baby girl's first easter

I say this like it is a big deal.

Cause it is.

Right?

Every "baby's first" is a big deal?

Kemry didn't do much...

 

{Seriously. Those are the only pictures I am putting on here of her!}

...but Mady did.

 

And Tyrel was practically in heaven, too.

And that was our Easter.

The End.

what i am thinking about this sunday {3}

I am so thankful for the unconditional love of my Savior and for the sacrifice He made for me.

And you.

I hope everyone has a great Easter!

happy threemonthday, kemster!

My little baby is three months old today.

She gets more precious every single day.

I still can't believe that I have little girl.
I never get sick of thinking about that!

Recent Developments:
-The car seat is the ultimate torture device, no matter how hard we try to make it "fun" for her.
-She lights up when she sees her parents {and they love it most definitely}, and she follows us with her eyes as we walk around the room.
-She loves to gnaw on her left hand. It was cute, but now she has little raw spots on her fingers.
-She eats like nobody's business. And toots like it, too. Sometimes I think she should have been a boy.
-She almost prefers her bottle cold rather than warm.
-She is starting to reach and grab things. She also kicks and scoots around so she is never in the same position you leave her in.
-She loves to hear herself scream and coo.
-She loves to sit up, whether it is in her Bumbo or on our laps.
-She is getting so close to rolling over...she does it from front to back every once in a while.
-She is growing up waaaaaay too fast for my liking.

kemry divorces her cowhunk

Remember when Kemry had a crush on the little cow that hangs from her swing?

Yeah, well, they must have had a falling-out or something.

She has moved on.

And this time, she is obsessed with a cute little bear-snugglie-blanket that Lyle and Melissa got for her while she was in the NICU.

She gets all in a tizzy when we give it to her and loves to shove as much of it in her mouth as she can.

Ain't this cuteness just a kick in the pants, McGee?

I think so.

mady and kemry conquer the pool {or rather, a post with 21 pictures of baby-swimsuit-goodness}

...and by conquer, I mean not really.

...and by pool, I mean hot tub...that was bath temperature.

Kemry and I took a short trip to Twin Falls with Tyrel's mom, grandma, and sister {with her little one, too, of course!}.

Despite the grouchy babies and the icky weather, we had a blast.

The highlight {of course} was the pool.

While Mady  had experienced the pool before, it was little Kemry's first time.

Aaaaaaand she was pretty placid.

But I guess that is better than her screaming.

Mady was so excited to get to the pool all day long but was a little scared when she actually got in.

Talk about one cute little death-grip.

 

awesome.

the correct way to eat an oreo

Yes.

There is only one correct way to eat Oreos.

Thanks to Amy Worthington, Tyrel and I were informed of our incorrect dipping and munching.

Here, my friends, is the correct way to eat an Oreo.

{Today, Golden Oreos sounded just a little more scrumptious than regular Oreos.}

1. Place Oreo on a fork.

 

2. Dip Oreo completely into a cup of milk {preferable Reed's Whole Milk...mmmmm}.

 

3. Wait until all of the bubbles stop coming from the Oreo.

 3. Eat.

 Thanks, hottie hubby.

 What does this method solve?

-Milk/soggy cookie on fingers

-Dropping cookie in milk {and even if it does fall in, you can fork it out}

-Multiple dippings to soak whole cookie...you can eat it in one bite.

-Half-soaked/half-crunch cookie...the bubbles tell you when it is done

Seriously. I will never eat Oreos the same.

And neither will some of our friends.

And, as for this little one...

...she can't wait to eat Oreos on forks, too.
