Mckinley


Mckinley is nearly 5 months old. I'm pretty sure I was just 5 months pregnant. Sometimes I think back and wonder if I missed anything during these past few months. Now that I have two kiddos, juggling could quite possibly be my new occupation. Cayden is such high maintenance that I sometimes feel bad that I'm not spending enough time with her. It's as though I nurse her and then have to put her down to tend to her brother. Luckily, Cayden is patient enough, enough for a two year old, to "allow" me to nurse easily. She's so easy going and seems content just about anywhere. Cayden entertains her without him even knowing it. She just giggles and laughs at nearly anything he does. Starting next Tuesday, Cayden will begin Mother's Day Out, so Mckinley and I will have some time together. Although it's super hard sometimes, I'm thoroughly enjoying this season with my babies for I know that it'll be over before I know it. I just need to learn to slow down and give even more hugs and kisses. You should too!!


Mckinley had a blowout and ruined her clothes. Enough said...she's still in a diaper. :)
So instead of changing her into new clothes, knowing a bath was just beyond the horizon, she joined us on the kitchen table as we ate dinner. It's practically tradition for her to sit with us on the table while we eat and she entertains us with giggles. I see three rolls just in her tummy and several on each arms. I love it!!






This is Mckinley once we got home from the doctor's office for her 4 month shots. She weighed 17lbs and 7 oz. I forget her length, but seriously, we're all wondering about her weight, so there it is. At this age, she looks just like Cayden did, especially the matching chin. Thanks daddy!
