6 months and a little bit.

Seeing the day to day developments can seem slow at times, but when I step back, I realize McKenzie is growing fast. She is sitting up on her own, standing up holding onto my fingers, eating solid foods, and jumping like crazy in her jumper. She is definitely becoming her own little person. Good times!

Look at her feet go



Looks a little like the money wheel on Price is Right

Thanks to Anna and Kevin for the walker. She isn't quite there, but will be soon. It's more like me pulling her around right now.

finding time for her studies

Little Miss Motorboat

I dont know...

Christmas shots!

I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas. We sure enjoyed ourselves in Austin this year. McKenzie finally got to meet her cousin, Kieran. Very cute together, I must say. I was over excited to get a new camera for Christmas this year, so I've obviously been taking more pictures than I've been posting. I'm almost up to 300 just since Christmas, but here are a few that I liked. Happy New Year to all.

Hello again!

We are getting very excited for Christmas. We are doing a gift exchange here in Phoenix with Samantha's family this weekend, and then off to Austin. It'll be McKenzie's first trip on an airplane and first time meeting her cousin Kieran. See his blog http://www.thebutlerfamilyblog.blogspot.com

See the video. Her latest trick is passing objects from hand to hand. She'll be juggling in no time.

Little Mac is getting stronger!

Man, I am slacking!

Since our last post, McKenzie has had a four month checkup in which she is now 12 lb 13 oz and about 25 inches long. Not sure if I've posted that. Here are a few recent shots in some cute clothes. Hope you enjoy.


The sweatshirt was sent by my grandparents, Mouse and Jack. Thank you.

Eat the phone, good! (She eats everything she can grab now, which of course is everything)

Hi cutie

Thanks to the Burkes for the onesie. Very cute.

Have a laugh

This had me cracking up. I have limited time and resources to work out now, so I was doing some sit ups while watching McKenzie. Enjoy. (And yes, 13 is about all I can do)

A fun weekend

McKenzie is looking more and more like Samantha's baby photos everyday.


What a happy grandma! Too bad Purdue is letting us down


What a happy dad! Purdue still stinks this year.

Four generations. We should take the Purdue onesie off

Here it is again. At least little Mac is enjoying her chair.

A more serious McKenzie
