Family Pictures

It is rare that we get a family photo. It's usually John and Makaylee or me and Makaylee in the picture. So I came up with the perfect Mother's Day gift for me, family pictures! (I figured I would help Makaylee out. Afterall, she's only one.) My friend, Angela McAllister, took our pictures for us. I love them! She did such a great job. Here are just a few of our favorites.

This one's my favorite.


This is John's favorite.


Another good one



I absolutely love this one of Makaylee. She's 13 months old now. She's not walking yet, but her favorite thing to do is to hold anyone's fingers and walk. She thinks she needs to do it all day.

So happy walking with Daddy


She's still funny about eating, but she definitely has her favorite things. She LOVES bananas and graham crackers (which she calls cookies). The other day John asked her what she was eating and she said "cookie". We loved it.

She also loves to drop things and say "uh-oh". It's darling, but, I'll be honest, it drives me crazy after awhile. This morning my arms were full as I carried her to the car. All of a sudden I hear "uh-oh". I look down and see her binky on the ground. Silly girl.

Makaylee's also sleeping so good again. I love it. Around 8:00/8:30 we read a story and I put her down. She snuggles with Mickey and is asleep shortly after. I guess having all her molars through is helping. She now has 12 teeth.

While I have loved every stage, I think this is one of my favorites. We have so much fun playing together, and I see more and more of her little personality shining through. She's such a happy little girl. I love her and so does her daddy.
