Banana Wars

Oh he got me....

Being sneeky!!

McKinley thought she would pull a fast one on daddy and get him, but daddy was to quick for her.

Banana war zone.....Daddy and McKinley thought that bananas were for something other than eating. They had a great time on Sunday afternoon having banana wars. I think daddy won because after awhile McKinley decided she wanted to eat hers!

Okay..okay So, I know I always post dance pictures, but what can I say she is so stinkin' CUTE. Yesterday in dance class they had orange day. They got to play with orange paper pumpkins, orange scarfs, orange ribbons, and orange bean bags. McKinley really like the ribbons and she was really good at and twirling it around. I love watching her in class because I can tell she really is in her element and loves dancing (AND being the center of attention!)

Cutie pie....what more can I say. Torrie took these pictures of McKinley at Kangaroo Zoo. She just asked her to say cheese and this is what McKinley did. Why is it when I ask her to say cheese she just conveniently looks the other direction???

oh this bread is so delicious!

Family Fun.....Can't you tell how much fun McKinley is having...lol

Here ducky, ducky.....

Last Monday we decided to go and feed the ducks. We had some old bread and found a little pond a few miles from our home. When we got there we saw some ducks a little ways down in the pond. We tried to motion them to come over, but they would not come. But don't worry because McKinley enjoyed eating the bread. YUMMY. It was definitely an adventure. We will have to go again when it is a little warmer and we can actually find more ducks!

McKinley is Potty Trained......JUST KIDDING. We decided to buy McKinley a potty chair this last week. We let her decide between an Elmo chair and a Dora chair. Much to our surprise she picked Elmo. She has actually gone pee pee one time. The rest of the time she just loves sitting on the chair and using the toilet paper. We will probably wait a few for months to actually start potty training her actively. I think this will be good to get her use to the potty

Mckinley is absolutely loving her dance class. As soon as one song ends she says, "more more"! It is so funny to watch her because she is so much smaller than any of the other girls and boys, but she fits right in. She never stops running or dancing throughout the whole class. She is really good about following direction. It is fun to see McKinley leanring new things every day!

My new scrapbook page.....

I did it.....I cut all of my hair off. It was long enough that I will be able to donate it. Now I have to learn how to do short hair again!

They made a train in dance class today. In this picture you can see how much smaller McKinley is than all the other girls, but she sure is adorable! After they started the train McKinley cut off and started going the other direction. One girl was still connected to her....and the little girls face was priceless. She was wondering what was going on!

McKinley wanted to be front and center. She had to be right up next to the teacher.....

Another "in action" picture. As you all know McKinley does not sit still!

More Please........She really was asking for more!

These were the cute decorations at the tea party.

We were all sitting down and McKinley thought it was time to pray.

Mckinley was invited to tea party. She had so much fun. They colored pictures, made fans, ate cupcakes, and sipped hot chocolate in tea cups.

Rooting for our Favorite gymnastics team. (the guy taking the picture kind of cut Oliver's head off.)

Go UTES.....

She needed to squeeze a nap somewhere into this busy day.

Oh so cute!!

Mmmmmmmmmm........cookies........Delicious

Friday was a blast. It all started with McKinley and me making chocolate cookies for the neighbors. McKinley had a lot of fun pouring, stirring, watching the cookies bake, and especially eating the cookies. After baking Mckinley had fun playing with her counsins Brooke and James. Later on that afternoon we went and picked Oliver up from work. We then went to Discovery Gatevway where we all had a bundle of fun. That was not all though...... we then went to the U of U gymnastics meet. This was McKinley's first meet and she absolutely loved it. We were a couple sections over from the band and she just stood up and danced and clapped her hands to the music! She even loved cheering on the gymnasts! She looked so adorbale in her U of U cheerleading outfit!

Mckinley in ACTION. Today was Mckinley's First dance class. At first she was nervous, but as soon as she realized what they were doing she was off! McKinley as always loved to dance. Whenever I turn on music she is right along side me dancin!

BELLY BUTTON

So our little kinners is The belly button phase. If she does not have a onesie on she is always playing with her belly button. One night when I came home from dance Mckinley's onesie was undone and around the middle of her waist. I asked Oliver why her onesie was undone and he simply replied she wanted to play with her belly button. (I know this is a stange picture, but I wanted proof to show Mckinley one day!) =)

My little cheese ball. Got to love her.....I mean how can you not just love that SMILE!!

McKinley as an obession with my nylons. When I have them on she always has to be touching them or feeling them. I guess her obession got the best of her here!

Sleepy Girl!

This was suppose to be our family movie night. As you can see though Mckinley was sick of the movie and covered her little ears and went to sleep. I guess she was mad because we were not watching The Letter Factory!

Sledding Photos

Mckinley did not like going down with someone but she loved going down all by herself! As you can see by her big smile here!

Oliver Loved CRASHING!

Ryan and little Mckinners!

Sledding Photos! We went sledding on a little hill right behind our condo. The kids and the Adults LOVED IT!!

This Weekend we went to Wolf creek and had a blast! We went with Ryan, Tiffany, Kristina and Aaron. We played raquetball, went sledding, ate delicious food, and played games. We all had a lot of fun getting away on a little vacation!
