20 months old and enjoying the summer!





We're gaining on 2 years old! Karina has been having fun with her friends, playing in her new backyard and at the local water parks. Her favorite word is now "NO." She is entertaining us with her impression of a chicken however. We'll try to get that on film. Very exciting news is that she can finally stand up on her own from sitting!! For a kid who never crawled, this is a big feat (and has made everyone's life easier!). I couldn't decide on one picture this time, so the two above are my favorites :)




Karina's new (used) sand and water table. A better word for it is a mud table :) She loves it! Also notice the new fence and dirt area. The dirt area is where all the concrete used to be. Soon we will have grass!

The pigtails never get old. She still looks very cute! If you say the word cute in front of Karina now, she will put her finger in her cheek and make a dimple...

Mamma and Karina having fun with the camera.

Karina having fun with a balloon all dressed up for a birthday party.

Kind of enjoying her ice cream cone.

Enjoying dinner sitting in a big girl booster seat :) She's eating flank steak, israeli couscous and peas.


Trying to figure out how to play t-ball.

Running through the water fountain.

Alice and Karina on the slip and slide! Neither was too interested in slipping or sliding but the sprinklers on the side and pool at the end were a big hit.

We've also been doing a fair amount of grilling at our house and with friends. Karina definitely loves ribs!
