Happy 2 Months Old and Checkup

Our baby girl is two months old today, I can't believe how fast it has gone. She is so much fun to be with and it is so much fun to see her learn and grow everyday. The picture was taken about a week ago, I love how she is smiling now, it is so cute. She had her checkup today and our little girl weighs 10 lbs 8 oz and is 22 inches long now. She is in the 50 percentile for weight and the 36 percentile for her length. She has progressed so much from her two week check up at that appointment she was in the 4 percentile for her weight and the 16th percentile for length. She had her shots today and it was kind of sad but she did pretty well, I have been giving her baby tylenol to help with the pain. I hope she does well the next couple of days. We sure love this girl, she is so much fun.

Makenna's First time on a Train and what's been going on

This was Makenna's first time on a train at Lagoon. We went there for my parent's stake Lagoon day. She kind of liked the ride. She is becoming more alert now, so she likes to look around and see everything.

She loved sitting in grandma's arms and chilling.

My nephew Logan who is 3 loves to hold Makenna!! Whenever we come over he is always saying I want to hold baby. He sometimes forgets her name and gets her mixed up with my niece who doesn't even live here named Emma. We always ask him what's her name and she says Emma and we say no Makenna. It is so funny!!


We took Makenna to the park a couple of sundays ago and had a fun time playing in the stream and just enjoying the great outdoors. Yes that is my daredevil husband holding Makenna while standing in the stream, I was telling him to not drop her.

In this picture it looks like she has such a hard life.
I would like to phrase it as It aint easy being beautiful.

These are her cool Newborn sunglasses that look
huge on her.

My daughter is so cool

Now with this onesie she is wearing there is a joke behind it. So when we found out Makenna was a girl I asked Chris what should we name her and he said how about Dixie? I said that sounded like a dixie cup and he said well it's better than Trixie like a ho name. So as a joke we started calling her Trixie and it caught on with my co-workers and some of my family. My mom would shake her head anytime anyone called her that. So my sister in law had her friend make her this cute little onesie with the name on it, I had to have her wear it once.


My dad is in love with Makenna and can't get
enough of her. I love this picture, it is priceless.

Well everything is going good and life is just going along. Chris just finished his first term of school. He is going to Utah State through the extension program so all of his classes are online. He has really liked taking classes. He hopes to get his bachelors within three years. He is going to be burnt out by the end cause he is doing school full time and work full time. He is an awesome dad and an awesome father, he can do anything he sets his mind to. I am so proud of him he got A's in all of his classes for this term, Good Job Honey!! He has three weeks off now so we are hoping to have some fun and play while he is off. As for me I no longer work for Marriott and am an official stay at home mom, life is great. I will miss my friends at Marriott but I would much rather stay at home with this cute girl. Life is great!!!
