Finally, an update!

OK, so it's been a little hecktic around our house for say, oh, the past 5 weeks...but here I am, finally, with an update! McKenna is thriving, getting bigger and bigger everyday. We have had lots of visitors, including Grandma Harper, Aunt Leslie and Aunt Heather, Grandpa and Gigi Rasmussen, Aunt Nancy, Aunt Sarah and lots of mommies friends from work! We are thrilled that McKenna has so many people who love her and want to know her. It really makes mom feel better knowing that although it takes a little effort to see eachother, McKenna will be able to really know her family members, despite the distance.

Other news: We've mastered the feat of breastfeeding, we've taken our first walk at Mission Bay, after which we attempted to go out to breakfast (we made it ALMOST all the way thru the meal without a meltdown!), mom and dad got both of their flu shots in an effort to protect thier baby, dad painted the master bedroom (cause he has SO much spare time these days- ya right!), and Izzie is doing a great job as big sister (although she is scheduled for surgery on her knee next week which will leave her lame for about 2 months- just what we really need right now, huh? Gotta take care of our "first baby" though).

We are very excited that Aunt Leslie, Aunt Heather and Greg will be visiting us for Thanksgiving!! It will be a full house, but it will be nice to have a quiet Thanksgiving here in San Diego. It will give McKenna a chance to bond with her two favorite aunties! Shortly after their visit, Grandma Wachtman will be here from Arizona and then the following week, Grandma Harper will visit from Washington! Wow, such a busy holiday season! Let's not forget our travels to Sacramento- we will be visiting for Christmas, I CAN'T WAIT!!!

Thank you again for all of your love, support and prayers for our family!! We love you!
