Spelling change

We have decided to change Mckenna to Makenna. It makes more sense this way and hopefully she will not have name problems when older :) Also, an update on Kayle... we no longer have to sit in her room and wait for her to fall asleep! It is great, once again we can lay her in bed, say goodnight, and leave the room. She falls asleep without a peep and we shut the door as we go to bed. YEAH!

The final few months

I am towards the end of the pregnancy already! Well, kinda... I am past the half way mark. I am now 24 weeks pregnant, crazy how fast time goes by! Brandon and I have finally started thinking about what the new baby needs. We need to get a new stroller, again, I feel like I just got a new one for Kayle! We also need to rearrange some furniture and get Kayle a new bed! Anyways, that is besides the point, kinda. The new baby, Mckenna :), is weighing in at approx. 1 pound. She has all her organs and at this point will continue to gain weight and make progress on her ever changing body. She is also beginning to open her eyelids and her brain is starting to develop reflexes. This is the most amazing thing in the world to me and I just love to share it! I looked online for some good images and had a hard time. These are two that I found interesting.

I am awful at trying to make the pictures look perfect but you get that idea. I decided to put a picture up of how Mckenna looks in me, weird to some, interesting to others maybe. Sorry if I have grossed you out :) Mckenna is on the bottom of my uterus and the placenta is on the top so I get kicked in really interesting places :) It is uncomfortable at times but at least I feel the movement. That is something I look forward to feeling for a few reasons but mainly I like knowing that she is still alive. Hopefully these next few months go as well my previous months went!

Kayle's first hair cut!

My little girl's hair has been driving me crazy. I also think it has been driving her crazy so I decided it was time to do some cutting! We walked into Pigtails and Crewcuts and got right in. They asked me what I wanted to do with her hair. My response was, "I have no idea". All I knew was I wanted it a little less poofy and out of her eyes. Sometimes her curls get a little crazy. The hair stylist said we could give her a Halo layer... ok, whatever just make sure it is cute! Well, Kayle sat in her taxi car seat still as can be. She made me proud! Approximately 10 minutes later Kayle was done and had a big smile on her face! A successful trip!
