It’s hard to believe that Kira is 3 months old already. It seems like just yesterday I was getting ready for her to be born; now she’s all grown up
She is doing fantastically. She is smiling all the time, and now is cooing/talking a lot. She has also started laughing; mostly at night when I’m changing her into her pajamas, she will just start chuckling away. It’s so cute, but it’s hard to get her to do it very often yet. She’s also taken to slurping on her fists all the time now, which is pretty cute but gets kind of noisy. She is really the most calm, patient, content little baby I’ve ever been around. I hope it lasts!
Kira marked her 3 month birthday by catching a cold. She probably caught it from her daddy. Joseph was pretty sick with it a week ago, and now Kira (and me unfortunately) are both trying to fight it off. Hopefully by the weekend we’ll all be healthy again.
The weather is starting to get nicer here and there. The other day it got up to over 70 F (21 C) so my mom & dad, Joseph and I loaded Kira in the stroller and walked up to the local restaurant for dinner. It’s a nice 30 minute walk, part of the way through a beautiful cemetery, the rest of the way down the sidewalk in town. It was such a fun evening, and the baby really enjoyed her ride.
Sad news: I have to go back to work on Monday. I’m really really dreading it. My mom will be watching Kira, but I just hate the idea of someone else taking my place all day long. Oh well, no choice, but it’s still going to be really hard.
Guess that is the update for this week. Here are a few photos to leave you with… Now that she’s starting to do fun stuff, I’m going to figure out how to upload some video clips from time to time.

Actually she’s pretty much right smack in the middle for length & weight. I think it’s just because she’s growing so fast. Makes me sad that she’s past the little ball of newborn stage and now a sturdy infant. Although it is kinda fun to have her more interactive now.

Well thats good, smack bang in the middle is a good habit to start with… i suppose now you can see her personality start taking shape more and more. The photos are funnier for me now, she has such ju ju lips and the sweetest smile. I wish i was there! not far now tho…
