June Happenings

June has been full of exciting adventures for us and the month has flown by! We started out celebrating my birthday. Matt took me and McKay on a picnic to the Manti Temple and we enjoyed a nice relaxing day. The next week we celebrated our two year wedding anniversary. We left McKay with Grandma and enjoyed a night out for the first time since McKay was born. (I only called home a few times to check up on him.) My sister flew in for a week from Indiana and we spent a lot of time this past week with her and her girls. From the zoo to baseball games, McKay was great through it all! This past weekend we blessed McKay and celebrated Matt's birthday. It is so nice to have so much family close that we can share these special times with. McKay is starting to sleep a little better every night, so I am starting to be much more pleasant to be around! Matt continues to work full-time and run the house so I can take care of the baby- Matt is such a great husband and takes care of us so well. McKay is as spoiled as ever and loves to be the center of attention- he cries if no one is staring at him! Here are a few pictures of our adventures this past month. I will try to get better at posting more often!

Our Manti Temple Saturday Picnic- the whole way down it rained and was ugly, but once we got there, the clouds moved out and it was a beautiful afternoon. Our only problem was with mosquitos!

Daddy and McKay at the Orem Owlz Baseball game. McKay loved the game!

Our little family at McKay's Baby Blessing. He was blessed in the same outfit Matt wore for his blessing. It looked really cute on him.

My sister Elise and her girls at McKay's blessing. It was so fun to spend time with them this week before they head back to Indiana.

Our happy boy at his first baseball game!

Fun Times


A picture is worth a thousand words...

Our little McKay is growing right up. He is over a month old now and is getting close to 10 lbs. I finally broke down and let Matt give him a haircut about two weeks ago and he could use another one already! He is slowly getting his days and nights figured out and we hope it continues to get better. I am excited to finally have nice spring weather and McKay and I enjoy our afternoon walks every day. Matt is enjoying his job and spends his off-time playing with McKay and working out in the yard.

McKay loves his wiggle time. He tries so hard to move around. The other day I layed him in his crib long ways and when I came back he had turned and was stuck!


Here he is trying to push himself up and crawl.

Cute Baby...

Wow- it is amazing how much time and work a baby demands! I have been meaning to put up new pictures for a week now, but every time I try either McKay wants attention or I take advantage of the quiet time to take a nap! We are doing really good though thanks to the help of McKay's grandmas who tend, cook, and clean for me- Thanks I really appreciate the help. Matt is wrapping up the Baseball season and has enjoyed coaching this year. McKay is changing so much every day. He is getting so much more alert and starting to get chubby. He loves to wiggle and go for walks. Here are some pictures to enjoy.


My sister Elise made these cute letters for us. Thanks Elise!

Reverant McKay- folding his arms while sleeping. (I don't know why this is upside down- sorry)

Wiggling and laughing with his Daddy.

Thinking really hard...

Talking on the phone with his cousin Kenzie :-)

Family pictures in the blossoms thanks to our personal photographer--Katelyn.

He is growing right up- look how tall he is getting!

McKay Matthew Wright

Introducing the newest member to the Wright Family...

McKay Matthew Wright
Born on Friday April 24, 2009
6 lbs. 9 oz.
18 1/2 inches long
Lots of dark brown long hair- Grandpa Rowley is threatening to cut it because it is so long in the back!

We are all doing great (minus a little low on sleep) and are excited he is finally here. McKay is a great baby and is enjoying all the visitors who hold him constantly. Matt & I are going to be in trouble because he only likes to sleep when he is being held! Here are a few of the hundreds of pictures we have taken. Enjoy!

Cuddle time with Mommy


Matt has been such a great help. He is such a great husband and Dad.


Just finishing getting checked in the nursery


He really doesn't like getting his picture taken. The flash is bright and the shutter sound kind of scares him...
