I can’t believe Kivrin’s already three weeks old! She is getting more interested in looking at her toys, and she is smiling and watching our faces when we talk. This week she started grabbing on to the fabric of our shirts, and grasping my finger with her hand more. She likes to be outside — during a heavy rain, we sat on the back porch together and the cool air and the noise seemed to calm her. We try to take several short walks every day around our neighborhood — but we try to limit ourselves so that we don’t end up at Dairy Queen on every walk. Kivrin is still wearing newborn diapers and clothes, but probably not for much longer. Last Wednesday, (9-10) she weighed just over 9 pounds at the hospital’s Breastfeeding Clinic and her weight gain has been averaging over an ounce a day.
A verbal snapshot of Kivrin’s life
- Kivrin can count to ten! And she does. Frequently! 12 years ago
- Later, no thank you, now, one more time, almost done, excuse me, please. All powerful words from the mouth of a toddler... 12 years ago
- Kivrin is two years old today! Happy Birthday baby girl, we are so impressed and amazed by the person you are growing up to be! 12 years ago
- Toddler logic: Blowing on the outside air on a sweltering day will cool it off enough that mommy will agree it's not too hot for a walk. 12 years ago
- Toddler logic: Kivrin skinned her knee, therefore her baby doll needs a bandaid. 12 years ago
- Kivrin switched from the terse "hi" on her play phone to a more elaborate "ay-yo" hello style greeting. Verbal skills increasing daily!!! 12 years ago
- This morning Kivrin choked on a cracker and made a mess of her shirt/carseat on the way to school. She named the incident her "big cough." 12 years ago

I came to your blog because I saw you had a blood elf as your icon — and I’m staying because your baby is JUST ADORABLE! Congratulations on your little girl. Kivrin is a really lovely, unique name.

I have yet to see Kivrin live! As soon as my schedule settles down some, we will have to get together and introduce the newest little Crafter of our circle!
