Thanksgiving Turkey Craft...

I have been trying to get back into the craft mood lately and just havent been able to do it! Well finally I sat down with Mackenzie and we were able to create a turkey that I found the instructions for on the internet! The fun thing was that the craft includes her hands and feet in it so I will always remember how little she was. (I am one of those people who keep things) lol =o)

Although it isn't Thanksgiving yet HAPPY THANKSGIVING and gobble gobble...

The parts to our craft...

The body of the turkey all complete...

Finished product... =o)

Two year photos...

On Sunday, November 1st we went and took Mackenzie to get her two year photos done... a little late but oh well they finally got done! =) I LOVE LOVE LOVE what we chose for her to wear... it showed both sides of her personality perfectly I wouldn't have changed one thing about what she wore or any of the pictures that she took. I love my little munchkin to death and I am so blessed to have a very well balanced child. She is so smart and sassy, its amazing what the little ones pick up these days and being in a truck with her daddy driving in California is not a good idea for someone who REPEATS EVERYTHING =) I have to share with everyone what she said just the other day while we were driving through Anaheim, CA. Gary was upset about a certain driver and so he proceeded to cuss him out. What follows may either make you crack up laughing or just shake your head... My two year old daughter told her father the other day, "daddy whats wrong? fucking California stupid ass drivers?" Although I should have told her no and shown her that it wasn't ok to talk like that I was trying my hardest to laugh into my sweater so that she didn't see me! Like I said the things that kid will pick up! =) Well enough chitter chatter... Here are the pics of crazy girl! xoxo

Her calm, happy, fun personality... Known as personality 1!

Easiest way to explain PSYCHO! =) Personality 2!

Gary's favorite photo of the whole shoot! We love that she is so different and eccentric!

Like I said she is my crazy little girl! She is silly, crazy, happy, loving, caring, a princess, spoiled, and LOVED to say the least. I love Mackenzie so much and couldn't see my life without her right now!

Papa Jimmy Jimmy and Me!!!

Tonight was so much fun… We had a great dinner at my great-uncle Glen’s house. We had an awesome time and Mackenzie had so much fun playing with the kitty kitties and the dogs!

Well after our great dinner Mackenzie and her Papa Jimmy Jimmy put together her brand new Handy Manny toy racecar! She and Papa put it together, together it was so cute to watch it and I obviously had to take pictures.

ENJOY!!!

I wish she would keep her eyes open for some pictures... holding her fresh car!!!

The Finished Product!!!

Just by chance...

As Gary and I were sitting with Mackenzie the other day he happened to pull out his phone and have the desire to take a picture of Mack... i mean who wouldn't... but he ended up getting the cutest photo of her watch Monsters Inc and I couldnt help but share with everyone... I love the little sad puppy dog face that she is showing!!! Too cute... Enjoy!

"Birth"day, one and two!!!

Well we finally went to Mackenzie's 2 year check up and like my friend Danielle said, we can now call our babies toddlers... I never really thought that I would be sad about it but I am. I know that Mackenzie is growing so fast and learning new things all the time and talking back... oh so fun... but the saddest thing is that she acts like she doesnt need me anymore due to her going through an I can do it on my own phase! =( But I couldn't ask for a more intelligent little girl... on her actual birthday she counted to 10 on her own while playing with her cards... it was amazing to just sit there and listen to her do that and I couldn't have been more proud! 

Mackenzie is still in the 75-90% in everything: 28.5lbs, 35 3/4in., 46cm (head). She has always been a big girl but I knew she would since I have always been big as well! She only had to receive one shot this time so it wasn't as tramatic considering all that she has been through in the last couple months... But one thing that her Dr. was amazed by was the fact that her and Mackenzie were actually able to have a conversation. She said she is very bright and her vocabulary is outstanding... Makes a parent very proud to hear that! 

Time for a Bath...

So my little "TOMBOY"’ is starting to actually get into dolls now! It is the cutest thing… Mackenzie carries her babies around like they are actual babies. She is so gentle with them and loves them and trys to feed them and give them her milk! Ahhh… being the mother to a two year old girl is so cute, fun, and definetly hard! =) Then there are times like these... BABY BATH TIME!!!

I found Mackenzie on Sunday in the bath tub giving her baby a bath and I thought wow do I get mad or do I just laugh and wanting to capture this I ran and got the camera and was chuckling the whole way back to the bathroom. She had climbed in, after undressing her baby and starting the bath, and sat down and just started washing her baby and having a grand time! I think we sat in the bathroom for a good half hour before I finally told her that we had to get out and go to the store! =) She wasn’t to happy about that but after dinner she got to take her own bath and that made it all better! =)

Being a monkey....

So as most of you know I call Mackenzie my little Monkey, because she practically is one! LOL She will jump around on the furniture and jump from things and then hop onto another thing! Its actually quite funny to watch. She even sits like a monkey which is absolutely hilarious. But on with the story... the other day while I was sitting on the computer my brother Michael and Mackenzie were playing in the office with my backpack! Now normally one would thing that he was putting it on her back and just messing around! UH NO!!! He had put her inside the backpack and was carrying her around like a female monkey would do for her baby. It was the funniest thing and I just had to share the pictures with everyone because its just one of those moments that make you laugh and make you wonder all in the same three minutes! LOL 

In the first photo she was laughing hysterically... but going into the second photo which in all honesty was like the tenth she started getting upset. But she laughed as soon as I put the camera away! =)
