Bling Shoes Already?

So, MacKenzie and I went for some retail therapy last Friday. Don't you know, she picked out her first pair of shoes? She spied a sparkly pair of sneakers and reached out to touch them. I let her pick them up and she said "oooooh", and then smiled a big 4-toothed grin! Needless to say, after I told her grandmothers about it...we of course had to go back and get those sneakers!

We had a lovely day today, ending up with a visit to the pet store (MacKenzie is fascinated with all the fish tanks and the parakeets!) and then a stop at the corner of Market & Main in Mechanicsburg for the Concerts on the Corner series. Tonight it was contemporary Irish folk music. We almost lost a shoe...not one of the Bling Sneakers, thankfully! It was my first go-round with playing "where did Baby kick off the shoe?"! We found it right beside the car when we were done dancing. Thank heavens...they are new too...this was only the 2nd time she had worn them.

We've learned some new things, including Eskimo kisses! Her BFF, Ava showed us that last week, and now MacKenzie likes to do it. Ava is a year and a half old, and smart as anything! We are working on "in" and "out" and have been using some sign language for a while. Today at lunch, MacKenzie asked for "more" ice cream with sign language!!! I was sooo excited!
