Spring...Almost!

It is almost spring!  I know I am a plant nerd, but this little crocus made my day!  He is so happy and yellow.  And he had to push through snow and frozen soil just to bloom...doesn't it just make you happy?Spring is almost here!

McKay and I took advantage of this spring-like day and went for a walk and then came home and McKay discovered dirt and grass.  He loves to be outside (I think he kind of comes by that naturally...) and we had a blast poking the grass and rubbing dirt in our fingers.  It was quite the adventure.  I can't wait for the good weather to come and stay!

Ready, Set, WALK!

McKay is officially walking!  For the past few weeks he has been getting closer and closer and finally last night he did it.  He is still faster at crawling, for now...  I have the cutest video but I don't know how to put it on, so you get a picture. 

Off he goes!

When I grow up...

When I grow up I am going to be...

A Football Coach!
As we watched the Super Bowl, Mckay crawled right up to the TV and pointed and told those Colts what to do.  He yelled when they made mistakes and he even cried at the end when they lost- no joke!  It was the cutest thing to watch.  Here he is telling them they need to get a first down (notice the finger telling them where to go- I think he has watched too many games with his Daddy, what do you think?).

A mountain climber! 

If McKay can't quite reach what he wants to grab, he finds something to step on so he can climb up to where he wants to go.  He has already mastered the stairs and has discovered if he stands on his tippy toes he can pull things off the table.  Here he is standing on his books to destroy my bookcase.

A Baker!

McKay loves to play Pat-a-Cake and sometimes he really gets into it- here he is "Throwing it in the Pan"!

A Happy Boy!
No matter what he becomes when he grows up, he will be happy!  McKay loves to smile and laugh and is such a blessing in our lives.
