And so it begins...

McClain started walking this week. She's been taking one or two steps here and there for the last couple of weeks. Then, on Thursday, she walked about half the length of our kitchen. On Saturday, the only way she would get around was to walk. Granted, it's still a little shaky and interrupted by falling a lot, but she gets back up and gets going again. And today, I chased her all around during church. I can't shake this feeling that this is only the beginning... McClain is pretty pleased with herself!
She makes laps around our kitchen table.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY STEVEN!!

I just wanted to say Happy Birthday to my sweet hubby!! Today he turns 28, (I know, he's old!) He is the greatest husband and daddy. He loves McClain so much, he loves nothing more that spending time with us. He does so much for me. I appreciate what a great man he is and I just wanted him to know how much I love him!

Camping Fun!

This weekend we went camping with some friends. It was fun, but it was SO hot on Saturday. We spent a lot of time playing in the stream by our camp. McClain had fun and she slept really good in the trailer. (That's a first!) We had really good food and great company. There is nothing better than sitting around a campfire, staying up all night talking. That's living!! Thanks for the good time guys! Let's do it again!!Shooting 22's.

McClain had a ball playing in the water. She was splashing and kicking her feet.
Here's a picture of our camp.

The County Fair

This weekend we went to the county fair with The Robinson's. We had fun looking at the animals and riding the Merry-Go-Round. McClain loved the lambs, while Taylee hated them. McClain also loved to ride the Merry-Go-Round. My parents were there and bought the girls tickets to ride.(Thanks Mom!) They had fun riding the horses. And of course, we capped the night off with a trip to Sonic.

"Lightning" McClain

Last weekend McClain let us know just how much she likes lightning. She moves like lightning and she had this paper strewn all over the floor before we could even stop her. She thought she was pretty slick. Then, later that night there was a thunderstorm. Instead of being scared of the big noise and the bright flashes, she and Steven sat on the couch and watched the storm go through.
