Things have been a little bit hectic around here the last few days. Jon went to London last week for work, while he was away, Kira and I kept ourselves busy.
Saturday, we attended a wedding shower for Erin, she will be getting married to my brother on June 20. Kira had fun running around and playing with her cousin Megan. They had nice little chats with each other, although no one else could understand a word of what they were saying.

That night, Christina, Clinton, and Nicholas were over. Christina and Clinton had tickets to the hockey game, and Nicholas was going to hang out with Kira. He was such a great little man, he took care of Kira, made sure she didn't do anything she wasn't supposed to do, and gave her lots of hugs and kisses - he will be a wonderful big brother later this year.
The next day was Mothers Day. We started the morning by playing in the park with Nicholas, who picked out some lovely flowers for my sister for Mothers day. Next, we went to my Mom's place where Jeff + Erin made us all brunch. Kira had her first taste of French Toast, she loved it, naturally.
Later that evening, we went out for dinner with Jon's family. We went to a Thai/Malaysian restaurant, Kira had her first taste of crab fried rice...she loved it so much! She ate as much, or more, than me! She must have had a plateful of it. Too funny.
Jon got home Friday afternoon and immediately went to pick up Kira from daycare, he missed her a lot. Kira is very happy to have her Daddy home again, it's too bad that he has to leave for Vegas on Monday though. At least this time it's only a couple of days away.
We got a bike seat for Kira to sit in so I can take her for bike rides, she's not too sure about it yet. She likes it when we are going downhill, but will usually fuss when we are going uphill, because I'm slow...not used to having the extra 25lbs on my back tire! This is a picture of Kira in her bike helmet - too cute!
Kira is doing very well, she is discovering new talents everyday. This week she figured out how to open the drawers on one of her dressers, she then proceeded to put all of the clothes from the drawer, into the dirty clothes bin. She likes to brush her teeth and her hair by herself (we do it again right after she is done), and she has learned how to climb in and out of the bathtub. Hee. She is at the early stages of forming words now; one word she loves to say is "Phone". She will say that every time it rings. It's pretty impressive.
Kira had her eye specialist appointment a week ago, she passed her tests with flying colours. Her eyes are not getting worse, so the prescription that she has is the correct one. With any luck, her eyes will continue to improve and she won't need glasses when she gets older. Her next appointment is in a couple of months. She will be returning to the specialist every six months until she is 3 years old.
