Family

Here is Alexis. She has been a great babysitter to Mckayla this summer. She really is her favorite auntie!!



Here is Justin and Mckayla on Father's Day. Boy oh boy she is a daddy's girl. We call her "cling on."



Mom and Mckayla before church.



Here is the cutest girl ever. Mckayla is 21 months old and in the "toddler" stage. We can't believe how fast she is growing. She speaks very well and has an extensive vocabulary. She can say calculator and elephant. She loves to be outside and explore her world. Her favorite phrases include: "I want to go outside." "I want to go to the park." "I want a snack." "I want to watch elmo." "I want my blankie." Can you see the pattern? "I want...I want....I want...."



Here is Justin with Mckayla and our nephew Caden.

4th of July Weekend

For the 4th of July weekend we decided to bike the Ogden River Parkway. Mckayla got to be pulled by daddy in the bike trailer. We started in Riverdale and biked to the mouth of Ogden Canyon. It was about a 14 mile ride. Mckayla loved it. She did so well for biking so long. Later that day we went to my parents house for food and fireworks.

Zoo

We took Mckayla to the zoo for the first time. Her favorite animals were the giraffes and the wild cats.

Our Sunshine

Mckayla is an active and growing toddler. Here is a definition I came up with to define her toddler stage.
Toddler=wanting to go to the park everyday, requesting pretzels, cookies, and cheese for breakfast, thinks every movie is Baby Einstein or Elmo, can name all the zoo animals, can count to ten skipping a few numbers in between, is seen having tantrums at the store when she can't have a new ball, and must have her favorite blanket and stuffed animal (Hello Kitty) to sleep with.
