What do you think?


What do you think of these pages? I just could not seem to capture the moment with anything that I tried. I guess that you just never really can.

BLUE JEANS!














Here are a couple of pictures of Makayla in her jeans and a yellow onesie. She looked really comfortable to me. I just thought that she looked so cute that I had to share thes pictures with you. I need to start taking pictures of her on the carpet instead of the rug. It is just not very photo friendly.

No news is good news!

No new news really, but Makayla had the best day today that she has had at daycare in a while. She has just been really fussy for the past couple of weeks. She does much better when she is able to eat cereal at daycare which she started last week. Her teacher said that she is finally getting back to her old self. We assume that teething or eczema was the culprit.

Makayla had peas for the first time tonight. I did not take any pictures, but she did not hate the peas surprisingly. I was expecting her to hate them since they stunk so bad when I opened the container. Hum, Maybe I thought that they stunk because I hate peas?
She did not love them or hate them, so it went Okay.

I LOVE DIGITAL SCRAPBOOKING!

Here are some more pages that I did. Beth told me that I needed to have 2 matching pages for each page, so both sides of the book match. I have done that with my pages now. I am going to make 1 journal page for each scrapbook page with pictures to give some narrative for the pictures. Here are my pages that match. I hope that you are enjoying the tunes and new look!


Valentines Day!


Carrots!
Easter

First Snow

Happy Easter!

Today was Makayla's first Easter. The Easter Bunny came to see her for the very first time! He brought her some bunny ears (for picture purposes), an Easter rattle, applesauce, and some bananas. He also brought Nathan a candy bar. Apparently, he did not get the memo that I should have gotten something too. Just kidding! Nathan shared his with me.
We went to church this morning and Makayla stayed in the nursery. Our Sunday school was packed this morning. I guess that everyone stayed in town for the holiday. This evening Makayla's Grandaddy, Granna, Grandma, and Uncle Ryan came over to visit and eat. Whitney (Ryan's girlfriend) came too. Granna and Grandma also got to feed her Green Beans, Squash, and cereal tonight. Here are some pictures from today.

Please, Ignore me if possible. I could not seem to edit myself out of this picture in any good way, so I am just in her picture. This is Makayla in her Easter dress that she got from her Granna. It is green and yellow gingham with Noah's Ark smocked on it.

Makayla and her uncle Ryan. He was not really as happy to be wearing her ears as it seems he is in the picture.

Nathan, Makayla, and me in our lounge around the house clothes this evening. Makayla is actually wearing her "funny bunny" T-shirt that she got from her Aunt Connie. You just can't see it because she is showing her belly.

Congratulations Starla!

Nathan and I went to my friend Starla's wedding today. We really enjoyed it. It was a very nice wedding. I will have new pics to post tomorrow. I just posted some scrapbook pages that I made.

Makayla's big smile!

How Funny! Makayla fell asleep holding on to her swing.
Here is a picture of Makayla's BIG smile. She gets really excited when her Daddy makes faces and acts silly. She has been playing with her toys much more this weekend. I think that she just has to be in the mood for them. She usually would rather just socialize than play with her toys. She has also started to roll onto her side from her back. I don't think that she knew how to do that until I showed her this week. Now she does it all the time!
Makayla started Green Beans this week. She loves them! We are going to introduce squash next and sweet potatoes after that. After she has tried all of the veggies she will get to try some fruit. We also started a second feeding of cereal this weekend. Now she gets cereal in the morning at daycare and cereal and a veggie at night after she gets home.

Makayla's Happy Plate


Makayla had carrots for the first time tonight. This is a slide show of her first veggie experience! Look she made a happy plate. Really, she ate the whole jar of carrots and 2 tbs. of rice cereal tonight. Dr. Blair said to feed her until she didn't want anymore, so I did.

Her shots went well today. I really liked her new Dr. It was a good decision to switch. Whoever says that there is only one good pediatrician in the world anyway? The nurse was really fast with the shots too. We found out today that she has eczema which could cause fussiness. The Dr. also said that she may possibly be teething because she was chewing so hard on her hands. Another possible scenario that the Dr. mentioned was that she might be fussy because she is spoiled and wanting to be held. She was really fussy at daycare before she went to Dr. Blair's. The Doc said that she looked good , so we know that she is fussy because she is itchy, teething, or just spoiled .

more photoshop fun

I have really been having fun with this. Here are some photos that I edited today. Makayla has been a little fussy this weekend. She is not running a fever or anything. She does not seem gassy either. I plan to ask the dr. about it tomorrow. I bet she is teething, so her mouth is just sore. I can actually feel a little tooth in the back trying to poke through. .

Snow Day!

We all three got to stay home today due to the snow. It started snowing around noon and continued snowing all day. For those of you who don't live around here, everything shuts down for 2 inches of snow. It was really pretty, though. We took a couple of pictures of Makayla in the snow. We only took her out for about 2 minutes just to take these pictures. We just couldn't let this momentous occasion pass us by! I am really getting into digital scrap booking, so this is the page that I did for Makayla's first snow. There is also a picture of Makayla and her paci that her Granna got her. It is a really pretty picture in my opinion.

Makayla was supposed to get her shots today, but the Dr. cancelled due to the weather I assume. She is going on Monday for her shots. I am sure that will not be a very nice experience. We are going to a new Dr. that is in Cabot, so I will let you know how that goes.

Happy 4 month birthday to me!

Makayla is 4 months old yesterday. She had a play date with her friend Luke. He and his parents go to church with us, and Makayla and Luke go to daycare together. Can you believe that I forgot to take pictures? We videoed them, but took no pictures.

Update on the paci situation. Makayla has a favorite now. It happens to be the only boy paci that we have, and the only one that Montana tested first. So she officially loves her blue paci that has doggie chew marks on it. Here is another video of her tummy time.
