Kaida Walks!

K Walks! from Brandon Davis-Shannon on Vimeo.

Only one month until the big first birthday!! Almost a whole year, I can hardly believe it!

May was a fun month. The weather is warmer and that means we can take our little ball of energy outside which is great.

This month:
*Kaida went from 1 tooth, to 4. That's right, 3 new teeth broke through in a matter of weeks. apparently she was saving them.
*Kaida started walking holding on to only one hand. She is a little wobbly, but really her balance is quite good. She can even stand on her own for a minute or so when she feels so inclined (i.e. when nothing distracts her that she wants to get to)
*We took our first trip to the playground. She loved it. A lot. Photographic evidence on shutterfly.
*We spent time with lots of family in Jersey for the first time since January. Kaida did really well and is much more sociable.
*Kaida can now drink from a straw AND out of a cup on her own. It was amazing, something just clicked and we put the cup down and right to her mouth it went, with water going in instead of just down the chin.
*Kaida eats pretty much whatever we eat....as long as it's not excessively sweet or salty
*Kaida started doing big fun splashes in the bath :)
*We went out to play in the grass for the first time...she was not thrilled with grass haha. In fact she would try to get away from it. I think we are past that now, but still if we set her down she won't move and if she is on a blanket, she won't go off it. We'll see how long that lasts.
*Kaida gives kisses when asked (sometimes) and occasionally will point to a nose if asked.







She is just more fun every day! Oh man we love her :)
