#1) Kira went in for her 6 month checkup/shots on Tuesday. She is 16.45lbs, 67cm long (approx - she was moving way too much for an accurate measurement...and she kept trying to eat the tape measure), and her head is 43cm. All of her measurements are within the 50 - 75 percentile, so she is growing very well.
She also had her shots in this appointment and amazed both the doctor and me by not crying at all! She was even laughing with the doctor about 3 minutes after wards . The only time she cried was when I put her clothes back on - this kid loves being naked!
She continues to develop everyday. She is now able to sit up on her own, she topples now and then, but is quite steady for the most part. She has also started a backwards wave, she does this a lot in her stroller much to the delight of strangers that are waving at her. She is getting close to crawling, she is still moving backwards only but I figure by the time we are back from Malaysia she will be able to show off her crawling talents to her Daddy.
This is a picture of her today. She is in her exersaucer while I type this post. For those of you thinking she needs a haircut (Mom), I am letting her hair grow out so too bad!

#2) Our floors have finally been replaced and man do they look great! Kira and I were able to move home again last night. The baseboards were installed this morning and they are touching up the paint right now, then we will move our furniture back out and get back to normal life for a couple of weeks...then off to Malaysia!
Thanks again to Mom and Charlie for letting us crash at their place while the floors were being done. I'm sure it wasn't easy having a baby around to keep you up at night, but we are very grateful.
