Seven Months Old - Labor Day Weekend

Kiera turned 7 months old on Labor Day weekend. On that Friday she started getting a fever. It got worse as the night went on, even up to 104.3! Yikes! We gave her several cool baths and infant Tylenol throughout the sleep-deprived night and went to the pediatrician's office on Saturday morning. They didn't really know what was wrong with her, but gave her an antibiotic and swabbed a sample from her nose. She seemed to be feeling fine, so we went to Chris' family reunion.
Here she is swimming with her cousin Jordan.

Here are Jordan, Nonna and Killian doing a hula dance at the family reunion

Here's the big 7 month old!

Kiera's Milestones:
- sits up really well now
- does a lot of scooting
- clicks her tongue, so cute
- babbles all of the time - bababa, mamama, dadada
- can sit up from lying down; we found her sitting up in her crib for the first time

One final note - the doctor's office called on the Friday after Labor Day weekend and told us that Kiera's lab results showed that she had swine flu! We were shocked and we felt horrible that we took her to the family reunion. Killian came down with the swine flu that weekend after Labor Day, and Chris didn't feel very well either. Luckily we didn't infect anyone outside of our household.
