Kaili - 9 to 10 Months

This little girl was one happy baby. She's always been easy going in temperament, although noticeably more emotional than her brother was. I love all of her cute facial expressions.  

Often when I'd snap a picture, I'd get a look like this one because of her reaction to the flash, but it always made me laugh.
She began mimicking our sounds around this time and could make out "da" and "mom." I was able to capture both and put together this cute movie of her. She's been a parrot of sounds ever since then. 

Joseph always wants to share in the attention that Kaili receives, and we got a huge kick out of his desire to show how he could make these same seemingly amazing sounds too!

Kaili loved (and still does love) her bathtime. She's always had a blast in the water. 

She really enjoyed jumping in her jumperoo. 


And she has a really interesting relationship with animals. She really loves them, however, seems to get emotional around them as well. So although she'll be excited to see an animal, the sounds she makes seem like she's crying. It's really strange.


One time Kaili showed up to a family gathering in the same outfit as her cousin Airika. It was unplanned. That's what we get for twin hand-me-downs! 

At about 9 1/2 months, Kaili finally began scooting around, with great effort. I love her squeal of frustration at the beginning of this clip.


Kaili is sure loved by her older brother who loves to play with her. I thought it was so cute one day to see that he had tucked Kaili in with her dolly and then joined them under the blanket. 
 
Sometimes I think of what a blessing it is that my kids have a life filled with so many people who love them and treat them kindly. If they only knew what a true blessing that really is!
