Accomplishments and fun things in no particular order

(over the past three months)

• Has 6 teeth in all (4 top, 2 bottom).
• Can FINALLY go from tummy/hands and knees to sitting.
• *As of Wed. the 28th, she can CRAWL--Forward!! (Full on, hands and knees, crawling!)
• She also scoots on her bum, spins around on her bum, rolls, scoots backwards on tummy.
• Went through a phase where she would clap after "amen" in prayers.
• Sneezes 4 or 5 times (or more) in a row, just like her daddy.
• Loves to bang things together to make noise and bangs her head against things.
• Still dances to ANY and EVERYthing with a beat (including the dishwasher)!
• Still sleeps 10-12 hours at night with two 1.5-2 hour naps (unless sick or teething).
• We think she can say a few words: mama, what, diaper ("baper"), woo woo (for a doggy sound) and she can sign "daddy."
• Can drink from a straw, give "five", blow kisses, turn pages in books, click her tongue, and do "so big" on command.
• Loves peek-a-boo, baby einstein, being outside, playing with people's eyes/eyelashes.
• Very good at using her thumb and pointer finger together.
• Likes to suck on the soapy wash cloth in the bath.
• Understands and responds to, "Can I have it, please?"
• Constantly turns around in shopping carts and restaurant high chairs.
• Got the first dose of her flu and swine flu shots.
• I've started to wean her...
• Copycats a lot and also "speaks" in her own language.
• Can point to a few body parts: eyes, ears, belly.
• Strokes her blanket on her hands and face to relax herself.
• Rolls her eyes to look around (copy cats this as well).

So yeah... We love our little girl and can't get enough of her!

Sorry, I'm so long winded on these posts. It's mostly for posterity's sake. :)

Here's a fun video of McKenna "reading." And if you listen carefully, it sounds like she's saying, "What is it?"
