The Many Adventures of Keira!

This is our page to document our family's adoption journey- starting from when we first started planning for our little one, to when we brought her home. We're also going to keep this updated with all of the things that Keira has been up to since she's been home with us here in the U.S!

A Visit from Family!

















Dad and Margaret came out from the East Coast for their Annual West Coast Trek. They came out on Wednesday afternoon and got to meet Keira for the first time. She took to them immediately and had a great time goofing around with them as you can see from the pictures. This afternoon was very full for the little one. She went to her Wobblers class and ran around playing. Immediately after that, I took her to Legoland and it is so much more fun with her now that she has better balance and can walk and run on her own. It does still worry me when she starts running too fast since it is still a possibility for her to totally eat it on the pavement. She LOVES looking at everything going on at Miniland and for the first time actually ventured into the water play area. She normally loves water, but I think that the water shooting up out of nowhere still scares her. She would move slowly into the area and when the water would start to shoot, she would start running to me screaming----looking scared, but once she reached me, she would start smiling and go back for more. It won't be long before we won't be able to get her away from it!
Thanks to everyone who responded in comments and emails with their words of wisdom on getting Keira to eat! I'm going to try every single one of the tips :).

Sounds like you got some great advice on the eating. And yes, all parents go through this about this age.

Love that she is taking to the family so quickly. Just love it.

Oh, hey, for Christmas (this past Christmas) my mom said she would take the family to Legoland or Seaworld. We haven't gone yet. Would you be interested in joining us when we do? It will probably be some time in the next month, two at the latest.

Of COURSE Terri! Keira and I are pretty much regulars there these days. Let me know when in the next couple of months and we'll be there :)

It looks like Keira is pretty good at running now! :)
