It's Wed morning right now and like last blog McKenna is still sleeping and Ada is quietly drifting to sleep in the bouncy chair. We have been super busy lately and have seldom had time to even sit down. Mark started installing the bamboo floor my dad bought for our Christmas gift in 05. The bathroom that he is installing it in looks pretty smashing. I feel like I could put some pins up and go bowling in there! :) You wouldn't know it's Marks first time installing hardwoods either, it's perfect!
Another fun thing that has happened is that McKenna has her 4th tooth growing finally! She officially has two top and two bottom teeth and is proudly munching and biting on everything in sight. She's getting a little bit better with her kisses and actually attempts not to use her teeth, but likes to utilize her new food disposal units everywhere else. She's officially grown through another stage of clothing as well which makes me so sad. I can't believe how fast everything is being outgrown! Soon I will have to yield to the inevitable and actually go shopping for her (I guess there is a plus to everything :)
She's in for another first next month which Mark and I are gearing up for....Her first airplane ride! Actually, I am not looking forward to bringing her on a plane. As much as I would like to imagine McKenna is able to sit still for 3-1/2 hours, I know that thought is much like the dream of winning the lottery, impossible. We are taking a trip to Fargo (yes as in North Dakota) to take part in my best friend Chasities wedding. Should be interesting to say the least. I am a little weary of people in Fargo I am not sure why, maybe because Steve Bushemi played such a creepy role in the movie Fargo, but you can be sure I will be on my toes the entire trip and if any of Chasities wedding party want to hold McKenna they will have to pass a complete FBI profile, DNA and warrant search.
That's all folks!
Until next write,
Jaime

Right now McKenna is asleep in her bed and Ada our new friend is asleep in the bouncy chair beneath my feet. It is turning out to be alot of fun around here 4 days a week when Ada comes to visit. McKenna has officially said her third word....It's Ada! The first two of course were Dada and Mama. She is getting very good at waving byebye now and claps when she thinks something is great! She gives the biggest kisses ever and gets a HUGE grin on her face likes she has just done you the biggest favor in the world by sharing her slobber! I can't believe she will be turning one year old in a few months....seems like she is doing something new every day now. It makes me so happy and sad at the same time. Well, like I said a moment ago her first birthday is arriving very soon and we are preparing ourselves for the biggest celebration this house has ever seen. We are planning on throwing a costume party on October 28th in McKenna's honor and already have our costumes at the ready. It's going to be a smorgasbord of delights!
The daycare is going well too! I think Ada is finally getting use to the crazy Beadnell ways and before you know it we will have her taking part in all of our bad habits (j/k Amy & Tyler). She is a little sweetheart and has moments when you just want to snuggle her and never stop! She is starting to giggle alot and it is so rewarding to get one out of her that she often gets annoyed with you when you just won't stop trying :) Well, before she wakes I'd better go. Until next time, J
