Makenzie DISLIKES

March was a fun filled month of visits from Vavo and auntie Ky, the Brookins' family, and a video visit from Tia Jess. Makenzie attended several of my team's soccer games. She is such a trooper and for the most part does well at sporting events. She even made it out to her cousin Amy's softball tournament.

Eat
Makenzie's eating habits are absolutely awesome! She is still breastfed, and eats between 1-2 meals of solids a day (usually lunch and dinner). She has recently been introduced to chicken and loved it. I can't stand prepping it, something about pureeing meat is just plain gross! She still doesn't have any teeth though so she is limited on what I feel comfortable giving to her. :) I tried a piece of turkey burger last week and well the little chipmunk scared to crap out of me. As I get braver and more confident in her chewing skills I may branch back out and giver her more 'solid' foods. For now she gets very soft chopped veggies to grab and eat. She is getting quite good at her "pincer grasp". Ps. no she hasn't figured out the sippy cup yet, she just likes to play with it.

Play
Most of Makenzie's play consists of putting everything in her mouth still. However, this month she started experimenting with banging objects on things and together. She will pat everything (table, ground, toys, your face, etc). She is becoming more aware of the game peek-a-boo and doesn't get scared as easily. Ross has created "the claw" game where he slowly creeps his hand and arm towards her and then tackles/tickles her. She is able to anticipate what will happen and when her face and whole body cringes it is so cute! Once a week we go "swimming" in the spa. Don't worry it's not too hot I promise. She loves to splash around and kicks her feet when placed on her tummy in the water. Makenzie will officially start her "shrimp" class swim lessons next week at our gym. We are very excited for this mommy/daddy and me class. We also get to learn fun ways to promote her water skills.

Sleep
Ahh... we love sleep. Makenzie is in a great sleep schedule. Finally! Bedtime is still at 8:00pm, wake up is between 6:30-8:00am. Morning nap happens between 9:30-11:30am with her afternoon falling in between 1:00-3:30pm, she has an occasional catnap before dinner.

We are looking forward to celebrating Makenzie's first Easter. She already has a couple of cute dresses for the holiday.
Hope you are all having a wonderful Wednesday!
