FUN,FUN, AND MORE FUN!!!

So I think I have come to realize with the summer time I am going to have to make a conscious effort to make time for down time. It seems like every week even if I don't start out with plans I end up going out everyday. This week on Tuesday I had my first play group at one of the moms house. It was a lot of fun and I think good for Mackenzie to get out and play with some other kids. Most of the kids ranged from a yr to 2 yrs old but there was one baby girl a month older than Kenzie and a couple of moms expecting any day. On Wednesday I went to a friends house and she has a little boy about a yr in a half old. So while they enjoyed some play time. We got to visit and we made jewelry. That is definitely not on my list of things to do but I thing being a mom is bringing some of these things out in me. I actually enjoyed doing it and look forward to doing it again. Thursday we were suppose to go to the Britanical gardens of Norfolk with my mom and some other people and about half way there my car over heated so that ended that trip. On Friday I went to my every other week moms group where I had the pleasure of hearing my mom speak about relationships. So on top of having a busy week it was even longer for MacKenzie. I think it might have something to do with teething. She has two teeth coming through on her top gums. All of last week she was sleeping 7 to 7 eating then going back down til 9 or so. This week she took a nap on Monday and has refused to take a nap the rest of the days. She literally only slept for about 20 mins each day. Today she has done a little better but of course she fought me so much and now she is asleep and I am going to have to wake her up bc it is getting to be dinner time.
I wonder if she will be walking soon. She spends more time on her feet then she does crawling. anything that she can use to pull herself up she will. She will be 9mo on the 12th which to me is crazy. On May 23rd she is being dedicated and on the same day my dad who is currently the executive pastor at our church will be speaking that day and doing the dedications so I am really excited about that. MacKenzie over all is a very happy baby with a great appetite. So far I have fed her banana's, sweet potatoes, corn, green beans, chicken, fruit, yogut, cottage cheese and the list goes on. Of those things yogurt and cottage cheese are the two things that didn't go well. I think she is maybe lactose intolerant and the yogurt just upset her stomach all day long. We have a 5k we are suppose to be involved in tomorrow and the proceeds are going to the Nicaragua orphans.
