I know everyone was disappointed to only see pictures of our living room yesterday and none of Makayla so here are two videos to make up for it!
This is only cute when a baby does it...
This one's for you Aunt Meghan! She already has better skills than I do! (which we all know really isn't saying much...)
Mid-morning....
Late afternoon....
I took this one a little far away but you can still see the big tower she built!
Pause for a quick sip....
Whew! She made it to the top and is ready for a big drink!
Showing off the sticky egg...
A close up of the egg...
She did it!
And she clapped each time she got it to stick back on the glass!
Busted! She has a look on her face like she was caught doing something bad...
Then she remembers, "Oh yeah, this is my toy!"
Makayla hasn't played with this toy in a while so it was brand new to her yesterday!
Hanging out with her friend, Seth.
They had a blast while Jason pulled them around in the coolest wagon you have ever seen! 
Makayla was all dressed in green and ready for her party at school! Notice her new favorite toy - the empty yogurt container. It occured to me tonight that most of her "favorite" toys are really garbage. I promise we do put most of the garbage in the garbage cans!
A natural fish in the water... Makayla was very comfortable in the pool and showed off her blowing bubbles and back float. She even copied Erin and blew bubbles with her whole face in the water! She was having so much fun that we stayed in the pool for about an hour!
After a long afternoon nap, we went to check out the new puppies. Allie had 18 puppies! They are now 6 weeks old and ready for a good home!
That's a lot of puppies!
Makayla handled all of the excitement with no problem. She was interested in them for about 5 minutes, then found something else to play with.
She loves to climb up and sit on everything! This is a rocking chair that I had when I was little. Should we call the Antique Roadshow to come check it out?
So cute! 
Determination... Makayla has been able to climb up the little rock wall with our help for the past few weeks. Today she did it all by herself!!! She looked so proud of herself when she got to the top. Then she did it about 5 more times!
After the hard work of climbing, looking through the telescope and spinning the wheel a few times, she slides down!
Up the stairs! She decided a few days ago that she wants to go up the stairs by herself now and gets mad if we carry her! Sorry about the angle again!
Check out how fast she can run in her new shoes!!! At least someone in the house can fetch.... (if you assumed the labrador RETRIEVER could fetch, you would be wrong!)
See, she likes it! Actually, she was happy to see her cup of milk. This kid drinks about 30 ounces of milk a day!
On our way to a hike. It was up to 80 degrees this afternoon - perfect weather to get outside! (Didn't it snow here less than a week ago???) Here is Makayla waving to Kona.
They are so cute!
Ready to go! You can't see them in this picture but Makayla has on brand new Nike running shoes! We let her test them out towards the end of our walk and she walked about the last quarter mile herself. Between chasing her and controlling the dog, Jason and I got a good workout too!
We went out to dinner last night and Makayla's meal came with a pickle, so we thought we would let her try it.
She was not a fan!
And then she tried to feed it to me!
And as soon as she saw the water bottle with pop corn seeds, she picked it up and carried it around too!
Eventually she gave up on the box and when back to her old favorite toy, the formula container. She was very frustrated when she couldn't get the lid to close with the bottle inside!
Today's favorite toy - a water bottle with a few popcorn seeds in it. Entertainment for hours! Ok, maybe just minutes...These are a few videos that I took today. This is just a snapshot of the entertainment we get all day!
This is a new noise Makayla recently learned - and does all the time now! Notice she still loves to play with the remote!
Fun with yogurt! Here are some more of her tricks. And as a special treat - you get to hear a little of Jason's "singing" at the end!
Ok, I admit this may be a little mean....but it is hilarious! Sorry about the angle, I couldn't change it so you just have to turn your head!
Bubbles! She blows bubbles all the time - unless I am trying to video it. But I actually got a few seconds tonight!
