Another week goes by...

Sorry we haven't posted in awhile. This was an OK week. Kaila's other top tooth is starting to come in now. So she'll have her top two front teeth in first. It doesn't look like any other ones are coming in. She also now knows how to sit from a standing position. She often shows-off while standing up, as she lets go with one hand. She is crawling EVERYWHERE now.
Thursday, Kaila had her second day of her swimming class. She did MUCH better compared to last week. She never cried, but laughed and enjoyed her hour in the pool. She's getting much more comfortable having her head and face wet. We're working our way to get Kaila comfortable being submerged in the water.

We had our second hip-hop class on Thursday night as well. One of Cisco's colleagues, Amanda Salacinksi, offered to baby-sit that night. Kaila enjoyed having her. She cried at times during the hour we were gone, mostly because she was tired. As for our class, it was better for Cisco, than it was for Kaui. Our first class was more "fluid," which fits Kaui's style better (Cisco didn't enjoy the "fluidity" too much). This last class was more "hard-hitting," which is right up Cisco's alley (not so much for Kaui). The song was to Busta Rhymes' "Touch It." Our teacher mentioned to Cisco that on Wednesday and Sunday nights, they have breakdancing sessions in one of the buildings on campus. She said they always want new people to come and learn. That got Cisco excited!

Anyway, here are just a few pictures from the week:

Kaila eating a snack in her walker......while Sadie lies underneath, waiting for something to drop.


So we've found that she likes to eat her snacks while standing up in front of the walker, rather than standing in it.



Picture with Daddy, before he heads out to work (this picture is for Megan and Mr. Lokteff....notice the sweater-vest and kicks....yes....Chuck Taylors. Still representing the West Coast).



Enjoying her rice rusk in the car after her swimming class.

And here are some pictures that we found on the camera, from a few weeks ago.

We caught her standing on her walker.

She's starting to love nectarines.

Also, we have embedded some videos for you all to enjoy. The theme is "Kaila playing with Sadie." We'll be posting more videos, in addition to our pictures in the future.









Notice how Kaila tries to bite Sadie. Pretty funny stuff.

I LOVE IT! Just hearing her voice makes me both happy and sad. Thanks for sharing some videos. We were laughing! Jana called and they were dying laughing too. Josie even came to the den when she heard Kaila's cry. She was looking for Kaila. Typical siblings "no sharing." 31 more days! Can't wait. Love you guys...
