Kyra's vocabulary is growing every day. She attempts to repeat every word and every sound she hears. She can tell you what a cow says. So cute to watch her position her lips first then make the sound. She can say "pa-pop" and calls Kaden "Bubba" Just today as Mikahla was rushing by her she called out "Ta-ba" Mikahla stopped in her tracks. "No, no" has also been perfected while she shakes her finger repeatedly.

We have been working on her tummy time. Not a fan of this position, but she is beginning to tolerate this a little more each day. I was concerned with Kyra's mobility due to her reluctancy to go into a crawling position, but Kyra always finds her own way. She has mastered the "scoot" She crosses her legs indian style and maneuvers across the floor on her bottom.

Almost three months at home now. I have to say our routines have provided me with more time with all three children. I am so pleased to announce Kaden has joined flag football and I actually get to see a few games. Kory and I went to a class reunion a few weeks ago. First time I have been more than 10 minutes away from home without a nurse in place. ( Thanks Cher!!!) Prior to Kyra's discharge the Clinic nursing staff told us, we would get home and wonder why we were ever so nervous. Well, I still hold my breath every now and then, but I honestly believe I could mix TPN with my eyes closed.
