Makayla's Almost 3

      

Well I know I need to write a 3 year update on Miss Makayla. Yes that’s right she will be 3 years old in less than 3 weeks. That is so hard to believe. Makayla is a little ray of sunshine in our lives; she keeps us smiling, laughing, and on our toes. She is a sweet and compassionate, but can be a little stinker too. She acts shy around people she doesn’t know very well or if she’s in a new place…but don’t let that fool ya- this kid is full of life and quite rambunctious. She has proved to be an excellent big sister as well. We are very proud of this sweet girl!

Makayla has become a picky eat- I have no idea where she got that from. ;-) More often than not she doesn’t eat a lot of meats. We offer it to her but it’s often left on her plate. Therefore we recently started giving her a daily vitamin. I was a lot like that as a child, and still as an adult.
