Baby KJ! (Formerly known as 2.0)

Here is the first pictures of baby KJ! We had the ultrasound today, seems that things are progressing well (yay!) so we are now just waiting for him/her to make their appearance on or around December 7, 2010. KJ was plenty active during the scan and kept its hands up near the mouth for nearly the entire time. The feet are moving constantly, kicking every direction -- oh goody, just like Kira was :P

I was going to find out the gender of KJ, but Jon didn't want to know, and since I have a big mouth, I decided not to find out either. Personally, I think that it's a girl, but I have nothing to back that up with. We'll find out soon enough!

Apologies, I'm a tech idiot and I don't know how to change the direction of the picture...

Bear at the Park

Here is a video of Bear at the park with Kira. She decided that he wanted to go down the slide with her...

I've been trying to upload the video of Kira changing bear's diaper, but it's been taking upwards of 3 hours and nothing happens, so maybe I'll try again this week.

Kira + the Bear

This weekend Kira made a new best friend, her teddy bear. Her Auntie May and Uncle Simon got her this bear from FAO Schwartz in NYC and it has all of a sudden become her favourite companion. He went everywhere with her this weekend, including to dinner with us on Sunday night. She changes his diaper, dresses it, and takes it for car rides. At night she sleeps with him too. It's pretty cute. Jon will try to get a video of Kira changing bears diaper tomorrow morning.

(notice how Kira's hair is in a ponytail, we finally succeeded this weekend in getting it up!)

Long weekend

Happy Canada Day long weekend everyone! We stayed home this weekend and due to the lingering colds, we didn't partake in any organized Canada day celebrations (save a bbq at a friends place). It's been nice to have Jon around this weekend, I've done a lot of resting and fully maxed out the pregnancy card. Kira has enjoyed having her Daddy around and has been quite attached to him most of the weekend.

Here are a couple of pictures that Jon took of Kira at the park today...

Hugging a tree, she likes to do this to lamp posts too. I have no idea where she gets it from

Surprise, Kira is distracted by something else ---- she's so nosy!
