12 Months Old!!

Happy 1st Birthday McKinley Brooke!


About McKinley:
She isn't walking yet.  She isn't even pulling up.  She is just content to crawl around and let her servants (AKA Brycen & Leah) get her what she wants.  I can't say that I mind.  It's much easier to keep tabs on a crawling baby than a walking one. :-)

She only has two teeth

Says: no no, uh oh, bye bye, night night, momma, dadda, hi and shakes her head yes

Her favorite foods are yogurt, pretzels and puffs

She always carries a kleenex or baby wipe wadded in a ball in her hand.  She even sleeps with it.  It's her mini security blanket.

She is a screamer, especially when food is involved.  If we aren't feeding her fast enough, she screams.  If we take something away from her, she screams.  If she's happy, she screams.  If she wants us to pay attention to her, she screams.  We've never had a screamer before and it can get interesting especially at church.  I think my ears are permanently damaged from her deafening scream.

She is very good at imitating us.  She can mimic almost everything we do especially facial expressions.  Her favorite thing to do right now is fold her arms and bow her head when we say a prayer.  It is so adorable and she thinks she is so funny.

She still goes to physical therapy for her torticollis.  Her head looks awesome and you can hardly tell she had a flat spot.  Her torticollis is nearly gone too.  They just want her to walk before we can be discharged.

She loves her brother and sister so much.  They are her favorite people and can always make her smile.

She is the sweetest most easy going baby and we love her so much!
