Makenna is 2 Months!

Makenna just turned 2 months! She is growing so fast:

She weighs 12 lbs 4 oz (75-90th percentile)
She is 22 1/2 inches long (50th percentile)

Here are some of my favorite recent pictures of her:
Alli loves her new sister so much. Whenever she hears her cry she tells me and then she runs to talk to her and give her kisses. I can't tell you how many times I've heard her say "It's okay Kenna, mommy's going to get you." If I'm busy and trying to finish something up I can just tell Alli to go talk to Makenna for a minute and that will usually calm Makenna down. I come to get her and she's smiling at Alli. Love it!

Makenna's Blessing

On April 11th Makenna was given a name and a blessing by her daddy at church. It was a special day and we were blessed to have family there to see her. She was a little fussy before her blessing, but her Aunt Courtney (the baby whisperer) was able to get her to sleep, so she slept through it! She was beautiful in her long, white dress! We love our baby Makenna so much!

My parents were there to see her and to help with the twins (thanks!)

Easter

Nick and Alli had the privilege of participating in three Easter egg hunts this year! Since candy was involved, naturally, they loved the idea. They just need to work on going a little faster - they tried to open the eggs and get the candy every time they found an egg. The first egg hunt was at the church, the second was at a very windy park with the Twin's club, and the third was on Easter at Lindsey's 2nd birthday party!Lindsey's birthday was a few days before Easter, but we celebrated it on Easter. Courtney made some amazing Easter cupcakes. They kids were a little confused about how to eat them, but it didn't take too long for them to figure it out!
