Cute Baby

Playpen

She's starting to lean against the sides and pull up in her playpen. When we press our hands against the mesh sides, she puts her hands on our. She likes to have her hands tickled through the mesh, also. So far though, she hasn't squashed her face against the mesh yet (Megan used to make faces against the side of her playpen when she was a baby).

Poor Lily

"Ooooh, a kitty!"

Thankfully, Lily is still being really tolerant of Kenzie

Crib

This is how I find her almost anytime I rescue her from her crib after a nap or a night's sleep.. About half the time though, she's bending at almost a 90-degree angle at the waist, with her arms holding onto the railing way abover her head, about to topple over.
Enjoying her new view from her crib...

Fun!

Mackenzie really liked sitting on her daddy's shoulders!

Eating Cheerios

Here's a video of her eating cheerios:

Silly baby

If you look closely at this picture, you can see her two bottom front teeth.

She likes to blow raspberries on us (here she's doing it on my knee)

Blowing raspberries in the air..

And here she is blowing raspberries on her bedroom door...she pretty much just likes to blow raspberries anywhere she can.

Video

Here's a video of her blowing raspberries on her door. It's also pretty cute when she bangs on her door and yells at it, trying to escape her room.

Cute overalls

Playtime

Playing with her kitchen.
She's learning to crawl over the stuffed animal barriers that we put up.

Walking video

Here's a video of her "walking" with Dustin. Her new thing is to yell at things (today at the store, she was staring down some huge Halloween figures and yelling at them to put them in their place). We got her on video walking around and yelling, we think just for the sake of yelling. She can be pretty loud!

Messy Eater

Here's she eating some pasta pieces. I mixed it into her baby food first, but then decided to let her eat it with her fingers. She got it everywhere, but had a lot of fun. And she's getting a lot better at feeding herself!

She even got food around her eyes.

Here's a video of her eating her pasta.

Standing

In a pretty dress, eating her bunny

Video of Pulling up

Here's a video of her pulling up to her changing table:

Pulling up

She's pulling up more often now (here she is at her changing table)

She was momentarily distracted ...
... but then decided that throwing her blankets off the table was much more fun ...
... so we cleaned the shelf off so that she can play on it.

Diapers

One of her new favorite activities: pulling all of her diapers off of the organizer, and opening every single one of them. She also likes to crumple them up and chew on them.

Wyatt

Monica, Aaron, and Wyatt came back to Dallas for a surprise visit last week! Kenzie was excited to see him. It won't be long before he's big enough for them to play together.

New Crawling Video

Here's a longer video of her crawling. She's getting better, but is still pretty slow about it, which is wonderful because it gives us a little more time to get used to her new mobility before she is gone in the blink of an eye.

Pulling Up

This is right after she pulled up on my knee (she hasn't started pulling up on furniture or anything else yet, mainly just will use our hand or knee to pull herself up). She started to tumble forward just as I was taking the picture. Still needs to work on her balance a bit! She can also get into a sitting position on her own now!

Cute

Just thought this one was cute

Winnie the Pooh

One of Jaiy's friends (Jenny) had these Pooh stuffed animals from her twins, and since they have out grown them, she passed them down to us. Mackenzie really liked them!
Here she is talking to Tigger ... They are bigger than she is!

They made fantastic barriers that she couldn't crawl over
As usual, she goes for the tags to chew on... She really enjoys playing with them!
