McDonald's anyone?


Ok, it's true. We give our child McDonald's every once in a while. Because seriously, could you tell that sweet little face that she can't have delicious chicken nuggets and french fries? I can't. But just so you know, we usually get Wendy's because we feel like they are a tad bit healthier. But this day she was sharing 100% greasy chicken nuggets and fries with daddy. : )

What we've been up to

Mya had her first experience with yogurt all by herself. She doesn't look too bad, does she? She felt so big playing in it and trying to pick it up, both with a spoon and with her hands. Hilarious!Here's my handsome new nephew with his cute little scrunchy face! Perry Cecil Stevenson III, welcome to the world!
My sweet niece just turned 10! I can't believe it. She's such a good girl! Dorian wasn't feeling his best this day, which explains his little face in this picture. I love them bunches!
Mya and I got to hang out with our BFF's Lindsey and Cami. (And Adam was there too. He can be out BFF too!) Cami and Mya were kissing in this picture, but it happened so fast my dad couldn't get the pic. You'll just have to trust me that it was adorable!
Last but not least, sweet Miss M hanging out on the dog food container. She loves to push it around my parent's kitchen and this day she decided to take a rest from all her pushing and just sat down on top of it. She is so creative, right? Or silly, whichever word you choose!
That's all for now! More later!

A little late...

We have been busy, which is why these pictures are a little late in getting up. Anyway, last weekend was so much fun for us because we got to hang out with Aunt Sissy and cousins Camdyn and Silas. We had such a fun time spending time with them. I was worried we'd never see them since they moved to KC. Anyway, Mya wore her K-State stuff even though we lost to KU. We said "Go Cats!" anyway!
The weekend before that I got to see one of my bestest friends, Tracy! I haven't seen her in three years and she finally got to meet Mya. We went to a baby shower together and got to hang out. It was wonderful. Tracy is one of the sweetest, most thoughtful people I know! So glad we got to see each other! I miss you!
I just had to include a cute picture of Mya playing in the snow for the first time. We have a hill in our backyard and Daddy had to hold her hand for a while so she wouldn't go tumbling down it, but for the most part, she played all by herself, falling and laughing and having a great time! She didn't want to go inside, so we played on our patio for about 20 minutes after we had already spent forever outside already. Even now, when we're outside for even a little while, she wants down and wants to play. I love that she loves to be outdoors.
Ok, I love these next pictures. Camdyn loves to take pictures and so I let her take some pictures for a while with our camera and she actually takes some pretty good ones. She's adorable! Anywa, Me, Dan, and Mya went to visit my Grandma one weekend in Excelsior Springs, so of course we had to stop and see Matt and Sarah and the fam while we were sort of passing through. We got to see their new house and play Wii and eat dinner and it was such a great time. Me and Camdyn played bowling on the Wii and she taught me some Wii bowling techniques! We had a blast!
Me and little Miss Camdyn hugging it up! Love this girl. I promise I took pictures of Silas too, him and Mya were just always on the move that I didn't get any good ones. Maybe next time, right?

Well, Dan and Mya and I are busy and loving it. We've really noticed how much Mya loves her babysitter, Jamie, lately and we are so glad. She loves being over there and Jamie does such a great job with her. She really is a huge blessing for us!
Mya is also really starting to talk more and more, which is so much fun. She tries to say just about everything we do, but of course, it usually doesn't come out like we say it. But at least she's trying. She says daddy, kitty, uh-oh, moo, shoes, toes, socks, and she even said thank you once. She's such a smart girl. Oh, where has the time gone? My sweet baby is growing up. But I am loving it!
