McKinley Moments

Spring is here and we are enjoying this beautiful weather! McKinley got a new turtle sandbox and sandbox toys for this birthday. He loves scooping sand from one bucket to the other!We just fenced in our backyard to "contain" McKinley. He was not happy about it at first, but I think he is getting use to the idea. Trevor, however, loves it! Trevor is 8 years old and has never been able to run without a leash. He is in heaven! Here he is checking out McKinley and the sand!

The other day McKinley and I were upstairs. The next thing I knew, he was gone! I went downstairs to the living room....no McKinley. I walked into his room and this is what I found. He had taken the pillow from the couch, carried it into his room, changed DVD's and was watching a movie. When I walked into the room he looked up and said " Hi Mommy".

These are some of my favorite pictures. One afternoon our snack was a piece of chocolate cake. I was being silly, he was being silly and we were both laughing so hard! Can you tell we were having a good time!?!?







(Thanks Uncle E for the cake.....we had a great time eating it! It was very yummy!)

Elephants, Tigers and Clowns!


We took McKinley to the circus today! He got a new
t-shirt and ate LOTS and LOTS of cotton candy! He did pretty good, but he really sat still and watched the acrobats. I hope he wasn't getting any ideas!






It is hard to see in these pictures, but his face is covered in cotton candy residue!













McKinley sat in his seat for a while, but he loved standing at the gate and waving to the clowns.

Our Little Artist

Since McKinley's 2nd Birthday is almost here, Andy and I decided that it was time to take away the rabbits and give McKinley a big boy room! We looked for some pictures to put in his room, but could not find what we were looking for. We decided that we had a great little artist in the house, so we let McKinley paint his pictures for his room! He had a lot of fun! His room is almost finished so check back to see his "master pieces" in his new big boy room!

Curious McKinley

A Day in the life of Curious McKinley!
McKinley is "curious" about closets and doors!





McKinley is "curious" about Trevor's crate

McKinley is "curious" about his daddy's shoes!



McKinley is especially "curious" about his new bubble machine!



It's tough being a "curious" little boy!

Christmas 2006

What an exciting Christmas! We woke up very early this morning to see what Santa had left and to open presents.
Here is McKinley singing us a song (Thanks Aunt TT and Uncle Pat)
McKinley loves to color and Santa brought him some new coloring books and paint!

McKinley really liked opening presents this year. All week he would get presents out from under the tree and say "Mine Mommy?"

The big gift from Santa was the John Deere Gator. It was a big hit!
