Kimi in her favorite outfit, thanks Tracy Lane, she picked this one out. I should mention when she saw a live turtle she was disappointed it wasn't nearly as cute as the ones on her outfit and shoes.

It's been soo long

It's been soo long since last post so I'll try to catch everyone up. Kimi is feeling better these days and Ken and I are flu free...fingers crossed. We have been very busy preparing for Easter and a visit from Nana which Kimi calls Nini=Grandmother. Before Easter Kimi got her 1st hair cut, check out the pics. Nana came and conquered she threw a great Easter party which made our first holiday together very special. Kimi had a fabulous time with Nini, we only wish she didn't have a cold and was feeling better. We also had a few warm days that we spent at the park, pics included in this post. Kimi's English is exploding, here is an excerpt from her daily conversation. Toast, banana, apple, juice, Cheerios, cracker, rice, and chocolate was one of her first English words ever. She says all of her friends names. She says baby which was an early word. She knows a lot of animals too many to mention along with the names she likes to imitate the sounds they make. She is also really into airplanes, a few weeks ago there was a fire nearby and three helicopters we over our house she loved it and watched them all evening, screaming our names to come and look at them out the window. She can also count to 10 and knows colors. She has retained a lot of her Chinese and we are realizing she understands much more than we thought. She can count in mandarin and does things a video says, we can't understand because it is in Chinese but it has something to do with cooking, counting, and parts of the body. This week we start toddler music class, and next week we start Mandarin and swimming. Thank you again to everyone who sent and brought by gifts. Aunt Ann and Uncle Dan for the cute outfit and fun box, Carrie and Chris for the (mess-free) markers and bubbles, Nini for the Easter gifts, basket & party, Yea yea for the egg wreath, Margaret and Stephen for the Pooh baby bear and Aunt Sharon Uncle Todd, Cousin Marissa for the Easter bucket and animals.

Checking out my yard!

Hard to believe Kimi got another cold while on antibiotics.. you know what they say...antibiotics won't kill a virus. So now were are staying away from the park and the other sick babies. All the parents I talk too say oh yea you will be sick too and the kids are always sick is this true? The MD said she may have a few non cold days but until end of April expect her to be sick UGH! We got some backyard toys for some at home fun. Here are some long over due photos.

We are feeling a little better

A quick update, Kimi is feeling better. We have been going for a few stroller walks so she can get some sun and fresh air, it has been hard keeping her quite. She's getting better, we are so glad, I thought we might of had to admit her to my hospital unit. We never found out where the infection came from, potentially it was from some bad milk/food or residual virus. Thanks for all of your get well wishes.
