Monkey and the Basket....

Well not to much has been happening the past couple weeks... nothing exciting anyways. Just trying to get back into the groove of Gary being gone and all that jazz. But like always we have been hanging out with my parents a lot... from my brothers basketball games to my school and softball we have just been over there at least four times a week. Thanks mom and dad... =) But Mackenzie has an absolute blast over there all the time... She loves her uncle Devin and every chance she gets they play together... Well speaking of my little brother he has this orange monkey about the size of Mackenzie and she just absolutely loves it... She will play and wrestle with this thing. Its so cute.... and then there is also this pink laundry basket that my parents have had since my brother was learning to walk (over 9 years ago) and it is actually also how Mackenzie learned to walk. But that is another thing that she and uncle Devin love to play with... Well here are some pictures of the monkey and the basket! 

18 months...

Well my big girl turned 18 months yesterday and of course I cried! I just can't believe that in six short months she will be turning two... It is just so odd and makes you wonder where in the world the time has gone! 

Here is a picture with daddy the morning of February 8th, 2009! Such a big girl and yay I am actually able to do her hair now! =)

So on another note we took her in for her 18 month well check today and luckly their were no shots due... Thank goodness! For some odd reason she was ahead and I wasn't going to complain! =) She is still the big girl we know and love: 26lbs 8.8oz. (75%), 33inches (85%), 48cm (head) (80%) so all around she is a very well rounded child the doctor was very impressed with her speech and being able to actually communicate with the doctor as she was checking her out! Also Gary and i sat down the other night and wrote down a list of all the words that Mackenzie knows and she is up to 75 as of our count this evening. I am so proud of her and am so lucky to have a smart little girl!

WE LOVE YOU MACKENZIE LYNN!!! HAPPY 18 MONTHS OUR BIG GIRL! 

Panda and Cars...

Okay so I know that I havent posted about the little one in awhile. Sorry school is starting to take over my life! =) We havent been up to, to much lately just hanging around the house getting some things done. Mackenzie and daddy have been having a wonderful time hanging out together for the last month the sit and play all day long and watch movies or play race car games. 

So the latest two things that Mackenzie has absolutely fallen in love with are Kung Fu Panda and Need for Speed:Carbon! It is the funniest thing with b

oth. 

For "Panda" as she calls it she will just sit and watch the movie with maybe one or two words in between she even knows some of the words to the movie, although mommy and daddy know them all, its getting to the point I am going to erase it from my T.V. But then again it is how I finally am able to get things done! 

As far as the racing game goes its hilarious when Gary turns on the television and his XBOX she knows right away to go and get her remote which she calls "Cars." She will just sit and play with him and it is just adorable to watch the both of them. =) 

Well I hope that you enjoy the pictures below! TTFN!

This is Mackenzie watching Kung Fu Panda...
