Birthdays

While we didn't have a formal party for Zuri or Kai, we nonetheless celebrated their birthdays.  Zuri's birthday fell at a time when she was sick--she had a double ear infection.  Poor girl, so she was not feeling her best for the day (week).

For Zuri's birthday, she got a "big girl" bed--a full-sized bed.  She was growing out of her little toddler bed and not sleeping well, so we opted to get a bed that would grow with her.  She loves it, although she looks so tiny on it!

Alisia and Rendall came over, Heather and Shin were also there, and we all had pizza and had a few gifts for Zuri to unwrap.  She got into it at first, but quickly tired.

My mom had a few gifts for Kai and Zuri, and was able to make it over later in the week.  Kai got a new outfit and a blanket which he snuggled into and fell right asleep while my mom rocked him.  Really sweet.  Zuri got a few new outfits which she loves because she is a little princess with clothes, and some play jewelry.  She was feeling slightly better, but still not up to par.

My sister, Breanna, also came over and spent a little time bonding with Zuri (and she claims she doesn't do well with kids).

For Kai's birthday, which happened to fall on mother's day, J's family came up and we were able to Skype with J's brother, Cory, who is on his mission.  We had an impromptu party for Kai, and lots of pictures were taken with the family and Kai celebrating his miracle first year.

Kai even got gifts from his nurses!  A snugly and a couple outfits!
