Six things about baby.

So Baby this weekend was a true character!

Some of the best parts...

1) Going to brunch at a friend's house.  Seeing Miss K interact with new people, playing peekaboo...demanding to see everyone's belly buttons.

2) Palm Sunday -- Kira at first was not into the palm branches.  But then, she saw all the kids waving them and marching around during the first song, she was transfixed.  After a nap in the nursery, she grabbed a palm and waved it, triumphantly shouting WOW! WHOA! as she toddled up and down the hallway!  I can't wait for the easter baskets next weekend.

3) Kira loves the kitchen, which is why we now have drawer locks on the most dangerous drawers.  K is known to walk around with a pie pan for tens of minutes, talking to herself, and licking the pan like she's eating something yummy.  

4) It was fun watching her play with a melon baller.  Out of all the things she could have done with it, she decided to scoop puppy food out of the dog bowl and feed it to puppy.  

5) Her language skills are improving by leaps and bounds.  She now knows the sign (followed shortly by the word) Please and says HIYEEE! and BYEEE! to everyone and everything, particularly birds.

6) She LOVES Galileo.  This weekend, while he was trying to take a nap, she pet him on the back gently and sang to him(because this is how she is put down to sleep at school), then found a blanket to put on top of him.  In the evening, I sometimes find the two of them lying next to each other.  The first thing she asks for every morning is puppy.  Galileo loves the attention, especially the extra treats she feeds him.
