Mira is 1 Year & 1 Month Old!


Miri is a bundle of energy and loves to play.
She is learning and changing so much every day!
She loves running around with Rana and her friends.

She is eating real food like a champ and has an amazing appetite!
 When she is hungry, which is almost hourly these days,
she says "hum" repeatedly until we give her something to eat.
She is also starting to demonstratively refuse her bottles
and point out what she would prefer. Mira quite likes savory
and hearty foods, such as meats and cheeses,
and often eats almost much as her sister at meals.

It took her a while to adjust to daycare,
but she quite likes it there now.  Interestingly, she
transitioned better without Mama hanging about and
has established a stronger bond with the English-speaking
teacher, though she lets the other teachers care for her as well.

What a fun and busy age!

World Cup Fever

Germany won the World Cup!


Rana collected the team cards, dressed up, 
and followed some of the games,
while Mira quite enjoyed the drum
we were given at local store.


Wonder how long the euphoria will last?!

Outings

We've been busy:

An outing at a nearby camp with Rana's Kindergarten group
as they bid farewell to the kids who will be starting school.


And an outing to the zoo with Jana and her family.
