Apologies for lack of posts lately, I've been pretty tired and lazy. Here is a video of Kira watching her "words" dvd. Grandma Rose got her the "Your Baby can Read" DVD and book set, it is supposed to help kids learn to read before they go to school. Basically, it runs a series of 30 words on repeat with pictures, songs, and rhymes. Honestly, there are some words now that Kira will shout out before they've said what they are on the DVD, so I guess that it works (of course, one of the words she can 'read' is No). At the very least, it's really helping her vocabulary. Though it is difficult to understand her, she is starting to say a lot more words now, which is very exciting for us. Anyhow, here is the video - I had to take it off the side of the table during her breakfast so that she wouldn't be distracted by the camera...

Next weekend we are going to attempt potty training. A friend recommended this 3-day potty training method, and it has worked for a few friends so far, so we'll see how it goes for Kira. It's not the ideal way to spend a long weekend, but I'm hoping that the results make it worthwhile!

Kira has started back at her gymnastics again. Her class this time is a mix of 1 and 2 year olds, which suits her just fine as she tends to do her own thing instead of following the circuit given by the teacher. The 1 year olds do the same thing.

Kira's first 2-year molar cut through her gums last weekend. She was pretty miserable for the first bit of the week, but she seems to be back to her normal self now. 1 down, 3 to go...I can't wait till this teething thing is over.
