McKalie is crawling....forwards!!!

McKalie has been crawling for some time now, but was only going backwards. She could also scoot around and roll to wherever she wanted to go. When daddy dropped her off at school on Wednesday one of the other little girls was playing with a toy that McKalie obviously wanted. When the little girl dropped it, McKalie took off going forwards! Daddy was so excited to witness it, and of course mommy was a little upset that she missed it. We have been bribing her since then with our phones and other electronic devices that she likes to get her to crawl. So from Wednesday until now, she has mastered the task and is all over the place. The video attached is from early this morning. I should have taken another one of her this evening at her faster pace, but I didn't get around to it. She's also pulling herself up on things and getting into just about EVERYTHING! Mommy wanted her to crawl so bad, now she's second guessing that thought!

Thanksgiving

Hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving! We are so thankful for each and every one of our family and friends. Thanksgiving was a little different this year without mom. We didn't make it up to D.C. this year, hopefully next year we will all be able to go. We had lunch at Jason & Mandi's and then went over to my aunt and uncle's house on my dad's side of the family. McKalie had sweet potatoe casserole and mashed potatoes. She loved them both! Here are some pics of her in her turkey day shirt and her indian headband that she made at school. Love to you all!
