In The Past Six Weeks ...

... We became parents for the first time when we welcomed a beautiful little darling girl (with a stroooonng set of lungs) into our lives. We didn't have a name for her for quite a while! So we called her "baby," "little rascal" or "tinkerbelle". Her feet were so little, none of the booties or socks we had would fit. Ditto for the rest of her clothes.

But she played, ate ... ... pooped (the pic below shows the face she makes when she makes her diaper dirty!) ...
... WAILED her head off now and again (she still brings the roof down with her cries) ....... slept ... ... made faces ...

... and GREW!!! At birth, she was just 2.57kg. At her one-month checkup, she hit the scales at 3.9kg :-))
Oh, and she finally got a name too. We now call her Kiara, which is the Anglicised version of the Italian "Chiara" which means "Bright". Her Chinese name means "lively, active mind". She's the love of our lives!

So much changes in six short weeks, doesn't it?
