Collin turned 26, and Makenna hit the 4 week mark.
So in honor of Collin, my wonderful husband I decided to list something I love about him for every year he's been alive!
I love...
1. How much you love me
2. How quick you are to help....anyone who needs it
3. How hard you work for your education
4. That you are so passionate about the things you love
5. That you are so "confident" (some would call it cocky)
6. The way your eyes squint almost shut when you smile
7. That you like to cook
8. You get SO into the movies you watch, you do the actions with them!
9. Your family
10. That you call Makenna "sissy face"
11. Can admit when you're wrong (most times!)
12. That you can and will befriend anyone
13. How you stand up for whats right
14. That you worry about your girls
15. That you are an eternal optimist like your father
16. That you are the ONLY one who can calm me down when I am upset
17. That you remember every useless fact you have ever learned
18. The cleft in your chin
19. The way you worry about loosing your hair
20.The way you don't care if your clothes match
21. The way you love my family
22. The way you punish Marlee....but always go back to comfort her afterwards when she is sad
23.That you sing SO loud when you have your headphones on and you don't know I'm listening
24.That you took a chance on me
25. That you are always up to try something new
26. That you love me despite all my faults.
So, after4 years and 7 months of marriage, these are a few of the things I love. Thank you for being you. I can't wait to spend the rest of our birthdays together.
Here's to you husband. I love you and HAPPY 26th BIRTHDAY BABE!
*As for Makenna, she is now 4 weeks. She went in for an appointment yesterday and was up to 8 lbs 8 oz. Not bad! She's already gained over 2 lbs! She is in the 30% which is strange for me because Marlee was always in the 95% for weight! She is still small, but big compared to where she started. She is definitely changing every day. She always smiles in her sleep and I LOVE it! She is more vocal now, but still a really good baby. Besides the sleep deprivation, I am actually handling 2 kids pretty well on my own. It will just be nice when she can go more than 3 hours without eating! That's all for her update, Mom and Dad are coming in tomorrow (hopefully). The weather here has not been real nice lately so we'll see. I hope they can, because I REALLY want them to be able to see the baby. We'll see!

I can totally picture Collin doing the actions as he's watching a movie.
Makenna is so pretty!
What a sweet post! Is that hair really as red as it looks in all those pics?
Mandi! Oh my goodness, it is so fun to see pics of your sweet fam! I can't believe that Marlee is two! I loved the pics of her and the baby, they inspired me to dust off my camera! I've thought about you guys in school, and I hope you are enjoying it. Soon enough you'll be like us paying back student loans! Thanks for saying hi- I will definitely be keepping track of you guys now!
xoxo Kari
Oh Makenna is so pretty... I love the picture of her sleeping. It almost looks like she's faking it. : )
oh my gosh! She looks so different! If you ask me she looks an awfully lot like her aunt Jenn. Adorable!
