Happy Birthday, Kara

I can hardly believe it's been one year. I can hardly believe how cute she is. Kara has a great smile, and even better, she uses it often. Here's some video of her on her birthday morning, with Elena and I entering to sing happy birthday, and then her eating her french toast with buttermilk syrup.

The world premier of Kara and the piano.

I can't believe I haven't done this sooner. But here is the world premier of Kara's first time with the piano...

Can I get some applause?

When you teach yourself to clap, what do you do? Well, give yourself some applause, of course!

Day at the pool (one of many to come)

We had our first day at the pool, not ours, but Mike and Mindy's, who have now left us for Utah. They were so kind as to take some pictures while we were there. The water was a little cool, and there was a breeze, so we mostly did some wading, but it was a fun first experience.

Blueberries

We went to pick blueberries Memorial day weekend. We had quite a good time, and found out that Kara REALLY likes blueberries. She'd dive in for Elena's bucket, and then dive in again. Then she learned to pick them for herself.



Here's some video of her dipping into the bucket...



Here's Kara picking them for herself


Guess what... Kara likes chocolate. Imagine that!
