Growing up so fast.

Already, we have done many things. One thing we decided, was to not limit what we do because we have a baby. Some people want a break, some want a family. For the time being, we do it all as a family. We are going to Mexico in January, so, we thought we'd get some practice swimming.

Likewise, get ready to have those comebacks for the little guys on the beach eyeing her up.


Mackenzie actually has a couple of potential boyfriends, James Kowalewski, who is 10 months older.

And Colby Bennett, who has only got 4 months on her.


Not to mention Riley next door, who has 6 months on her, picture to come, and Owen, or is it Nolan, up the street, who Mackenzie has 2 months on. Regardless, I'll really start to worry in about 15 years. For some reason, she thinks she's that age already.

Happy Birthday!...well, sort of...

Every day in the first year, I find you are always looking for a reason to celebrate. So, on the eve of her 7 month birthday, I thought it would be fitting to make another post. Alot has happened, and it seems to happen faster. Mackenize is now a master of her hands and can use her soother at will. As you can see, we have started on solid food now...
most of it gets in her mouth.

We had some company recently, Aunt Clara from down home.

For those of you not familiar with the term 'down home', that translates to Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia. Danielle's parents are from there. Above and below is her dad with Aunt Clara

and her mother, with Mackenzie, otherwise known as Nana, and Papa.

Speak of the devil, guess who just showed up :) Gotta run.
