My little snowflake trying to catch a snowflake on her tongue...

But those darn eye lashes are too long and are catching all of them instead;)

Smiley

We surprised Daddy this morning with a little visit at work. I'm not sure who was more excited, Makenna or Brad;).

Happy Birthday to.....me!! 8 months old today!

Makenna had a good good birthday as it was a SNOW DAY around here!  We spent lots of fun family time together and mommy had a little too much fun with the camera once again.....


First, it was monkey picture time....
First shot, in the jamm jamms - all smiles


And this is my monkey everyone..

And finally, time for the party dress! 


Her faces crack me up.  Its near impossible to get a picure of her with her hands calm as she's flailing them around all the time now.

As long as we've got the party dress on..... might as well get a little photo shoot in!

I bet I can get these shoes off...

I'm so pretty!

Woah, where did my shoe go?

Look at me all smiles

This camera wipes me out!

Hi daddy

You're sure that ear is attached to your head?



And finally....story time with mama.  I LOVE stories!!

So, what am I up to this month??

-My PT is going pretty well and I'm down to just every other week now.  I started rolling over more often and pushing up on my front arms, which is really strengthening my neck. 
-I still don't love tummy time, but I am getting stronger and if you give me something to distract me, I don't even notice I'm on my belly. 
-I did start rolling over when I wake up, which makes me very angry as I end up on my tummy and scream until Mommy comes to get me.  She finds me doing a mini pushup in my crib wondering how I got that way. 
-I am down to more of a schedule, eating 4 times a day (2 of those are solid foods) and getting 2 or 3 naps
-I got my first tooth (bottom left) and by the way I'm acting tonight, mommy thinks a second one is about to break through
-I LOVE reading books!  I turn the pages and like to feel every page.
-I really like standing up. I can be super crabby and mommy will stand me up and I'm all smiles.  I've started standing against my exersaucer without any support from mommy
-I generally like anything that makes me a big girl.  Mommy sat me up in my crib the other day and I thought it was the coolest thing to look out the rungs and see her.  I'm pretty sure that's why she likes standing so much.
-I've started kindof pushing up on all fours, but not for very long. 
-I have quite the little personality.  I know how to turn on the charm when I need to and am such a super happy little girl.  I am very intersted in everything around me and like to pound pound pound on my toys.
-Best news - my spitup is FINALLY starting to subside!!!  I only dirtied ONE bib today!!  That's a small miracle in our house! 

Happy Birthday Makenna Lee!!


Now, that's some DEEP snow!

Fun in a laundry basket...


Someone's gettin' ready for the superbowl:) 

This reminds me of some pictures my mom has of me when I was a baby with my head back and chubby cheeked smile.

She just looks so sweet in this one.
