{before I forget}

I finished a few more layouts of Makayla recently and wanted to share them with you...
There really are not a lot of updates at this point. We are just enjoying life and loving every moment together as a family.
Blessings,

{MORE than one 1st}

MAKAYLA said "MaMa" {May 13th, 2010}!!!!! Ok, so the first time she said MaMa is wasn't directed at ME, but the fact that she is making that sound is HUGE!!! That means the hearing aids ARE giving her more sounds and stimulating her brain. The next day we went to the Speech Therapist and I told her what happened and she said to jump on it and next time sign to Makayla that she IS saying MaMa and that is MY NAME!!! She is doing it more and more, this really worked. Now, she is saying it and signing it at the same time.....tear!!!
We are now official potty trained too. We actually meaning Makayla...I have been potty trained for quite some time now! LOL Makayla LOVES her NEW Princess panties and every time she goes potty she points to them and signs "HAPPY"! It is even going so well that she isn't wetting her diaper at night either!!! I will wait a while before I trust this one though, if you know what I mean. Washing a ton of bedding takes a lot longer than throwing out a diaper!

Here is a layout I did this week of our Sweetie getting to lick the frosting off the beaters. She LOVES frosting! {heehee}

Have a beautiful day!
