Hello!

Woah, its been a LONG time. I think the last post was over a month ago…but I have been trying to write a blog on Makenna’s sleeping issues for a while now. Someday I’ll publish it. :o)

 

What’s new in the world of Miss Makenna?

Lets see…

Waving- she has started waving more…and does it when people are leaving but she does it when they turn their back. Silly.

No- One of the best things lately is that she understands the word No. And as long as she isn't in a ornery mood, she listens pretty well.

Biting- We have been going through a “biting” phase. I’m not sure if it because she is teething or if she just started another one of her goofy things. For a while she would attack/bite random things. And I mean attack. Then she started doing it to my arm or shoulder while I was holding her. For a bit I wasn’t sure if she was actually trying to bit me or just playing. Last week I was sitting on the couch with my legs crossed and she crawled right over to me and bit my big toe. And you wonder why I call her my little monster? :o) After that we decided we couldnt laugh at her “attacking” anymore. I started telling her no and she has definitely calmed down with it.

Pointing- Yesterday she started pointing, at everything.

Laughing- She went from her baby laugh to this big girl laugh. Its so cute and contagious. She laughs randomly at everything. Especially Neiko (the dog).

Clapping- Over the weekend she started clapping. Its so cute, I love it!

Silly- She has always been silly but she definitely realizes she can get laughs out of people now. She makes this super silly face where she presses her tom and bottom jaw together, does a big grin and then kind of shakes. Almost like she has a shiver. Ill have to get it on video. Too silly.

Who needs clothes?!- She HATES socks now. I don't even try to put them on when we are home because they are off within 2 minutes. She takes them off as soon as we get in the car. Little stinker. At least she is doing this now that the weather is getting warmer. A few days ago she decided that shirts aren't fun either, she tries to pull them off. Luckily she doesn't really get it. I have a feeling this summer will be spent mostly in just a diaper.

 

Well, that's all I have time for right now…she is getting into everything as I type. I promise to upload pics soon, I know its long over due!
