Makayla has done some pretty cute things lately that I thought deserved another Top 10 List! Enjoy!
1. It could be a horrible day where she acts crazy and runs around and never listens, but after bath time when it's time to settle down for bed, she will get all quiet and snuggle right up to me and we cuddle together. This is absolutely the BEST feeling ever.
2. The way she just makes up random phrases. This week it has been, "Mommy, are you ready to rock?!" Ha! Love it!
3. When she gets excited about dressing up in a pretty outfit.
4. The way she dances..it's awesome.
5. When she sees that I have a "boo-boo", she loves to kiss it and try and make it all better.
6. The fact that she loves to be in the kitchen and helps me cook.
7. She is an outdoor girl. She loves to be outside, playing with sticks. I did too as a child.
8. Our youngest cat has finally warmed up to her, and she loves this! They now cuddle together and he sometimes seeks her out for a nice rub down the back!
9. When I come home the days she is not at school, she usually runs to me and gives me the biggest hug!
10. When she gets excited over the least little thing, like bubbles. It's adorable.

Happy 3rd Birthday Makayla!
On this day 3 years ago, my OB was telling me at this exact moment that my blood pressure was too high, but the baby was doing ok. She felt though, it was time to get the baby out before my bp went up anymore and put the baby in stress. I was totally floored. My due date was still more than 2 weeks away, I had left everything at home. This was supposed to be just a routine Dr.'s visit and it turned into my baby's birthday. They asked me to go straight to Labor and Delivery and check in. I immediately called Phil and told him to go straight home, get the bags, the car seat, all the cameras and rush to the hospital. Luckily my mom was with me on the particular visit, so she kept me calm. Otherwise, I would have totally lost it. As soon as Phil got to the hospital, we started calling everyone on our phone tree list! They still had a lot of things to do to get me prepped for the emergency C-section, and most of my friends were able to make it to the hospital before Makayla was born. At around 5:15, they wheeled me into the delivery room and gave me my epidural. They got everything ready and at 5:52 pm, our beautiful, precious angel came into this world. She was 8 lbs. 4 oz. and 20.25 inches long. She had jet black hair and was the most beautiful thing I have ever seen.
One day old..
She was 7 months old here, we are visiting the Pumpkin Patch 2006

Birthday Parties and Toddlers...
So today is the day. The day I decided to invite 13 toddlers to run around a gym and act like crazy people... all for my daughter's expense! I hope she knows how much I love her...
Yep, although today is not technically her birthday, we are having the big party today! Whohoo! (The big day is actually tomorrow.) So in just a couple of hours, I will be surrounded by 2 and 3 yr. olds and people dressed like clowns! (We voted for circus themed party, minus the clown make-up.)
Wish me luck that we all survive today! I will post pictures later after we've recovered!
