McKel

McKel, McKel.
Little miss sunshine personality.  She is always making a goofy face, jumping up and down with excitement, kicking her legs in the air showing flexibility that came from who knows where... She is constant laughs.  You can't possibly be around her and not smile.  She adores her older sister and looks up to her like Avril is her idol.  She copies everything Avril does, yet does it in her own independent way that is totally McKel.  She asks why after nearly everything you say, and is curious about EVERYTHING.  She is clearly already very gifted athletically, although she isn't quite ready for sports because she has the attention span of a goldfish.  She loves her "brown bunny, and polka dot blanky."  You know when she's getting tired because her personality changes from fun and happy to making you want to put her down immediately.  You also know she's tired because she will ask for her brown bunny, her security.
She has gorgeous, thick, shiny hair, and the cutest smile you've ever seen, with bright baby blues and long eyelashes that go on for days.  You can't help but fall in love with this little gift from God.

This pictures cracks me up.  For Halloween, Mike took the girls up to see their dad.  He picked them up from school during nap time.  This is how he found McKel.  This is not an unusual sleeping position for her.



In Mike's truck on the way up to Logan... here she is being her goofy self, trying on Mike's hat.

Searching for goodies in the freezer... she knows just what she wants and isn't afraid to do things herself.  In fact, if you try to do anything for her she will bite your head off for it!

Another truck ride, eating a giant muffin.  Just plain adorableness...

We love you McKel!  Our spunky little ball of energy girl!
