Sunset Park












McKenna absolutely loves to be outside! Too bad we aren't in Texas right now :) We have actually had several days of sun and no rain in the last ten days which has been really nice. It is getting colder though, but I am determined to get outside and hopefully not go too stir crazy!

Brandon says that "true" Oregononians don't care about the rain and cold and that you just have to go outside and play anyway. It's not really that cold, just like 50, but to a Texan I guess that is cold, ha ha. So McKenna and I have been putting on her hat and coat going to the park quite a bit in the last week (towel in hand to dry off the equipment) almost everyday that it hasn't been raining and then walking afterwards. I am really surprised though by the lack of kids at the park. There must not be a lot of "true" Oregonians out there, ha ha. I think McKenna doesn't mind too much because she has the whole park to herself and doesn't have to share. Last week a little boy came to the park and McKenna held her arms out and said "no, no" like it was her playscape and no one else could play on it.

She is getting so big and it seems like she is growing up so fast! Sometimes I look at her and think where did the time go, pretty soon she's not going to be my "baby" anymore. Although one of her favorite things to do right now is to act like she is the baby. Boy is she going to have an awakening when the new baby gets here!
