Two Weeks Already!?

Wow, two weeks have come and gone so quickly....that's right....McKinley is already two weeks old. I can't believe it! We are having a lot of fun with her. She really pulls the craziest faces, I laugh so hard all day long. She seems to be staying awake a little more during the day, which I enjoy. She and I sing a lot of songs and play together until I totally tire her out and she falls asleep. And the only time she fusses is if she's hungry or has a dirty diaper and who can blame her, I wouldn't be that happy if that was happening to me either! Here is one of her funny faces:

Robbie has already taught her several very cool rap songs and everytime he gets to dress her he always puts her in one of three onsies; one that says "Daddy's Little Princess" one that says "Daddy's Girl" or one that says "Favorite Things" and lists "Daddy" as the first thing! Seriously she already has him wrapped around her little finger and he loves it! He really is a great dad!

As for me, I spend my time trying to take care of McKinley as best I can while still trying to figure out this leg thing! I think we're doing pretty good. We're still staying with my Mom, but Robbie packs a diaper bag for me each morning with all of the things I need for McKinley before he leaves for work so I have everything I need in one place and my Mom helps me with anything I can't find. Kelly, a good friend of mine, let me borrow a wheel chair and it has made life so much better! Robbie and I can go out shopping and stuff now; it's really made things great. I love it, it's so nice to have such good friends that will help me out. I'm a lucky girl....a great husband, baby, family and friends; I couldn't as for anything more!

Lindsay, you have such a great attitude! When you describe your life with McKinley it makes us want to meet her and snuggle her so bad! We'll plan a trip to come visit... maybe mid July?
Hope you'll be feeling better soon!

I love those cheeks! She is absolutely adorable. Do you have a prognosis on your legs? Is it temporary? You are so positive and upbeat!

That is seriously the cutest little funny face ever! She is adorable! She has so much hair too! Okay, so what are they telling you now about your legs. I'm worried about you!

I'm so happy that I found your blog. Apparently my parents had known about it and had kept it secret. Congrats on your new baby girl-she's adorable. Good thing Lindsay's genes won out. We had fun looking at all 109 of your slideshow pics. Lindsay, so sorry about your nerve injury. We'll keep you in our prayers. Robbie, we'll have to talk sometime. Can't wait to hear your new parenting stories. You are going to be the coolest dad guaranteed! Make sure to introduce McKinley to water-tower climbing and truck pools at an early age. Derek
