Makena's month has been full of new things. Although, she can't say a lot of words yet, she certainly knows what a lot of things are. She now recognizes and can point to elbow, knee, arm, and leg. We have been reading her bible every night and she knows which book to get. I may have mentioned in her 16 month update that she would check (pat) her diaper when she is went. She is now pretty consistant and will go get a diaper for me to change her. She actually tries to change herself occasionally. As for adventure, she is climbing more and negotiating steps. She also has figured out the dog door goes outside. It hasn't become a problem that she escapes but I suspect that will come.
Words:
Diaper - Until today diaper was pronounced "die". Today it became "die-ter".
Daddy - Until earlier this week has been "Da-da". Now she says "my da-da".
Momma - Still "ma-ma"
Riggins - Uses that more and more, "ninins"
Yellow - new word recently.
Cracker - "Ca-car". She can be very demanding with her "more" signing and the word cracker. Sometimes I think she is going to hurt her hand she is signning so hard.
Night Night - She has started talking about "nite nite" and is quick to shake her head "no" if I suggest it at the wrong time.
I am sure there are more but these are the ones that come to mind.
Motor Skills:
- She can climb in and out of her baby's crib.
- She can also put her shoes on...sometimes she gets them on the right feet sometimes not, but she can take them off and put them on.
- She can almost get her shorts on but she can definitely get them off.
Eating:
- Continues to do very well with fork and spoon.
- She also learned how to drink the milk out of her cereal bowl this month.
- Eats pretty well out of a bowl or off a plate but still needs to be monitored to make sure it doesn't end up on the floor.
- She is a little bit picky these days but I am trying to make sure she isn't getting the same thing every day and try new things. She seems to surprise me at every meal. Things I think she will eat, she doesn't and vice versa.
Sleeping:
- Only one nap, 2 hour nap.
- 10 or so hours at night.
She looks taller to me but I haven't messured her. Since walking she looks a lot thinner. However, I think she is going to be blessed with the Callaway thighs. I need to get weight and height.

"Makena, can Daddy please watch football?"
"I am the Princess of the Oaks"
Nap time with Daddy
26 Weeks Update
- Contractions are still happening but don't happen every day. Seem to happen when I have done too much or haven't had enough water.
- Getting ready for the shower in a few weeks. So very thankful for my PC friends for hosting.
- Had some lower back pain but nothing a little rest doesn't cure.
- We go in for the glucose test tomorrow to test for gestational diabetes. It was not an issue with Makena so hopefully it will be good this time too.
Below shows me prego with Makena at about the same time.
