I know I have been so bad about posting frequently lately, i hope to be better about regular posts, maybe once a week...yea I think I can do that.
In less than one month our crazy, silly, cuddly, and oh-so-sweet Makenzie turns the big T-W-O! I am so excited because 1) I HEART BIRTHDAAAAAAYS 2) she is more and more fun everyday.
I am sad because, well, time is going way too fast.
She is changing so much right now and i'm not good about writing things down when they happen so this post is a few fun facts and "makenzie-isms" before I forget them and they go un-journaled.
Its amazing how much her vocabulary has grown just in the past 2 weeks. She knows and says so much, i am continually surprised at what comes out of her mouth. (in a good way!)
She loves looking at pictures and naming all her cousins and aunts and uncles. This puts the biggest smiles on our faces since she doesn't see them all the time, yet she still recognizes and "knows" them. And loves them, of course :)
She is CONSTANTLY singing! Her favorite songs to sing are "E-I-E-I-O" (aka Old Macdonald had a farm), Jesus wants me for a sunbeam, ABC's, and her latest, "Head, Neen and Toes" (Head, shoulders, knees and toes).
She loves to say "pease" thank you" "i silly" or "i funny", "i hold it?" "oh my goodness" "daddys coke" "i cuddle" "and "i two". Everything is mommy/daddy, baby, like when we're talking about her letters- big A=" daddy A", little A= "baby A"
She can count to 10. Although wen she's playing by herself and counting it's "1,2,3,5, Ella, Bell" (Ella= Cinderella, Bell= Bell from Beauty and the Beast). She's never seen any of the Disney princess movies, but she loves her "Ella, Bell and White" books.
She loves her "amals" and sleeps with 4 every night- sheep, kitty, puppy, and bear (one from Jake that she says is from "nice daddy") She also loves playing with her babydolls. She got a baby stroller for Christmas and is really racking up the miles on it.
This was our first real snow here in DC and Makenzie couldn't get enough of it!
She walked with her tongue out and head tilted up
She is obviously enjoying her first hot chocolate as well :)
Her hair is getting so long so it's "piggies" or "ponies" everyday and I love it!
She is seriously obsessed with hats, purses, and sunglasses so this little ensemble was all her choice :)
She is her father's daughter...
She loves being outside and doesn't seem to even notice the cold.
We've been lucky with a very mild winter so far here so we are still able to go to the park a few times a week.
Making marshmallow rainbows with our Preschool co-op group.
Representing the Wizards at her first game of the season!
