Our Little "Dragon"

Robbie is a really good sport at night. When McKinley wakes up he heads straight for her room to feed her, change a diaper and put her back to bed. The nice thing is she goes to bed at 10:30 and usually doesn't get up until 3 or 4 and then either 6 or 8. When she wakes up the first time I can hear him on the monitor and he's really great with her. Well, the second time is a little different. He's still very good to her, but he's pretty tired so sometimes he'll bring her in to me and I'll feed her and change the diaper. By the time I'm done he usually back to sleep and I don't have the heart to wake him up for her to go back in her room, so I let her stay in with us for the hour before we all get up to head out for the day. Well, lately when she wakes up in the morning Robbie will turn to me and say "the dragon has awoken". Here is a picture of our little dragon with her dad. I'm thinking he doesn't really believe she's a dragon, I mean who would cuddle a dragon?

A New Toy

So, Robbie was at work the other day and found this cool, squishy super hero (he brought home 2). It seemed kid friendly and baby proof to play with, so he gave one to McKinley and one to my brother Mike. McKinley took to it right away and followed it with her eyes. Mike loved his equally as well.

Introducing...."Eniman".... McKinley's first super hero!

Our Anniversary

Wow, it's been 5 years already! How crazy, I just can't believe how fast all the time has gone by. Friday was our anniversary and my mom was nice enough to watch McKinley so we could go out. Robbie took me out to a movie and dinner, it was great. Robbie is so thoughtful he even got me some flowers, here they are:

I had to post these pictures...

McKinley had her first photo shoot at Kiddie Candids. She so funny, because she's always serious, the girl never smiles when she's awake. I still love the pictures though.

Here are a few more pictures I just couldn't help myself from posting!

(she really poses like this when she sleeps!)

Wedding Bells

This is a little late for a post, but my sister Leslie was married on June 6. What a crazy day. It was so fun and all of my cousins and aunts and uncles came in town. We had a great day and McKinley got to meet most of her Marler and Thomas cousins....sorry if she forgets your name, it was a lot of people! Anyway, here are a couple of pics of the family at the temple, McKinley isn't in them, because it was a little cold, so we had her bundled up tight in her stroller and car seat which are intense enough to practically act like a tent for her!

This one has everyone in it, it was nice to have the whole family there. This picture is a little deceiving though, I still can't walk or use my legs, Robbie just got me up for the picture and held me real tight for the picture so I wouldn't fall.

Here are just the siblings. My brother Mike had the "hold Lindsay so she doesn't fall" duties for this picture.

I have to say the reception was a lot of fun. And the bride looked beautiful, here is a picture of her in her dress. My mom made the dress, she's such a great seamstress.

For McKinley's first wedding I think she did a great job. She got passed around to a million people and didn't even fuss at all. I can't find one now, but when I find a picture of her in her cute little wedding dress I will post it!
