7 Months


7 months and growing. Mikala was fussy for about 3 days, but she had every reason to be. Her first TWO teeth have come through!
I tried to get a good close up photo of her teeth and she was happy to share them with the camera. On my the first photo shot, she gave me a nice big smile showing off her beautiful teeth!

If you take a look at her shirt, you can see all the wonderful drool we get to deal with....ahhh, nice.
















One thing Mika doesnt like to do is eat "real" food. Weve been struggling with the feeding situation since she turned 6 months old. So, one day, I decided to allow her to "explore" with her food. She touch it, squished it, put some in her mouth, some in her hair, some up her nose, some on the floor, and somehow...some on my face! A few days later (right when she turned 7 months) shes been eating great! She has now eaten peas and sweet potato (from the spoon and with a clean face!).



We spent some time with Scott's cousins. Lisa and Steve made Korean BBQ, Wendy and Derrek made a salad (one of the best salads weve ever had), and we brought carrot cake for dessert.


































For Jo's Birthday, we had lunch at Dominic's in Arcadia....

























Following the lunch we went indoor rock climbing!!!

Yes, thats Jo doing it upside-down! Are you really surprised?! You shouldnt be.

...and, heres Janice upside-down!
Of course I have to end this update with Mikala's FIRST Easter!


















(...see, she does eat from the spoon! ...and from my lap! ...while feeding her backwards, too!)














We had Sunday brunch with the Ige's at the Almansor Court.

Uncle Z is now 100% comfortable holding Mikala...I think he figured out that he cant break her!

After brunch, I had time to take some photos of Mikala on our front lawn.














For Easter dinner, we went to Scott's Grandma Toshima's house. Mikala finally got to spend time with more family.

Auntie Sonia. Auntie Katie. Uncle Sean.

Mikala with cute little pigtails! Her hair is now so long that it makes "fountains" when up.
