Crackerhead

After enjoying a meal of ravioli and veggies, McKenzie still had room for a Ritz!

How long before we have to buy McKenzie her own iPhone? She LOVES playing with Granddaddy Carter's phone, especially when he plays music for her.

Same Old, Same Old

I know there's been more than one picture like this, but I just can't get enough of these close-ups with those eyes!

Note to Self

McKenzie can get into drawers now.











And for those of you wondering, that is a brand new, never been chewed on, rawhide treat for the dogs.

Feet Crossed

What a little lady! She always seems to have her feet crossed, even at the dinner table. And yes, they are very dirty little feet. We've moved to almost daily baths for McKenzie because after a day of crawling and trying to walk, she's usually pretty messy.

So Close

I caught this cute shot of McKenzie looking out the window. She was just standing there, patiently waiting on something that you can see below. Just a few days before this picture, our little girl took her very first steps!!! On May 27, Brant and I were sitting on the couch as McKenzie cruised around, hanging onto the ottoman. Suddenly, she pulled her arms away from the ottoman and stood on her own. The next thing we knew, she was taking steps towards Brant and then she crashed into his lap. It was amazing... and hilarious! Since then, she's taken many more steps and I think she'll be walking with ease by her birthday. Now see below, where her patience was rewarded!

Swimsuit Edition

We are just two days away from summer. That's two days away from my adventure as a stay-at-home mom. I'm excited and nervous! Since I went back to teach this year, we have been blessed with a fantastic caregiver, Mrs. Nancy. She has been wonderful for McKenzie and I couldn't have asked for anyone better. But now, it's my turn. Summer starts on Wednesday and the plan is for me to take the next school year off and take care of McKenzie. I've been telling her all about going to the pool so I think she's pretty excited!
