This and That

The majority of this post is about Kira, mainly because she is learning so much lately.

She has started sitting up with her arms helping a little. She can sit for a while on her own if she wants to. Bucky helps by sitting behind her sometimes but then he'll leave and she'll topple trying to look for him. She always has to watch where he is going and what he is doing.


She tried cereal for the first time on the 10th. I was able to get hubby on Skype so he could watch. The quality was horrible but he could see the shape of her eating at least. She did great. She ate like she was starving even though she had nursed not too long before. It was funny to watch her experience this. She kept grabbing the spoon so I let her try to feed herself but she was more interested in chewing on the spoon. Notice she is wearing the monkey "babe" that big brother got her for Christmas :). He was thrilled that she was using it!


 I got Bucky a desk at the Peaches to Beaches yard sale last weekend. Bucky and I agreed that we would've rather been on the beaches end of it :). I bought the desk and a small golf club bag for $20. I will try to refinish the desk and paint it "rainbow" because that's what Bucky wants. When I asked him what rainbow was he told me it is red, green, yellow, and blue. Insert parental sigh here that he did not add purple or any other colors for that matter. He was very excited to have a place to put ALL of his papers, coloring books, and instruments to color with so that they are not all over his room any more. He very willingly (with a few gentle reminders) organized his materials.


That's about it for us for now. Hoping that I will be able to plant some veggies and herbs soon. News on that and pictures to follow if we are able to get it going.
