Mackenzie UPDATE!

Mackenzie just turned 6 months old on 11/17/08. She is becoming more and more talkative. I can hear her jabbering away on Grandpa Jo's lap. I don't think she likes football yet, which is what my dad is watching right now. She prefers to be sitting up either on her own or in someone elses lap. She really loves her brother and watches Cole very closely every time he enters the room.

Last time she was at the doctor, she weighed 22.4lbs and was 27 inches long.

Happy Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving Feast

Friday Cole's new school hosted a Thanksgiving Family Feast.

This was one of the cutest things I've ever seen. After lunch the kids sang a couple of songs that they sing in class. Cole, as usual, was less than compliant and needed some assistance.

The Preschooler

November 17, the day after Cole turned three, he started preschool. Here we are putting on his backpack which is half his size. In fact, after we put it on Cole tipped over backwards. Cole seems to like school. The first day we dropped him off, he just jumped right into the group playing with a big pile of toys. He didn't even turn around to say goodbye. And yes, I cried!

The first 2 days of school had him so stimulated he didn't take a nap when he got home. I knew the change in his schedule would catch up to him. And it did on the third day when the teacher carried him out of class.
