Well, pretty much everyone thinks McKinley looks like her Daddy. I have only gotten one vote and that was from a stranger who had never met Andy before. Well, last night, I was convinced too! Andy was reading to McKinley and as they were reading, I looked at both their expressions and they looked exactly the same. It was the eyebrows. I had to take a picture.
You have to click on the picture to get to really see how much it looks like Andy.

Practice Rolling Over June 29, 2009
For the past month, we do this game with McKinley where we help her practice rolling over. We lay out a blanket and roll her from one end to the other and then back. We help her get started and then have her finish the roll if she can. She has gotten much stronger and seems to like it. When I lay her down and say “roll over” (in a high pitched voice of course), she smiles. Andy did this with her yesterday and really made her work. He would get her halfway over – on her side – and then just support her there and try to get her to move and get the rest of the way over. She did really well and we got some really cute pictures during it.
Tummy Time June 29, 2009
At 3 months, 3 weeks old, McKinley is getting stronger at holding her head up, especially during tummy time. Now, I have been laying her on her tummy on her play mat. There are so many interesting things and colors, she will stay there longer than just on a regular blanket. Sometimes she looks at the things hanging down and sometimes the pictures on the mat catch her eye. When I look at these pictures, she looks so big. Oh and of course there is always drool involved when she sees something that she wants to put in her mouth:)
Happy First Father’s Day June 29, 2009
Last Sunday we got to celebrate Andy’s first Father’s Day. We went to church and Andy got to stand up when they asked all the dads to stand. Everyone clapped and I was so proud, I just wanted to shout! Andy was so proud carrying McKinley around church. We got to hang out as a family after he got off. McKinley had made him a card (with Mommy’s help). It was so cute because when I read it to her before we gave it to her Daddy, as I was reading, she smiled and giggled. We had a wonderful time and are so blessed to have Andy as a Daddy.
