"No no!"

Mackenzie,

Daddy heard one of the funniest stories from one of your daycare teachers tonight! When he picked you up from daycare, Ms. Wanda shared this with us:

Ms. Wanda was holding you and you started squirming really hard trying to get out of her arms. When she put you down, you crawled quickly towards your crib. She looked up to see that another child had pulled your silkie out of your crib and was playing with it.

You took your silkie away, shook your hand at the child and said "no no!!"

This was the highlight of my day! You are so cute and it amazes me that you can communicate with other people! Now we just need to work on sharing...

We love you!
Mommy & Daddy

I thought I would join in on the "Blog Hop" fun and share my favorite photo:

Forward-facing car seat - Yippee!

I tried to keep her rear-facing as long as possible, but it was finally time to turn the big girl car seat around.  It was bittersweet - she was obviously excited about the change, but it was sad to say good-bye to one more "baby" thing.




We took her for a drive around the neighborhood to see how she liked it.  She seemed in awe the entire time....who knew there was so much to look at!!


On a side note, as we were driving along, I found my dream house!  Pretty, isn't it?  :)
