Waving

McKenna learned to wave last week. She usually limits to sharing this privilege and communication to Tim and my friend Melissa. But right now she is watching Littler Einsteins and waving at the TV with all her soul. Man, this girls is so cute. I love her so much, obviously. But seriously ... I love that she can't crawl and doesn't seem to want to. She is much more interested in waving at friends, toys and TVs. I love it.

Hugging and Holding

I just can't hug McKenna enough these days. She is a lot more needy than Quinn ever was. I am pretty much a hands off momma. If you cry and cry and cry, it is bedtime. But with Mckenna, I am different. Somedays she just needs extra love. She loves to be held. I have started carrying her around in the baby borjn, and it makes her so happy. It is not ideal for my back, but again, it makes her so happy. She has a the sweetest smile and cutest laugh, and so when she is sad, I figure she diserves whatever she needs. The older Quinn gets the more I love both of my babies. I feel like I can appriciate the baby stage more as I enjoy Quinn's age, too. Does that make sense? Basically, it turns out, I love motherhood more with every baby and every day. That feels nice.
