Kya's first summer

Kya has never know any other time of the year, but I already know that her favorite season is summer.

She's been out "to the river" a few times, and absolutely loves laying in the grass, watching the trees, and listening to the birds. (by the way, check out her outfit ... recognize it?)

The one part of summer she seems to dislike is the bright sun. It's no surprise that my sunglasses were a bit too big.

So I found some baby sunglasses. She is much more comfortable now - and can actually open her eyes outside. She also likes her stroller - and walks in the neighborhood. (pictured here mid-walk)


A few weeks ago is was HOT at the river, so we stripped Kya down to a diaper, and she and Corey watched the river flow (in the shade, of course). She was happy as a clam. So was Corey.

We've had visitors too! My college friend Kristan, her husband Josh, and their son Cole (what a cutie) stopped over for a visit Friday. It was so good to see them!

Kya and Cole met and although they didn't exactly "play well together" they were darn cute together. Cole is about six months older than Kya, and so much fun – he does the funniest baby seal crawl.
