First walking, now talking

These days, Kiki wakes me up every morning by pointing to her nose and saying, "noooooooo" which means nose. Then she points to her eye and says "aye", her ear and says "eeeeee". Every morning. So weird that that's the first thing she thinks of every day.

Scott said she went up to him this morning, handed him her shoe and said "here is a sock". I'm convinced he was hearing things, because I don't think she really has sentences down yet.

She is still very attached to her pink hoodie. On the day she went to the playground without it on (it was in the wash), she kept grabbing for all the other babies' pink things. I guess she felt something was missing...

Kiki's walking!

Kiki started walking last week!

And right around that time, she started INSISTING on wearing her favorite jacket that Lisa Eemo gave her and carrying her little Easter basket all over the apartment. Sometimes, she wants to wear her hat and shoes, too, like she's always ready to head out the door and do a little shopping.

Oh, we're doomed.





(Sorry for the bad images -- camera phone is the best I can do these days.)

Here's a pic of Kiki wearing a cute tank sent by our babysitter's mom in Canada, her very own fashion fairy godmother. As you can see, Kiki still doesn't have a lot of hair, but what she has is getting longer. At least she's finally getting a couple of new teeth!



After getting her 12-month immunization shots (at 13.5 months--oops), we decided to hang out on the front stoop with the other babies in our building. (Of the 8 apts in the bldg, 3 of us had babies in one year...and now 2 of us are pregnant again!) Cecilia (the girl next to Keeks) is 6 months older, and Jacob (in front) was born within minutes of Kiki. Amazing!
