Hello again

You know... they say the world is a small place, and im sure we can all agree with that, but what if they said the Internet was a small place? That seems kinda wierd... right? Well, let me be the first to say that the cyber world is just about as small as the regular world! I have been out of highschool now for almost 5 years, (wow... I felt really old writting that!) and the last 5 years that I have been out of highschool I haven't had any contact with anyone I went to school with. Well yesterday I checked my e-mail to find a message from a girl I went to school with. OK... that doesn't seem wierd... I know, but she didn't have my e-mail address, and I didn't have hers. She just happened to be a member of the same mommie forum that I'm a member of! I posted that I had a new web page for little Makayla and as she read it she figured out it was me. I was really surprised to hear from her, and found out that she also has a daughter who I think is around 1 years old. She is such a cute little girl, who also has her own web page. You should check her out. http://www.diyosa.com/babya/ ( I might want to check with mommy and make sure its OK to put that link up there!)

As for us here in KY... we are doing great. We went to the mall today and stupid me forgot to bring the camera. I didn't think Makayla was going to wake up cause any time we go somewhere she sleeps the whole time. But she did wake up and you should have seen her eyes! I think shes getting to the point where she can see more than a foot in front of her face, and I think all the lights were really impressive to her. She wasn't awake for long after daddy picked her up, but it was cute while it lasted.

Here are some pictures of Makayla this morning. Usually she hates to be naked. As soon as she realizes you have taken her clothes off she starts throwing a fit. I guess she decided I was getting to know her to well and had to change things up. She laid there and was really happy for the longest. When I did go to put her clothes on, as you can see from the picture, she was not a happy baby and she made sure I knew that.

These are just random shots I took. That bear was one of the things me and Makayla woke up to Valentines morning after Duncan had left for work. I was a little confused about the "Our first Valentine" part because we were together last year, but later he explained that it was OUR first Valentine... as in the three of us. Its so funny how that bear is almost twice as big as Makayla.

And by the way... sorry the pictures are so small... im still trying to figure out how to get the size right, so bear with me!

Im trying this again!

OK... i'm trying a new way to post pictures. I was getting tired of putting each picture in a different post. I tried this earlier, and the pictures were HUGE... so im going to try to resize them and see how this works.

Heres Duncan and Makayla looking at eachother like the other one is crazy! I think they are both still trying to figure eachother out...

Well, im gonna try posting these two pictures and see how it turns out! I really hope this works. Even though I had to resize each of them by hand, it beats putting each of them in a seperate post.

Just look at me stretch! Posted by Hello

Ok... I know I told you guys I would talk about the labor next time I posted, but I didn't get the pictures from the hospital on my computer yet... so you'll have to wait a little longer. But these pictures are from today. I just can't seem to put the camera down. It seems like every time I do she does something really cute, and I have to grab it again!
Today was a great day, but one thing that no other mother ever explained to me was how much longer EVERYTHING takes when you have a baby. I knew getting ready to go somewhere was going to take longer, but I didn' t think time in actual places was going to take as long as it does. We went to a baby store today to look for some more books and everyone in there stopped us to say how cute she is. The lady that worked there was even calling people off their lunch breaks to come out and see her!!! All I could do was smile and think to myself "She is pretty cute if I may say so myself!" So I figured... "Hey i'm in a baby store, I have to expect to get a lot of attention here, with such a young baby." Next was the scrap booking store, which was the same thing, then Walmart! It took all day just to buy 6 things total from 3 stores. I guess its another adjustment I have to make as a mom.
