The Newly Weds

Landon and Kristi met in Febuary of 2011. Within a month of dating they knew they wanted a future with each other. They were married on July 20, 2011. Upon meeting each other they wondered if fairy tales really do come true? Their story is a modern day fairy tale of two people who gave up looking for their happily ever after and though its a lot later in life for both of them, a miracle happened and the two of them met, fell in love and....and are working on the happily ever after part.

Six month Doctor visit

McKenna has been kind of sick for two weeks now. It's been a tiny cold but then everyone got the flu and by her 6 month Dr. visit she had a bit of the flu herself.

Even being sick McKenna is very smiley and giggles. In this picture she is sick, you can see it in her eyes, but not sick enough to not be playing and smiling.

The Dr. Tested McKennas cognitive development, weighed and measured her and gave her some shots and some rx for her flu. She also get to try Advil now, we are excited about that!

The night after we went to the dr. McKennas fever spiked and so the next morning Landon went to fill her rx but no one had tamiflu. He spent five hours trying to find it for her and came home successful!

This was our first time ever giving McKenna antibiotics. We really believe that her never being on medications before now has aided in her rapid brain development and her happiness. She rarely gets sick and she is always happy. But she really needed this tamiflu.

The results of the Doc was that she is now a little over 25 inches long and weighs 15.5 lbs. The Docs worry is that McKennas brain development is much faster than her physical development. So, he said we will have to keep a close eye on her bc she will do things that she "thinks" she can do but is physically not ready for. Lol we already see that. She gets very inquisitive to the point where she will pull, dive or snatch something or after something before you can even blink. Then she will investigate thoroughly before she decides to play with it or put it in her mouth. Lol

McKenna passed the 6th month tests, then the nine month tests and most of the 12 month tests. Lol oh dear!!!! We have a smarty on board! Landon keeps telling her: "slow down honey, you don't need to grow up so fast and be so smart, you have the looks, so you don't need the brains."

We love our little girl and are so proud of her. We hope she gets feeling better than ever very soon!!!!
