.... Mackenzie is almost 9 months old...

I want her to stay small... but I am having so much fun watching her grow into her fun personality...
She's standing now (with support.. but sometimes she can keep her balance for a few seconds by herself...).. She's crawling a lot.. Now i realize how hard it is to keep up with a kid..She'll crawl away from me any chance she gets! She's talking a lot - she can say little cute things like "BA-BA", "Da-Da", and FINALLY "Ma-Ma".. For some reason her hair is kind of curly.. I am thinking she got that from my dads side of the family.. but I am not sure..
Being a mom is totally different.. I get tired, cranky, nervous, happy, and even crazy a lot more.. But I think bringing MacKenzie into this world was a good thing.. It changed my life.. I am not out and about getting into all the trouble I use to get into.. I've done some pretty stupid things in my life and MacKenzie absolutely makes me a better person..I think that I rely on her as much as she depends on me... She might only be barely 9 months old but you don't know REAL change until you have a child whose life depends on you...

I saw this dress the other day it was a 12 monther.. I've never seen such an elegant 12 month dress before - so yea... I caved in an got it... originally on sell for 70 bucks.. with my horrible bargaining skills i got in for 45..
