Mackenna's 18 months old

Exactly one week ago, Mackenna turned 18 months old. I can't believe how fast she's growing up and becoming a little girl. Here are 18 fun facts about my little Mackenna:

1. From the time she was born, up until now, she has always been in the 90th percentile for weight.
2. She loves to play at the park, the slides are her favorite.
3. She's such a daddy's girl, but lately she's become very clingy to me and I really like it.
4. She loves Signing Time and Little Einsteins and calls them her "shows."
5. She is saying sentences now. Some examples, "mommy show please?" and "Daddy bye-bye work."
6. She loves her Kindermusik and My Gym classes and her teachers.
7. When you ask her if she's a baby or a big girl, she says, "big girl Kenna."
8. Most of her friends are boys, but daddy says that's only o.k. for a couple more years.
9. She's starting dance classes in a couple weeks, yeah!
10. She loves dogs and fish.
11. She can be very loud.
12. She has started running away from me, especially in parking lots, so we also started "time outs."
13. She is very good at entertaining herself and others.
14. She is very close with both of her grandmas and cries very hard when either of them have to leave.
15. I know this is my fault, but she is borderline obsessed with Jamba Juice. She calls it her "juicy."
16. She loves to feed and rock her baby dolls.
17. She is still a great sleeper/napper, which is a good thing because when she is awake, she is AWAKE!
18. She is the biggest blessing that we have ever had and I can't imagine my life without her. She brings so much joy and happiness into our home and I'm so thankful for the past 18 months with my beautiful little girl.
