Catching Up

Our little Makenna is growing like a weed! I haven't weighed her lately but I know she weighs quite a bit more than the 9 pounds 10.5 ounces she was at her two month check up. I'm betting she is getting close to 11 pounds now. I took this picture last night during naked baby time. Every night around 8 she gets crabby and the only thing that seems to make her happy is stripping her down to her diaper and letting her play on the floor "naked" for a while before jammies and bed.
Check out that chub! Sooo cute!

She is 12 weeks old today which means one bittersweet thing for me, I'm back to work on Thursday. I am excited to go back to work. I love my job and I really enjoy the people I work with but at the same time I LOVE being home with Makenna. I think I'll have a hard time the first couple of weeks but I'm sure it will get better. It helps that everyone she will be with I trust and know that she will be in good hands and I only work 3 days a week (12 hour shifts) so I'm home more then I'm away. Now to play a bit of catch up from the last couple of weeks.

~Easter~

We spent Easter with my family and kept things pretty low key. We had a big family dinner and later had an Easter egg hunt for the kids. I'm excited that next year Makenna will get to be a part of it.

Here she is in her pretty Easter dress.

The Sabin Family

Makenna and cousin Jared. Check out that smile!

Cousins

The girls did NOT want their pictures taken. Jared thought it was cool as long as he got to wear his shades. What a stud!

Makenna of course had to have a blow out TWICE on Easter luckily not in her pretty dress but in both her Easter outfit and her extra outfit. Luckily I had jammies in the diaper bag to. Here she is taking a bath in the sink at Nana and Papa's house. She won't fit in that sink much longer!

Cuddling in her bunny jammies and her new ducky she got in her Easter basket.

~New Camera~
We got a new camera last week, we have been wanting one for a long time but things never seemed to work out financially. We got a decent tax return this year so we were able to finally get our camera we have been wanting for a long time! We are still learning how to use it to take really nice pictures. Good thing it is pretty user friendly. Here are some pretty pictures we have taken of our little Makenna Grace.
This is my favorite picture! She is such a sweet baby girl!

Cutie pie!

Makenna loves eating her hands. Evidently they taste delicious!

Her play mat is probably the best toy for new babies! She kicks and plays for over an hour sometimes! She thinks it is just the best!

After researching jogging strollers for what seemed like forever. I finally made up my mind and bought a stroller. Here is Makenna after our maiden voyage. She just woke up, she slept the whole time.

Bright Eyes!

Bath time is Makenna's very favorite! She splashes and kicks and has so much fun!

Fresh from the tub! I love her little smerk!

Thanks for the new pics Reba! She really is a pretty baby, and I agree with you - the one of her in pink that you have as your fb profile pic is my favorite too. And that one of her cracking up at Jared - SO precious. Apparently he is quite the jokester.
