Sundays & McKenna's first church service

We love weekend mornings in this house!  McKenna comes to bed and hangs out for a couple hours with both Mommy and Daddy!

McKenna is smiling on a regular basis, and the feeling that I get is overwhelming!! I cannot think of a single better thing in the entire world than witnessing your baby's first smiles, intentional ones at that.


Kevin was the first one to figure out how to make smiles on demand.... I caught the tail end of this smile session, so the smiles are waning. But her face is priceless nonetheless.

 






Daddies are always silly like that.

McKenna went to church for the first time this week!!


McKenna and Daddy sharing some smiles before getting ready for church.

Unfortunately her late breakfast coincided with the very beginning of the service... we literally had to go out to the car at 10:01!  And what a fiasco.  We just got a new car, and I had NO CLUE how to turn it on!! I was sweating my ass off, pressing buttons, and literally almost brought to tears. After 10 minutes of that, McKenna nursed for a few minutes and decided she wasn't in the mood.. I don't blame her.  I knew that would rear its ugly head eventually. Then she pooped so I had to change her on the tailgate, making me sweat even more!  So after all of that fun, we sat back in the pew and within 20 seconds she started whining. Ugh.  Luckily our church has a Cry Room, a "soundproof" windowed room in the back where you can watch and listen to the service without disturbing the congregation.  McKenna and I spend the rest of the service there.  I'm still glad we took her to her first church service!

Daddy picked out her dress...

 
And McKenna and I got our first picture together where I'm actually in some makeup and something other than PJs.
 
Have I mentioned that McKenna's favorite place in the whole world is her changing table? 
 
 
We spend more time dancing, kicking, smiling, and making faces there than anywhere else in the house.  I'm considering buying another changing table to put in her playmat :-P  But she did spend a little time in her Sunday Best doing tummy time!
 

 
Any chance I can get to put her on her tummy without her getting upset I'll take!
