Everyday there is something new

I can not believe how fast time flies. MacKenzie is now 8 1/2 months old and everyday there is something new, a new adveture. Today she is pulling herself up onto things and trying to stand up in her crib. She is not full out crawling yet, but she tries out a stide or two here and there. She still does the tummy crawl, and trust me she is quick!!! The animals are not safe anymore. She has her two new teeth that still bother her. They like to take a trip back into the gums now and then, luckly they don't go right back in. She loves to eat!! So far her favorait food is strawberrys and well anything that is sweet. I ried to make her a turkey stew, and she was not too impressed with it, I taisted it and it was good as far as I thought, but she prefures the store bought Hinez food. (I have a complex from this) She loves feeding herself, there for Puffed Rice cerial has become a staple. I started to blow on it to make it fly towards her, she cought on to that a little to quickly, and started to blow on it too...all over the floor.

Scott has been busy busy since we came back from our trip. He tries so hard to get home in time to say good night to his lil' girl, but most of the time misses the opportunity. However, an early night meens an early morning, and they get a short time to spend together before he is out the door once again.

I am keeping pretty busy myself. There was a time in my life that finishing highschool was not a goal, and anyone who told me that going back when you are older is hard, well i was a teenager, i knew everything!! LOL So yes, I am doing it, I am working towards getting my high school diploma. With self disaplin and organization not being a strong point of mine...well, it has it's trial and errors. And no I am not marked on my spelling, so it is never to improve. I as well have been helping my sister Jennifer out with driving her kids from place to place. She runs a day home out of her place and there for is not able to take her children to things like preschool and skating. Don't get me wrong, I love doing these things for her, but i find myself volunteering for things like Pre-Can group organizer...hmmm still not too sure what that is yet, and because I was the one who ended up at that meating Jennifer is signed up to be the dressing room cordinator...not too sure what that is eather butI am sure she'll do a great job. The kids love being in Skating and that is all that matters to me.

Right now at this very moment my lil' MacKenzie is napping, there for I am off and running to enjoy a little quiet time and spinich dip.
