Koko

Our baby girl is going to be 23 months tomorrow. I can't believe we'll be celebrating her 2nd birthday in a month. We just love this wild & crazy & stubborn & hilarious girl.

Breakfast with Koko

Kora is getting SO big! She just wants to do whatever Kali and Kai do. So she has given up on her high chair and eats right at the counter like the big kids. Kora is one strong willed, hilarious, driven, happy little girl. She is the perfect little caboose on our family train :)

Busy kiddos



This little Koko bean is such a fun little ball of energy lately. Her hair is a longer and she has cute little pony tails now.

Last week we were all SOOOO sick, it was awful. The day we felt better we went for a walk, we were all so happy to be out of the house.

Kai had a soccer game over the weekend (the girls were home sick so no pictures) but his team won

2-0 & Kai played well. Here's Kali and Kai all ready for soccer practice & ballet class.

The kiddos are keeping Francis & me very busy :)

18 Months

 

Koko is 18 months.

I can't believe it!

She is one wild & crazy & loving & hilarious little girl.

We all just can't get enough of her.

 Even if she loves to take our toothbrushes & drop them on the floor, walk in on everybody in the bathroom, throw stuff out of the garbage, eat all of our food, drink out of the big kid's water bottles, make messes all over the place & pull hair.

 She is always willing to give a hug or kiss, loves playing in her little kitchen and feeding her baby dolls, playing in Kali & Kai's room, going on walks, swinging, being on her baby bike, sitting on the lawn mower

 

 taking baths, eating pretty much anything except shrimp, dancing & being outside

 she says: more, Mama, Dada, Granddad, no, bad (to the dogs at my Mom's) yeah

16 Months

Kora is 16 months.

Here she is first thing in the morning drinking out of Kali's water bottle. She LOVES drinking out of Kali & Kai's school water bottles.

 I tried to get some good pics of her the other day so I gave her a lollipop bribe...it did not work. She ran off and at the lollipop instead of sitting still. She is a wild girl!

 If anyone leave the hall bathroom door open she goes in there and throws all of Kali's hair things out of the drawer. One time she put them in the toilet.

She can say: no, milk and more.

She LOVES her Daddy & Granddad and will give them both kisses if they ask.

She loves to be outside and she can run pretty fast now. Occasionally she sleeps through the night. The kid's in Kai's class always ask me, "where is Koko" when I go help in his class.

She loves to do crazy stuff, hear us say "no Koko" and then she stands there and laughs at us.

She makes us laugh everyday.

Kitty Cat

15 months

Kora had her 15 month appointment t his week and had 4 shots.  She weighs 21 lbs 12 oz (39%) Length 31 1/2 (75%) and her head is 100% :)

Sadly, she has a cold right now but it still her wild & screaming little self.

 Kali is sick too.

 My poor sick girls & one boy that is pretending to be sick so he could miss school.

Fall Break starts NOW!

The kids have 9 days off of school! Yay! Fall Break is here. Which means,

lots of soccer

hiking with friends

 Home Depot kid's workshop with friends

 camping outback...only for one night because we're planting our winter grass today!



NO packing lunches & bagpacks or getting up early!!

 playdates with friends

 and this wild and crazy girl is going to be SOOO happy to have Kali and Kai home to play all week.

By the way, Koko is 15 months on Wed.

We've done a lot already and it's only day 1 :)

Moon Valley Park

Today was Kora's first official park playdate. It was SOOO nice outside & now that Kora is old enough to run around and crawl on the steps she had a great time.

 I met a friend of mine from High School up there with her little girl.

Then I ran into two more friends, what a great day!

 One thing is for sure, this girl loves to eat! She snacked almost the entire time & even mooched a few off of my friends.

 She is also one tough, wild, happy little girl.



14 months

Our crazy little Koko is 14 months. She is into EVERYTHING! She is a climber, screamer, jumper, hair puller, hugger, baby babbling little ball of energy.

There is NEVER a dull moment when she is around. And, if there is a quiet, dull moment then we know we are in big trouble. She loves to sneek away and unroll toilet paper or throw stuff into the toilet. She is learning to open doors so now there will be no stopping her.

Kora loves being outside just like the rest of us & really likes to swing at the park. She loves to swim, play with remote controls, dance to music, play with Kali & Kai, make huge messes, throw food everywhere & she LOVES to snuggle her Daddy. We love this wild and crazy girl.
