Meet Baby Kira!

I haven't posted very much about Kira and what she is like, so I put together a few fun facts about her:
1. Weighing in at 7 lbs, 8 oz. she is my biggest baby so far (and she was 2 weeks early!)
2. At her 1 week appointment she had already gained nearly a pound, 8 lbs, 6 oz. This was a shock to me as both Breckan and Zack had lost weight at their 1 week appointments.
3. She is a grunter, she grunts if you touch her, move her, feed her, play with her, bathe her, you name it! It's funny. I can't wait for those grunts to turn to noises!
4. She loves baths and doesn't seem to mind the shock of cold air that occurs for a few seconds between the warm water and the towel.
5. When she is really awake her eyes are huge! They remind me of her Aunt Jenny's!
6. She is VERY patient with Breckan and Zack's prodding and poking and attempts to hold her. She mostly just squirms and grunts and looks at me with a face that says, "Help me!"
7. She is so SMILEY! I would like to think it's in response to me, but I know that's just not congruent with her age. Either way she has excellent timing! One of these days I will catch it on camera...
8. She hates Terry's wiskers. If he has any spiky hair on his face when he kisses her, she cries. It's so cute, but sad!
She is a cutie and a very good baby, We love having her! Here are a few recent picts of her.

Okay so Matthew TOTALLY grunts all the time and has since day one. Maybe the grunting=rapid weight gain??? I just know from reading the "Kira facts" that they are totally related.

We can't wait to meet her!!! December seems like forever away!

Does that mean I need to get Julianna to start grunting too?! We are so excited to meet her in person soon. ^_^

Okay I am totally out of the loop. I just found out Monday you guys are moving back. Tatum is excited to play with Breckan. Oh and Trey grunts too. He doesn't cry much just grunts.
