Winter ~ January/February

Wow, this year has been going bye very fast! McKayla is growing and developing so fast into such a great little girl. Although she will sometimes have her moments, she is probably one of the best little girls ever! It is amazing how fast she is learning things. She will imitate many things that mommy and daddy will say, she loves playing with kids from daycare and with her cousins, and she is starting to walk around on along furniture. She is so cute to watch as she walks along on the couch and then will stretch with one arm and move to her toys. I know that she will be walking and running in no time! :o) Here are some of her latest pictures from January and February.


McKayla bit her lip at daycare. We are trying to get a good picture, but she did not want to cooperate very much.



Daddy, McKayla, and Hurley hanging out in bed on a Saturday morning.

I am "1" now! She is trying to imitate mom by holding up her finger.

For Valentines day I tried to get McKayla to hold up the letters LOVE. She would cooperate at first for me, then she started to get sick of having to pose! She did a good job though!


"O" McKayla looking so cute!


"V" This is the good "V" picture that she is smiling in!


This is her pouty "V" face! I love this picture because it is so cute and funny at the same time!


"E" This was the best picture I could get for an "E".


Looking cute with my red flower!



The final result for daddy for Valentines Day!

On February 16th Mommy and Daddy had their poor little hearts drop. We got a call from daycare saying that McKayla had hurt her arm really bad at daycare. We took her into the emergency room and found out that she dislocated her left elbow. They were able to reduce it in the ER and they put her in a soft splint and sling for a couple of days. Even though she was hurting really bad, she still was a good sport throughout the whole thing! What a good little girl!


Mommy and me in the ER after the split was put on. Poor thing :o(


Back at home and after a long nap she is looking well and having fun cuddling and watching movies. She was such a good girl.


Playing with daddy with only one arm.


Playing with my toys!

On Friday we were able to take her cast off! We put her in the tub and she did really well. She started to use the arm and little and has been using it well ever sense!


Taking pictures with my puppy that I got from grandma and grandpa Drenth for Valentines!



Mommy and me!


The Drenth cousins! The newest addition is Dawson Drenth! He was born on January 8th and was adopted into the Bennett and Felicia Drenth's house! He has been such a blessing to the whole family! (Noah Bandstra, McKayla Drenth, Madelyn and Dawson Drenth)


All the cousins sitter with grandma and grandpa Drenth.

On the last day of February the weather finally started to get nice and we thought it was a heat wave at 38 degrees. So, we bundled McKayla up and took her for a little sled ride in the front yard. She didn't really like getting all bundled up, but she sure did look cute!



Our cute little snow kitten! :o)


Trying to have fun in the snow, but she wasn't sure what to think of it!

Mommy and me!

Daddy having fun pulling McKayla all over!
