It's been a long week. We've been really busy, which I think has really worn me down and I am exhausted. Keira has been to the doctor not once, but twice this week. Ugh. I think before we lived in Kansas I could count on one hand the amount of times Keira has been to the doctor (other than well check ups), now since being here, twice. Tuesday we went because she woke up with what I thought was pink eye. The under lid of her eye was swollen and super pink. Thankfully, it was not pink eye and just an allergy irritation. No meds, no nothing. (Is it wrong that I was hoping for a prescription for something b/c I had a coupon for a $25 gift card to CVS for any new presciption? Just kidding, sort of!) Anyway, so that was good news - but it's always a hassle to go to the dr. The other good part was that we really liked the dr. I got recommendations from the MOMS club and chose based on that and this guy was great. Keira brought in a Dora doll with her and he examined Dora before Keira - it was cute and she ate it up. Anyway, so today we went back to the dr. because she woke up with an open sore on the back of her head. I was completely freaked out - I had no idea what the heck it was. Apparently, it was just a bug bite. Took home a sample of Zyrtec to help with the itching and that's it. Oh and the other good thing about this dr. office is that they have what they call clinic hours. Every morning from 8:00 to 10:00 you can just show up and they will see you. You don't have to call or anything. So if the kiddos get sick overnight, just bring them in. That is really cool. And shockingly, we didn't wait forever either. So anyway, between the two appointments, MOMS group activities, errands, etc - I think we are worn out. At least I am. So I blew off a MNO tonight. Bad I know, but I just was not in the mood. I'll go next month.
Keira is a fish. She wants to go to the pool or swim in the baby pool everyday. Here are some picks.
She is also a gym rat. After we got home from the dr., she begged to go to the gym. So away we went. She also loves to play outside. More pics ...
And last, but not least, she likes to impersonate animals. Check out my little monkey!
Keira is absorbing things like a sponge. She can count and recognizes all her numbers to 20. Can count to 5 in spanish. And can say her ABCs as well recognize ALL her letters. Uppercase ones anyway - we are still working on lowercase ones, they seem to be a little bit harder. She is singing songs on her own like crazy, it is super adorable. She sings twinkle twinkle little star, row row row your boat, happy birthday, the ABC song, the muffin man song, and some others. She is also big on reading her books to herself. It is amazing how she can remember the story!
That is all for now. Hope all is well. I'll try to find some deals to post about this weekend :)
