Spring Fever

For my birthday last year Matt got me this bench I wanted for the porch. McKinley has finally been able to test it out since it's been warm lately. She was enjoying it until...



this happened. Don't worry, I caught her. Lets just say she's still a little wobbly on her own.



She is sooo fascinated by everything outside. No matter how hard we tried we couldn't get her attention to take a picture. This is the best we got out of her. Please ignore my dead plant on the porch and my Christmas wreath still hanging on the door, I'm working on it. :0)



We are getting Spring Fever! It was warm today so we took the stroller for a spin. McKinley loved it so much that she didn't make a peep the whole time.



Afterwords, we came back and hung out on the front porch. It was perfect. I can't wait for it to be warm more often! Notice I didn't say hot. I hate when it's hot!



Sometimes I wonder how it would be to be a baby. You just sit back relax with your blanket and shades and have someone push you around. Doesn't that sound nice? She seems to enjoy it!

Love It!

So I saw this from Sew Much Ado and had to make one for McKinley but with a lot more ruffles. So I took this baseball t-shirt my mom got me for 75 cents and...


turned it into this little number.


Love it!


She makes the perfect model. She even put her little behind up in the air to show it off! Just kidding. Surprisingly, when I propped her up on the couch to take a picture she stood there for a good 15 minutes just looking out the window.


So of course I had to take more pictures!


Love this girl! Can't beat 75 cents!

This may be random but can I tell you how sad I am that Robert's is closing! It's the only place to shop for crafty stuff besides Walmart. Hopefully the rumor is true that JoAnn's is coming to town. I would love that. Then we'd have more places to buy fabric that isn't $9.00 a yard (once again, besides Walmart and the rare occasion when Ace has a good sale).

I hope JoAnn's moves quick because I'm going to have withdraws. I guess if they're slow I will be forced to finish up all the projects I've started. I counted the other day and I have 12 of them! A little ridiculous, I know.

6 (and a half) months old!

Six months already. I can't believe she's getting so big so fast! Ok, so maybe not that big. She went to the doctor last week and she weighs a whole 13 lbs 4 oz! She's in the 7th percentile. She still wears 0-3 months in clothes and is still in size one diapers! This girl does NOT like to eat though so I'm proud of any weight gain. You should see the antics I go through just to get some food down her!


Here she is sporting her new shades. Can I tell you how much I love The Children's Place down in St. George. A couple weeks ago I got 19 things for $49.00 including tax! It's all the nice stuff too like jeans, sweaters, dresses, and skirts mainly stuff for next winter.

I am sad these pajamas are finally getting on the small side (I guess it's about time). They're some of my favorite. They have ladybugs on the feet with antenna's sticking up and she finally discovered them so she sits and plays with her feet. So cute. Although it doesn't look like she cares too much about them in this picture.

I love this girl. I don't think it' s possible for her to be any more spoiled then she is. She's a woman who likes her routines. She loves taking baths but hates getting out so when I get her out I have her binky ready so it's not quite as dramatic of an event and lately when I've gotten her out she simply opens her mouth and waits for the binky with her mouth wide open! Oh it makes me laugh. She is one fun little girl!
