"I'm a Big Kid Now!'

Here again is our darling, McKenna. Back in October I MENTIONED to Tim that we probably ought to consider putting McKenna in her toddler bed and out of her crib. It was more my way of getting used to the idea by talking about it. Well, Tim took that as, he better get on it and take care of things. So while I was gone one Saturday, he took down her crib and put up her bed. I came home and he told me he had a surprise for me. Poor guy, he thought he was being such a good husband and doing what I asked but I wasn't too thrilled. In just a few hours he had taken my baby away. I had a big girl. I didn't think I would have such a hard time with it but I did. The REALLY sad part was that she was absolutely thrilled and has never looked back. She now thinks she is as big as her big sisters. Sigh!

Here she is on her big girl bed. I was having so much fun taking her picture, I thought I'd share them all. (Mostly to make the grandma's want to come and see her in person.)

McKenna with her FAVORITE elephant. She doesn't sleep WITH it she sleeps ON it like it's her pillow. Strange. I wonder if I'll ever have to buy her a pillow.


Can you tell she LOVE'S to get her picture taken.

It was time for her nap after I got through taking her pictures so she climbed in to bed ready for one more photo op!

Here she is pretending she's asleep so we could get an ACTION shot.

Love the photo shoot... too cute. The action shot is my favorite. Little kids crack me up. I am having anxiety over the fact that my baby will be 4 in May. What? It goes by way too fast.
