie!

This was the quietest one second of a very loud play date. The good news is there were not really any tears (except from maybe a newly deaf mom or two)!

Dr. Max had a great day at school today

Early morning iPad/waffle/Max induced smiles

Max brought Kira the iPad and opened her favorite (only) game

Kira had her belated 15 month check-up today. The appointment included 4 shots, so of course we procrastinated as long as possible. In true Kira form, she did not let the pain keep her down long; daddy quickly cheered her up and she was back to happy in no time. Despite her yummy little belly, she is just 10th percentile for weight, but 75th for height; nice and tall just like her daddy and brother. She is not quite walking on her own, but she cruises along the furniture and climbs the stairs quicker each day. She crawls occasionally, but scooting is most certainly her top mode of transportation, with her second favorite being daddy's arms. The doctor said she is a good communicator as evidenced by this:

Daddy: "Kira go to the chair and stand up"

Kira: scoot, scoot, pick up a Cheerio and eat it (no biggy, the doctor said the floors were clean since it was the first appointment of the day), grab chair, stand, smile

Here expansive vocabulary includes:
Daddy (her favorite word!)
Mama
Minnie (her favorite character!)
Daisy
that

When Kira wants something she points to it and points [slams her pointer finger into her chest] to it repeatedly. Not only is it insanely adorable, but it is very effective!

Kira is 15 months at its finest!

The smile after the shots- she is a happy little trooper!

Nothing makes Kira as happy as Max!

She would have let him throw her down the slide 100 times

Which would result in 100 pictures!

To be followed by wearing 100 (8) Ninja Turtle masks

Breath of fresh air

Max and Kira enjoyed the snow-free outdoors!

It was a real laid back afternoon once Max spent his birthday Toys R Us gift card on a Nerf gun. He was generous enough to get two so that a friend [Pa!] could play/shoot/scream, too.

Joy ride with grandma

Max and Kira had a lot of fun at the toy store today

Max loved and hugged the Ninja Turtles

Kira's home!

Kira adores Minnie and Daisey; she snuggles with their picture on this sofa and it is possible she says "Daisey".

Watch out Kira

It was "Jersey Day" at Max's school, and while Max always wishes it was "PJ Day", he was excited that he and Miss Julietwere wearing matching Giants jerseys.
