Mckenzie turns 2!!

Mckenzie was very happy with the cake and ice cream part of the party. The only downside to her birthday was a very red runny nose.
Mom and Dad gave Mckenzie books (of course hello I am her mom) and a cool trycicle. She was more interested in the trycicle until we found the animal books.

Check out the grin for the trike!


Grandma Roundy gave Mckenzie "Winny Pooh" cards a coloring book, and some cool crayons! They have been the hit of the past few days.

Grandma Sullivan put all her presents into one giant bag, it was too funny and cute to watch Mckenzie fall into the bag and dig for her presents. Thanks grandma for the movies and the clothes and the toys.




Mom and Mckenzie at the start of the party. I would love to say that Mckenzie was so excited to be getting bigger, but she didn't really have any idea what was going on for most of the day. The first time she showed any excitement was when dad came home from the store with a balloon. You would have thought that he hung the moon. I am not sure that we needed to even have a party after that she was perfectly happy with the balloon. (oh well she got into the presents and was happy with them also.)
We had one other very big accomplishment..... on Friday December 1, 2006, Mckenzie went poop in the potty! She is really into sitting on the potty but doesn't really have a clue what she is supposed to do. It's just cool cuz big sister Aby sits on the potty. Needless to say I was very happy, and so was dad (we called him at work to let him know what happened.) There hasn't been a repeat performance yet, but I am hopeful to have her potty trained before the new baby comes in March.

We put up our christmas tree after Thanksgiving this year, Ryan had asked me to do a formal red tree instead of my usual mult-color tree. I said that I would as long as he helped with the lights (he must have really wanted the tree to be red because he did a lot to help with the lights.) It turned out great, Mckenzie and Aby had a hard time waiting until the lights were on to help with the ornaments, but they managed. When it was time to hang up the ornaments they were all energy even if it was 11:00 pm at night.
