Makenna’s First Easter!

Hope everyone had a great Easter! Ours was awesome. The weather was supposed to be bad but ended up being BEAUTIFUL so we got to play outside some, YAY! I totally went overboard with her Easter basket. I know she is only 9 months (almost 10-yikes!) but I couldn't help myself. She had a great time though and so did I, and that's all that matters, right?

 

Before I go off track and start rambling, check out some adorable pics…

Almost there...

Spring is here! We LOVE playing outside! Makenna has a blast exploring the grass, dirt...rocks. She has tried to taste them but is catching on pretty quickly that we dont eat grass or rocks. She is also getting a lot better on her feet. She totally has it in her to walk, I think she is just scared of falling. She will walk behind a walker-toy. Or if I hold her hands, yesterday she even walked a bit with only holding one of my hands. And if we catch her off guard she can stand on her own- no problem. We are just trying to build up her confidence and let her know she can do it! Definitely within the next couple weeks, she will be a walkin champ!

She also is able to sign for "milk" now. We are still working on other signs like "eat" or "more". She knows what the words mean when I say them and gets all excited but usually laughs when I do the sign.

She has (like most babies) an obsession with cell phones. She is really good about not putting them in her mouth so we have been letting her play with it a little. She now puts the phone up to her ear and "talks". Its the cutest thing. Sometimes its a nice conversation, other times she is yelling- which I have no clue where she gets it from, none of us yell on our phones. I guess she is just trying to get her point across. :o) Check out some videos from the last few days...

Happy Halloween!

Okay, not really. Halloween is long gone. Before you know it, it will be Halloween again. But I promised Makenn's costume pictures way back and finally got them off my brother (who took them). They are too cute not to share, even if they are super late.
