After the party, we joined our good friends- six other neighborhood families with kids ranging in age from newborn to almost 5- to watch the football game. Or at least most of the daddies watched the football game...the kids ran around and the mommies caught up with each other, or at least tried to in between monitoring all of the kids! In total, there were 15 kids and 14 adults...Kira pushed the numbers over the edge so that now the kids outnumber the adults, and now our family contributes the largest share to the collective number of children (3 out of the 15). Here is Mommy with all three of her kids- take our word for it, Kira is in the sling:
Speaking of Kira, we really started to notice a change in her appearance yesterday. It seems like she's filling out and already losing her newborn look:
While she may be looking like she's progressing, her sleep habits actually regressed a bit last night- we're hoping it's just because of a growth spurt, but Kira was up at least every two hours to eat last night. Yikes- Mommy certainly hopes this phase passes quickly!
Today we jumped back into our "normal" schedule, toting Kira along to Alex and Ari's My Gym class where, as is becoming her custom, she slept in her carrier alongside the newborn little sister of a classmate of Alex and Ari's. Mommy managed to get all three kids in and out of the gym safely, thanks in great part to Alex and Ari's cooperation. Here are Alex and Ari enjoying the "carwash" set up at the gym today:
Now the important question: what will we do once Kira decides she doesn't want to sleep peacefully while Alex and Ari go about their everyday activities?!
