Good Ol' Dad

Mackayla loves to help out with everything. She always wants Daddy to hold her as he mows the lawn. Its her way of making things easier for him, cause you know otherwise he'd get really lonely mowing all by himself.

Today when after Jared got home from a long day of work, he was in Mackayla's room playing with her while I was preparing dinner. After a while Mackayla came into the kitchen and I asked her where Daddy was. She said "he's sleeping." I went in to check and sure enough he was completely asleep. Looks like they had been having a good time though before he fell asleep.

A visit from the Hatfields

This past week my dad, mom, Heather, and Buffy were able to come and visit us. It was so nice to have company during the days while Jared was at work. Mackayla of course LOVED having them here as well. We had a lot of fun and they helped me get things in order in both Mackayla's room and the new baby's room.

Mackayla has been wanting to pick out and put on her own clothes a lot lately. She was wondering if her cousin Jaden would like to go into the fashion business together when they get a little older.

Eating some popcorn with Grandpa and Grandma

While everyone was here we were able to go to Jared's summer work party. We had a wonderful, all expense paid evening at Seven Peaks water park.

Jared and I went out to a movie one night and Mackayla went out with her Grandparents and Heather. They discovered she loves to eat tacos from tacobell. She's been talking about the tacos ever since.

Only three years ago...

It was three years ago this week that Jared proposed to me. Amazing how time flies!

Now almost two kids later, I'm sure it was the best decision he ever made! (mine too!)

Speaking of the approaching second child, we are accepting any ideas for a name for this little boy. Please feel free to post a comment and give us some suggestions.
