Food Intolerances...She Really is My Daughter

Well as the post title states Dinara seems to have one if not two different food intolerances. She has most definitely reacted to the Yams we fed her last night and this afternoon. Boy did she ever react...two bathtimes in one day type of explosions (graphic enough for you?). So she is definitely my daughter. I really wouldn't have wished food allergies on anyone but oh well. Those two things are mostly easy to keep out of her diet (yams especially).

Other than that our girl has been an angel. She loves to play (by herself, with us, with her Aunty Fina), she loves to walk/toddle along, and well does everything else a little 16 month old should be doing. She is a delight to us...even when we get a little frustrated. Oh well...part of parenthood I'm sure. Not much else really to state today. Oh! Daddy did the bathing of out little one today...he did a bang up job too. She likes to bathe alone now so no issues there. Mommy is quite relieved about that...my skin couldn't take the abundance of baths.

Well here are some pics of Daddy and Dinara playing tonight. Sorry about the red eye but that's just what happens with the new camera (not nearly as good as my old one...pic quality better but it doesn't have as good a focus). Oh on a side note we got a call from Andrew's mom in St. Petersburg, Russia. She talked to us a bit and asked if I received my Mother's Day card...I had but I found out it was from Paris (fancy eh?). She also told us that friends of hers (and ours) from Van. Island are buying out Europe for Dinara. Just a quick note to you guys...it is appreciated but its too big and we don't have any place to store it. Thank you anyway Lee and Joe. Also, Andrew's Poppy (Grampa on his Mom's side) called today. He inquired after our girl, our trip, and well life so far. He has told us that all of Wally Joe's (Andrew's cousins son) old toys are being stored at Sharon and Diet's for our girl. That way when she visits she has activities (whew we won't have to pack so many toys this way) when we visit in Nanoose Bay.


Look at how our girl can walk on her own.


Daddy tickling his little girl. She is hating every minute of it.


Daddy and Dinara playing the Chase Me game.


Daddy jumping out from behind some foam pads (the blue one is mid-air) and stunning Dinara. She really wasn't scared just shocked. Daddy and her laughed loudly after this.


Daddy and Dinara watching Baby Einstein (Neighborhood Animals).


Lazing about with Dinara.

Just thought of this...we took Dinara to the Park today (Aunty Fina and Uncle Jordan came too). She had a good time. She liked the slide again and loved the swing. She found the swing only so, so until she leaned back. Then out came the large smile. She really just liked having Daddy, Mommy and Aunty Fina walking her around. Lots of sights and sounds for her today. Well that's all for now.
