Summer is over and Fall begins!!

Well we had a great summer and finished it up with a trip to Florida. We got to visit with Kiki and Max at their new place on the florida coast. It was both Kylee and Makenna's first time to the beach and they both loved it. I know some of you californian's will beg to differ, however the beach's on the East Coast totally blow California's coast line out of the water. From the sand to the water its amazing!



Anyhow, while in Florida we made a day trip to DisneyWorld. Kylee got the entire Princess experience. From her hair and makeup being done by her fairy god mother to her princess dress, crown, tiara,shoes and magic wand. Yes, she had both a crown and tiara.. She loved every minute of it. She was slightly overwhelmed when she saw herself for the first time but quickly adjusted to it. Everywhere we went at DW they called her princess. She got to ride her first roller coaster and loved it and just wanted more and pappa took her on the tea cups. We were hoping to do its a small world but unfortunately it was under construction. Makenna was a trooper. It was super hot and clearly she was too young for any of it but she did great. We went to watch the Monsters Inc show and that was the only point she had an issue.. She didn't like all the people screaming and laughing.. Every time the audience started to scream or laugh she started crying. So I took her outside so kylee, kiki and patrick could enjoy the show.Kylee got to meet all the princess and Mickey and Minnie.. She was in heaven. All and all it was a fantastic day despite the heat. The following day makenna cut her first tooth, so it was a big weekend for her too.





Thanks to kiki and Max for hosting us for the long holiday weekend. We had such a great time and it was hard to leave. We love your place and can not wait to come down for another visit.

Patrick had a boys trip to Washington DC with Mark, Jake, Zack and Max. Sounds like they had a great time and didn't get into too much trouble. Or atleast the story goes! I am looking forward to my upcoming girls trip to Vegas at the end of the month with Angie and Donya... This will be my first get away from both girls..It maybe hard at first not to see them for 4 days but it will be a great trip for sure!

Kylee's 3rd birthday is just around the corner and it is hard to imagine my baby girl is getting so big and Makenna will be 1 before we know it. This past year has just flown by.

I'm not sure what is in store for the Davidson Family this fall and winter but I am looking forward to whatever God has in store..

It finally happened!

Kylee is potty trained!!! Wahooooooo.. I am positive there will be accidents along the way but my baby girl is finally in big girl panties! I have to say that of course Patrick and I are way more excited about this than she is.. But she loves how excited we get everytime she potties!!!

On another note we have moved Makenna from the baby carseat into the big girl carseat. Still facing backwards, but I was over carrying the other and we feel this one will stay cooler (temp wise) for our trip up north! I feel like my girls are growing up so fast!!

The Last 6 months

Well I have to start off by apologizing for not updating the blog for the last 6 months. I just had no desire to get it done. I will try and make this as short as possible to get you all updated on the goings on of the Davidson family. Makenna Grace made her arrival just as scheduled on January 11,2010. It was a great delivery. She was a little peanut at just barely 6lbs 1oz. Kylee was amazing with her, she just gave her lots of love and has continued to be an amazing big sister. We could not have hoped for it to go any smoother! My parents and sister where there for the delivery this time which made it even more special. Im glad she came when she was supposed to so no one missed it.
I enjoyed my time off with Makenna. We got to have alot of bonding time while kylee remained in school. Once my maternity leave was over it was much harder for me to return to work this time. I felt the need and the want much more this time to stay home, however its just not in the cards at this point.
Just last month we were able to make it back to California for a 2 week visit. We hadn't been back as a family in almost 2 years. It was great to see our friends and family but it definitely made us miss everyone that much more. We were able to spend a week in Sonora and visit my family and see our niece Alex graduate high school. It was also the first time most had got to meet Makenna. We are so happy we were able to spend the time with everyone.
The following week we headed down to Visalia to spend some time with Patricks parents and his friends. We stayed with our dear fiends the Lorenzi's. Kylee had a blast playing all week with Emma (6) and Lily (3). The Lorenzi's hosted a bbq with all Patricks friends.. It was a great time and made it much easier on us to see everyone. We made it safely back to Atlanta with only a few issues. Makenna got the flu just before we left california. I was the only other one that caught it.
We have been spending time with our friends swimming and going to the lake and we are looking forward to our up coming trip to Illinois for Mike and Jenny's wedding. We can't wait to see everyone up there. So hopefully that sums it up for the last 6 months.. I will post some pictures soon.

38 weeks

So just a quick update. We are 38 weeks today and only 6 days left until Makenna arrives. We are hoping she holds on long enough for my parents and sister to be here this time for the delivery. So far so good. I am having alot of cramping but it comes and goes. Patrick is at work and kylee is at school and I am trying to take advantage of the peace and quiet. Its hard for me to imagine that in less than a week I will be a mother of 2 beautiful little girls! I think Kylee is starting to figure out things are changing. She has been an extreme momma's girl lately.. I am cherishing every second she cuddles with me. She is a joy to have as a daughter and I hope Makenna is half as lovely as Kylee and I will be the happiest mom ever!
