Baby, I was born this way.




Today I held this picture up for Mckinley to see and asked her who she thought it was. Without any hesitation, she said, "Kinley!". When I tried to explain this was daddy, she wasn't having any of it. Can you blame her? This was Mark. Probably around Mc's age. Looking ever so dapper in a sweet sweater vest combo. I say, put some long hair on him and you have Mc. Mark and I are trying to decide what our baby boy will look like- will he have hair, brown eyes, Mark's birthmark? I am just excited to hold him and meet this little guy.


Just wanted to also document some of the funny things Mc's has been saying lately as not to forget:

1) "You are kidding me" (usually as she "talks" on her phone or you try and get her to do something she doesn't want to d0).

2) "I can't take it anymore"- my favorite as we are carting her out of sacrament meeting during her tantrum.

3) "I want Single Wadies"- she is OBSESSED with Beyonce's "All the Single Ladies". Loves to dance and shake her "ring" hand.

4) "I am going to dance cwass".

5) "I want princeth" or "cassle princeth"- this can mean a variety of things- a skirt, a dress, Sleeping "Booty" or a headband


6) Up until last week, her shoes ("rabbit shoes" because of the puffy top) were a daily staple. Upon dancing so vigorously to "Single Ladies", one broke. We are now on the prowl for some new
ones.

She is getting too big and is so smart. She can throw a tantrum like no one's business but we sure love her. It is fun to see her get excited and to start taking interest in things like riding a bike, cooking with mom and "bones". It will be interesting bringing the new baby home and seeing how she will interact. Having two kids is a little daunting but Mc is a great helper and is going to be a great big sister- Cinder-"allah" dress ups and all.

She looks just like Mark! And you guys are in for such a different world with boys... although, I wonder if he will love the "princeth" stuff since big sis does?!

Yeah, Mc is a little mini-Mark (girl version, of course). It's always fun to guess what your baby will look like, and then when they're here, you can't imagine them looking any different. I can't wait to see the little guy!! And call me when you want to hit the Point again. Hopefully we'll all be healthy.

Nice of you to join the blogging world again! Can't wait for Logan to get here either! I had a name I thought was cute that I want to tell you about, see what you think! :)

I bring nothing to the table when it comes to boy names. What happened to Leroy Roy? We've been fictionally calling our baby Guido. Chances are we won't get to use it, so it's all yours! J/k. And yes, Mc does look an awful lot like Mark. How's potty training? We're in week 2 and well, I think this may take some months!
