Happy Ayyam-i-Ha!

Happy Ayyam-i-Ha! The intercalary days prior to the Baha'i Fast, full of celebration and feasting.

February brought some wonderful fun with friends! We went to Indianapolis to visit with the Layla Lu (the Vergaras'), the Mathews' and Terry & Katie for a quick weekend, and of course there was another snow storm! I think the last! We also had Grandma Pat & Bill come visit us for a weekend too! We have been stuck inside with all this cold weather and have only been going out for Music class on Mondays.

Kyra: 4 months

She is now rolling over from front to back & (back to front was last month!), she slept 9 hours (only once, haha!), grabs toys and takes to her mouth, had her first cold :( (RSV), found toes, laughing at Mommy, Daddy & Fayola; able to see further distances and responds to name regularly. She eats A LOT! and is so big. You are definitely still attached to Mommy my dear, but you are finally in your own crib and taking a morning nap.

Weighs in at: 17 lbs. 3 oz.
Height: 25.8" long

Morning of 1st day of Ayyam-i-Ha!

Milestones:

  • Laughs at Mommy & Daddy
  • Starting to reach & grab toys on play mat 
  • Slept 9 hours straight! wow!
  • Found hands & starting to suck thumb
  • Great head control
This winter has been the coldest in a very long time here in the Midwest... -17 degrees with -40 deg wind chill was the worst, we've had more than 50 inches of snow. We've been trapped inside this place! Aunt Angie visited us! It was so nice to see my sister, I love her so much! We celebrated my Birthday, big 31 years old!
