Firsts

I was going to wait until Monday to write this blog, but since today is June 1^st and the title is “Firsts,” I figure it made more sense to post it today.

A lot of firsts have happened recently! So I thought I would share some with you.

• Kayley pointed at Andrew and said “dada!” about a week ago. Then later that day she pointed at his picture and said it again! She has said “dada” before, but this was the first time she said it and pointed and we were 100% sure she meant her daddy.

• Last Sunday, Andrew felt Cub for the first time!

• Kayley experience her first at home water-play on our balcony and loved it!

• Kayley had her first taste of my chicken pot pie and meat loaf and loved them both. She also enjoyed ramen for the first time.

• Kayley fed herself with a spoon! Boy did she get messy, but we are so proud of her.

MmMmMmm Tasty

• Kayley had her first really good look at the Space Needle. We’ve never really pointed it out to her before. But when we took Andrew’s childhood friend to Kerry Park, we made sure Kayley knew what we were looking at.

The classic picture

• Kayley drew a picture all by herself for the first time. Now we have a pad of paper and some crayons at home so we can have more drawing time.

• Kayley got to attend her first bridal shower and had a blast with all the wonderful ladies. Congrats again Mike and Heather!

Aunty Heather, Uncle Mike, me, Kayley and Andrew enjoying the wonderful sun! It was a perfect day for a bridal shower

• Kayley went to her first farmers market and enjoyed eating fresh sweet snap peas and part of a baguette.

• Kayley played in the sand for the first time! She also ate some…

What is this stuff?

Digging with Kaylin

• Kayley took her first trip to the library. She loved seeing all the books and kept pointing and pulling books off shelves while saying “ga! Ga!” (“Ga” is her word for book. We think she got it from her favorite book, which is “Baby BeluGA.” For the past three weeks she has picked that book every night for her daddy to read.)

About to enter the library.

• This morning, Kayley played with her shadow on the wall for the first time. She has noticed it before, but never tried to play with it.

• Andrew starts his first day at his new job at Amazon on Monday!!!!!

They sell things from A to Z!

We're super excited for our new adventure that is about to start. We don't know exactly what it will be like, but we think the hours will be a lot better for our family. Andrew has training for about a month, and then he'll be working Tues-Sat. It will be totally different, but just think of how less crowded places will be on Mondays. ^_~ Thank you, God, for providing this new job!
