Mum's Day




















On Sunday, Phil took us up to the zoo! It was BUSY, much more so than last year on Mother's Day. So busy in fact that, since the parking lot was full, they were shuttling people from extra parking to the zoo on buses. That was sure fun with the double stroller, but it worked. :) We had lots of fun seeing the animals but didn't quite get to all of them because Kyra was wearing out. Both girls conked out in the car on the way home so we skipped lunch out so they could have their nap.
On Monday, Paige was officially 6 weeks old!! She had her first ever bottle of expressed milk and did great with it, gulped down all 3 1/2 ounces! Now if we can just get her to KEEP taking an occasional bottle, maybe we can leave her for more than half an hour before she's 8 months old! She's just changing so much already. She's SO strong and has great head control, maybe even better than Kyra did at this age. She loves watching the butterflies on the swing and riding in the MeiTai. She's so alert and is always watching everything around her. She has the prettiest eyes and they're always busy.
We were at the grocery store today and one of Phil's co-workers recognized Kyra and I and stopped to see the new baby. She said Paige looks just like Phil! I think it's extrememly funny that I said Kyra looked just like Phil and everybody said no, she didn't. However, Paige looks just like Kyra did as a newborn (if you don't believe me I can show you pics side by side) just with less hair and everyone swears that Paige is just the spitting image of Phil! I see a lot of their Dad and a little of me in both of them. :)
