Two Months With McKenna

Dear McKenna,

2 months! And yet I still haven’t seen a rent check from you... 

It’s been another fast month with lots of things happening:

• You went on 2 road trips this past month and saw your first fireworks
• You had your first ladies brunch 
• You slept through the night!! (Let’s make this a regular occurrence now)
• You started smiling and talking to us
• You love: being in the action, rattles, Taylor Swift, chatting, curling your toes while you eat, and being held to the point that we’ve deemed you “Snuggle Junkie”
• You can: hold your head up pretty well, turn your head towards noise, kick like Chuck Norris and out-pout your brother

This month was not without opportunities to put you in therapy:

• I dared to put you in an expensive swing so I could fold your laundry
• I make you ride in your car seat while we’re in the car
• Jase called you out for pooping. Loudly. In a store.
• The fact that we dare to put you down for anything... Snuggle. Junkie.

I set you down to get a diaper... way to represent that onesie...

And while your big brother has already broken us in for therapy, you still have added a few things to the topic list:

• You re-enacted what can only be described as a volcano science fair project in your car seat. You demanded to be re-fed afterwards and I now have a slight tick every time I buckle you in.
• Your diapers have made me question how gravity works.
• We got the bills from the hospital.

You’ve been such a fun completion to our family. Even Jase is quite protective and proud of you (don’t get used to it - he’s also pushed you out of his way several times). We love you bunches Snuggle Junkie and cant wait to see what you do this next month.

Love,
Mommy and Daddy
