Makenna Birthday

Our little Makenna is turning two! She has all of a sudden grown out of the baby toddler stage and is suddenly a little girl! We can't believe it. Makenna is quite the little girl. She is the cutest thing on the planet and so seems to find herself getting just about anything she wants. She looks up at you with those big blue eyes and you can't help but melt. She loves her big sister Kaylee and follows her around everywhere. It is fun to see them actually playing together and being little friends now. Makenna is definitely a girly girl. She loves everything PINK, makeup and lipgloss, painting her nails, dressing up, and playing with her doll. We love her so much!





We were heading to D.C. for a couple months with Dan's work so we decided to throw Makenna's birthday party a little early before we left. She was very excited for her birthday- having no idea that it wasn't exactly the day!




The girls went swimming earlier in the day and were so excited for the party. Poor Makenna missed her nap and so during dinner couldn't hold her little eyes open any longer. We decided to let her sleep for a bit before presents!


Makenna was all about the opening of the presents this year. She loves BLues Clues and so got some blues clues books, movies, and a big BLues Clues stuffed animal. Nana and Papa got her the fun slide and the awesome little tykes car. She could not wait to get that put together. I don't think Kaylee could either! Mom and Dad were very glad she also got a new stroller to push her all around DC this summer!




We lucked out that Dan's dad and mom were in town for the party. We also were excited to have Aunt Rachel and Grandpa Kemp to join us. This was one of the last times we got to spend with Grandpa and we feel so blessed to have had this special time with him. We love him so much!
