Makenna's First Birthday


Makenna spent her actual birthday with her little buddies Lucas & Gracie. Her sweet friends got her very own JET SKI! - just like Dada's! Her favorite thing to do is to "rock out" to its music while scooting backwards :) We still haven't figured out how to make it go forward.

The Three Amigos :)


After a tasty and well balanced dinner we enjoyed some leftover cake. Makenna was less lady-like this go around. :)


"Oooo that's good!"


Family picture on her first birthday- it's amazing that she sat still and looked at the camera long enough for Grandpa to snap a shot!


It is hard to believe it's only been a year and how far she has come.
Was she ever really that little?


Birthday bath!
It seems our whale tub is getting smaller and smaller.


Makenna's first bath at home (July 1st).
Her tub was more like a pool then.


What a year it's been. We say it often, but we really lucked out with Makenna. From day one she has been an incredible baby. A great eater, great sleeper, we had a few hiccups with the #2 business but we have thankfully put that behind us (no pun intended !). Our smart toddler- still getting use to thinking of her in that way- is saying over 30 words now. Walking with more confidence with each day. Loves playing peek-a-boo, dancing, reading and being outside. She is such an outdoors girl. She has started using spoons and forks, although assisted and even has new sippy cups with straws! She is such a joy and we are so thankful for our sweet little girl.
