Dear Kyra,
This entire month was all about new adventures. Be it with food or outing :).
We introduced several new items in your diet like Crushed Poha mixed with Milk, Raab, Bhaidku etc.
This entire month we took you out each and every single weekend. You attended Siya's birthday and also went to Kite Festival, yes, your very first trip to Washington DC. We also took you to see Cherry Blossom. We concluded that you loved going out. You behaved very nicely when outside but all problems started after reaching home. How much I love to go out with you, just the thought of it gives me chills :)
You started sleeping less and less day by day. I would not mind if you just play and entertain yourself. But soon you would get cranky and would not cooperate with our efforts to put you to sleep. You would reach at a point where you were severely sleepy and hungry and confused about what to do first. It became sort of a mission to handle you when we missed your feeding or sleeping schedule by several minutes.
You were sick for couple of days, down with cough and fever. For two days, we gave you Advil and that acted like energy booster! Normally, you would go to bed around 10 PM but after taking Advil, you were wide awake past midnight. We took you to the doctor and there you were just playing and smiling. Your weight was perfectly on track so doctor would not listen to me for complains regarding eating and sleeping!
We bought a new laptop toy for you which became your latest crush. We had bought it a while ago but were saving it for a rainy day. It plays Numbers, ABC and some other songs both in English and Spanish. But you would always select an option for Spanish and at the end of the days, our ears were ringing with 'Hola Hola'. Also, 'ABC' became your favorite song and whenever I would sing it to you, you would burst into laugh.
I had to take you to MVA office for my license renewal. Thought it was matter of just couple of hours at the most, I literally carried a bag with your food and toys.
Warm weather allowed us to take you to the park on regular basis. Whenever daddy would be home early, we would go to play area in our community. You just loved seeing other kids playing.
You became more and more possessive about me and daddy. You would not let me talk to anybody over the phone unless phone is in your hand. Sometimes even daddy was not allowed to interrupt when I was singing to you or feeding you.

The two most important milestone of this month are 1) You would willingly sit. I would put you on a soft surface with no clutter around so even if you fell, it wouldn't hurt you. Slowly, I started giving you bath in sitting position 2) You started moving by jumping like a frog. When you did so for the first time, I was able to capture it. Even after watching the video few times, I was not able to figure out how exactly you did it.
You have been growing very fast. Can't believe in another 3 months you would turn one!
See you next month!
