Visiting Santa

Tonight we made a trip to the mall to see Santa. Lennon and I chat about him pretty regularly these days, so I honestly thought she would be totally fine with pictures this year. 

Walking by him, she thought he was great. She would wave and say hello. She even blew him a kiss. We went to wait in line. Still good. Finally we were next. She was holding my hand, looked over at him, looked back at me and said, "All done, mommy." I explained we were going to take a picture with him and she said ok. On our way over, she stopped and started pulling back. We made it to Santa and I was carrying her at this point. I tried to put her down and she held on so tight I didn't even need to hold her. Pretty funny. After asking if she would like to sit on his lap, next to him, stand in front of him, etc...she agreed to sit on my lap. After this shot, I asked her if she wanted to try one sitting with him and she told me, "No thank you mommy. All done please." Can't argue with that.

The entire time, Marin was just sitting on his lap staring at him and his beard. It was all we could do to get her to look at the camera. 

My apologies to the few that will get one of these pictures. Didn't mean to mess up the cuteness with my mug.

7 months old

These have to be some of my favorite pictures ever. Marin looks so adorable in them that I can hardly stand it.

6 month family pictures

Here are Marin's 6 month photos. We snuck in them to make a family shoot. They were taken at Happy Apple Farm and I think they turned out great. We may even have gotten a Christmas card out of the day.

Guess who's 5 months old

For the longest time, I felt like time was dragging a bit with Marin. I am not trying to rush time by any means, but I just felt like she was staying little. For too long. My little, adorable, sack of potatoes. All of a sudden, she's almost 6 months old. I remember 6 months being the time when, all of a sudden, Lennon was so "grown up". Marin is beginning to do new things every day. These are exciting days.

Here are her 5 month pictures. I am so excited for her 6 month pictures. The whole family will be included, and we will be taking them at one of the cutest places around.

Marin is 4 months old!

Well, she's adorable. Just too cute. Our little M is 4 months old. Go here to check out her latest pictures.

Marin, 3 months

Here is the link to Marin's 3 month pictures. There is also a link on that page to see the rest of her series thus far.

She's here!

Well, I guess I won't be posting week 39 or 40 photos. Little Marin Vi McKee is here! She's tiny and cute and loud. You can go to the link on the right to see more pictures of her first few days. Labor and delivery went well. Nothing like the first time around, but overall, still an ok experience. And, this time my water broke at home, so that was different.
