Mom, Dad, and Makenna...I look like I'm about to do a little dance...scary thought!
The Parry family with Makenna

Fresh from her bath, Makenna is starting to gain some poundage!







Today was one of those days I want to record and remember in my dwindling memory! Motherhood does that, I have decided. I slept about an hour and a half last night and had to get the troops ready for church this morning. Thank heavens for Dad who helped run some interference and look for things I have misplaced. Never did find the cute little white shoes...oh, well. The dress Makenna is wearing is about 41 years old. It is the dress I was blessed in when I was a baby. After we take a trip to JCPenney's for pictures, we are going to retire it to a picture frame (shadow box type I am picturing). Maybe if it is in good enough shape when Makenna has a daughter, she can take it out and use it for her. I have to check around and see what all is involved in the process. The dress looked beautiful on her and was exactly what I was hoping to find when I shopped for one. Got to save some money and make a little family history at the same time. I got all choked up when I got her dressed and everything fit. I want to get a picture with me and Makenna with my mom. Maybe Grandma will have to go to JCP with us! Hmmm...

The Parry family is pretty awesome. I've known them for 12-13 years I guess. Doug Sr baptized ATC when he turned 8. I guess we have kind of adopted he and his sons for blessings and ordinances. Janie is incredible. She has been through a lot but she is one of the funniest people I know. Many thanks to them for their kindness and support.
