The weather was beautiful last weekend, and on Sunday we took the girls to Nottoway Park to fly our kite and have them play on the playground and in the field. It was nice to get out and enjoy the fresh air!
Now that the warm weather is here to stay, I’m looking forward to taking the girls out more often! 🙂
Here are a couple videos I took recently of Mirei on the cradle swing. She seems to like the swing and bouncer and they seem to help lull her to sleep at times.
Below is a video of Mio on the same swing (a gift from Dan’s parents when Mio was born) when she was 5 weeks old. Notice the similar grumpy/sleepy expressions… haha*

Below are some more photos of Mirei from the past few days…
It’s been getting pretty hot recently, so the other day, we invited Mio’s friend Junna over so the two of them could cool down and have fun in the wading pool we pulled out in our backyard.
Mio can play for hours out in the pool! She has her Daddy’s fair skin, though, so we’ve been making sure to liberally the sunscreen. 😉 We’ve also got Mio signed up for toddler swim class lessons at the local rec center starting next weekend, so that should be fun too!
I can’t believe it’s already November! It’s been getting noticeably chillier in the past week, and we’ve been bringing out our winter wardrobe. Mio is now 19 months old, and as my mother says, “just keeps getting cuter and cuter.” Here are some precious moments we captured with her on the playground this weekend.
Giving us high fives while on the swing!
…and then on the tire swing (we used my handbag as a counterweight… lol).
There’s less than two months left in the year, and I can’t wait for all the fun and warmth that the holiday season brings! 😀
Today, we went to nearby Borge Street Park for a couple hours as a little family outing and to give Mio some time to play on the playground to her heart’s content. As usual, as soon as she saw the playground when she got out of the car, she squealed in delight and ran towards it!
I mentioned before that Mio is getting more affectionate these days, and we caught one of such sweet moments on video! Here she is, giving a kiss to Daddy and then blowing Mama a kiss.
