Makenna continues to be quite the charmer. I keep waiting for her to grow out of the "hi" stage, but she just continues to love it more and more. Her favorite is to sneak up on someone with a hi- either someone not looking at her in the grocery store or to crawl into the office to find daddy and surprise him with a big "hi". It really does just melt my heart. I love it when I go to get her in the morning and she repeats up up up until I pick her up and then she looks at me and says "hhiii". Too too sweet. She has started using the hi when she is in trouble too - she'll go after something she's not supposed to have - like Bugsey's water dish - tap her hands in it, look at me and say "hi" all sweet. She is gonna be trouble, that's for sure!!
She continues to turn heads every where we go - the combination of the "hi", the sweet personality and the sheer cuteness make for a lot of fun attention. She eats it up:) So do I, of course.
She is turning into more and more of a daddy's girl. Last month she was all mommy, but ever since they started swimming lessons, she's warming up to him again. She most defnitely has him wrapped around her finger. They are looking forward to their first neighborhood 4th of July parade on Monday - daddy will be pushing Makenna on her trike and riding with Butch and Annika while mommies watch the parade from the sidelines. Can't wait!
Makenna has started to gravitate towards a "woobie" - she loves the silky blanket Oma made for her before she was born and it has turned into her favorite thing. She's nuzzle up to it whether its on your shoulder or laying on the floor. Its pretty sweet.
We are very much enjoying this warm weather now that it is finally here! We haven't made it to the wading pool by our house yet, but maybe this weekend some time we'll have to check it out. I'm sure Makenna will love it! She loves watching the neighborhood kids play outside and once she's walking I'm sure she'll be quick to start chasing everyone around.
Love the tutu butt

pretty funny stuff
Lovin' that pool!
My new favorite thing - the past few days I've started singing Jesus Loves Me to her when she gets cranky. She'll sit back on my lap very nicely and when I get to the part of "Yes, Jesus Loves Me" - she sits up and claps. Its so stinkin' cute! She usually claps a little better than this - but this is the one I got on camera. Don't mind my horrible singing voice:)
Totally forgot to take monthly pics today, too. Will have to try to get them in tomorrow. I hope to post her 1 year pics soon, too. Ben & Corie did an awesome photo shoot with her and I can't wait to see how they turned out!!
Happy 13 months, baby girl!! We love you!! Muah!
