Keira 18 month video

She's growing up too fast!

Keira is getting so big and fun! She has been taking her time with learning to walk... but finally took her first few steps last night. Hopefully we'll get her walking in no time! She's having fun taking a few steps and falling over. Falling over is the fun part and we love how she giggles at herself.

Some of her favorites lately:

Starbursts

Gummy Bears

Chips... Especially Doritos

Blueberries

Peanutbutter Honey Sandwiches

Kiwi

Favorite Words:

Ball

Dog

Bear

Bottle

Da-Da

Outside

We took Keira to Zoombezi Bay which is a water park here that connects to the Columbus Zoo. She had so much fun in the water and is such a splasher. We bought her a cute new swimsuit and she looks so adorable in it!

It took her a little while to warm up... but once she did... we couldn't get her out of the water.

We didn't get the best of pictures I guess... but there were a lot of squirting fountains that she liked.

Here's how Keira likes to sleep... with her cute little booty up in the air.

We had to get some cute pics to remember her favorite way to sleep.

PREGNANCY UPDATE:

I am 14 weeks a long now and have finally started to feel better. We had an ultra sound yesterday and the twins are doing great. The big day to find out the sexes is Friday, October 1st. The appointment isn't till 3:00... so you'll have to wait on a later post that day. We can't wait to find out what we're having and can't wait to start putting the room together! Or maybe it's just ME that can't wait to put the room together! :)

Family Changing Event On The Horizon

KEIRA ~ 16 MONTHS

OUR BUSY LITTLE GIRL

Keira has definitely become my shadow. Where ever I go... she goes.

Most of the time Keira tags along her favorite singing bear. It's the toy she plays with the most and the one she squeezes every morning when she wakes up.

A couple months ago Keira never put anything in her mouth... that has changed. She now loves to put things in her mouth that are not supposed to be there. Grass is one of her new favorites to chew on.

We thought it was so funny how she just lets it hang there. She doesn't really eat it but just holds it in her mouth.

Our little farmer girl.

In the last month Keira has done really well with pulling herself up on things. Hopefully we'll get her walking soon. I don't think she minds taking her time though. Love her little chicken legs!

Curtains are a fun new toy for Keira. She loves to hide behind them.

Has anyone seen Keira?

Peek-a-Boo... There you are!

In our entry way we have a little cupboard that now occupies some of Keira's toys. We used to keep shoes in there and she would keep getting them out. I thought I might as well put fun things in there for her.

She loves her secret toy stash and gets in there all the time.

*FAMILY PHOTOS BY CHARLOTTE FOERSCHLER

Thanks to our friend Charlotte... we were able to get some amazing family pictures!

This is one of my new FAVORITES.

Hopefully we can get Keira walking soon.

Such a beautiful girl.

She wasn't content unless she was holding a piece of grass.

Keira and that tongue...

Daddy's Girl!

PRECIOUS

It was a little hot and humid this day... but we made it.

WE LOVE OUR FAMILY!

Had to end the day with a fun shoulder ride.

*FAMILY PHOTOS BY CHARLOTTE

We got some great family photos for Keira's one year birthday.

They turned out beautiful... Thanks to Charlotte!

I love how this one turned out although Keira wasn't happy and not willing to put her feet down. That's our silly girl...

Love this one!

Downtown Columbus

Such a beautiful day to take pictures.

Our pretty Little Lemon.

*HAVING FUN WITH DADDY!

Keira loves spending time with Daddy and loves it when he throws her in the air.

She gets so happy and laughs so much doing this.

Thought these were some cute photos of Daddy and Keira.

She's our curious little monkey!

I bought a box of Gobstoppers the other day as they are one of my favorites. To my surprise... when I opened the box they were all orange except for one red one.

HERE'S MY PROOF!

If I were lucky I would have gotten a box of all green or purple ones as they taste the best. HA! I wrote the company and they sent me a coupon for a free bag of candy. SCORE!

*NICE NEW CAMERA

We played with our new camera this weekend and got some great new photos. Brody was the main photographer... so most of the shots are of Mommy and Keira. We are still learning and trying to figure out how this camera works. Hope you enjoy our pictures!

We have some pretty rose bushes in front of the house that Brody planted. Thought this would be a great place to take some pictures.

Daddy does a great job taking pictures.

Keira is so CUTE in this one!

It's hard getting Keira to look at the camera every time. We took a bunch of shots here but couldn't get her to look up once... even when trying to distract her. Still a great pic though!

Such a BEAUTIFUL girl!

Fun with Daddy... as always!

Daddy's little Sweetheart!

Keira's new thing is sticking out her tongue.

I love these photo's that Brody took of Keira having breakfast. She's growing up and looking a little bigger in her highchair lately.

One of my new favorites. While eating Keira was holding her hands together. Glad Daddy captured this cute little pic.

Keira is always happy and her laugh is so contagious!

After breakfast we had to get some new bath photos. There's that tongue again!

Keira has always been a big time splasher but she seems to be getting even better at it lately. The floor gets soaked and so do I for the most part!

I love how the camera can capture her awesome splashes!

Bath time is one of Keira's most favorites.

All cleaned up and ready to go play! We love our little Lemon so much!
