I am big girl now....

or so she thinks! :)
Mackenzie is desperately trying to crawl. She wants to so badly, but her little legs are just not quite strong enough yet. I have some cute video of her trying, but the dumb computer won't let me upload it today, I will try again.
She is also more and more confident sitting on her own. She does well until she wants a toy or gets side tracked by her sister.

Christmas morning....

Christmas morning couldn't come fast enough for Scott and I, but both girls didn't have the same feeling. We were up well before both of them and we ended up having to wake Madison up around 8:30! But they have fun opening their presents from Santa and from us!
