Sunday Story

Today at church Mckay was told that he was the cutest kid in the ward!  This came from a man who has a number of his own grandchildren in the ward.

He was also told that he is a perfect combination of Elder Jeffery R Holland and Richie Rich.  Elder Holland because of the jowl's, and Richie Rich because of the perfectly combed hair and his suit.  What do you think?

The Real Mowgli

Our last Mowgli posting was an inspiration for tonight's Family Home Evening activity.  We decided that Mckay needed to start taking part, so he was in charge.  We thought his choice was pretty good; I think Mom and Dad enjoyed it more than he did.

Grandpa and Grandma Eastin Visit

Mckay was very excited to have Grandpa and Grandma Eastin come and visit March 2nd - March 6th.  They were in town for a teachers conference Grandma was attending and Mckay talked Grandpa into coming along so that he could play hide-and-seek around every corner in our apartment.  What he didn't expect was Grandma having to take off his socks and patting the bottom of his feet while kissing them.  He thought that was pretty funny.

We visited the Oregon coast with them as well.  We took a scenic drive through some small towns and ended up in Astoria, where we ate some fish and chips and saw the view from the Astoria Column.  To get to the top of the column you have to take a circular stairway of 164 steps (easy to get dizzy doing that).  Once we were to the top, a woman was talking to Mckay and then asked, "How did he get up here?"  I responded, "My husband carried him."  The woman's response to that was, "Heavens to Betsy; what a man!"

We then drove down the coast to Seaside to walk along the beach and let Mckay have his first visit to the ocean.  Quinn insisted on wading in the water and said that Mckay couldn't visit the ocean for the first time without wading in the water too.  Mckay didn't like how cold the water was, and he made sure Quinn knew it.  As soon as his feet hit the water he started hollering. 







Compliments of Grandma

Grandma was sure surprised to find Mckay crawling over his carseat to come say hello on the drive home.

One of Mckay's and Grandpa's wrestling matches.  Who do you think won this one?

Helping mom cook

Mckay loves being up on our level in the kitchen so he can see whats going on. He loves to help also. He stirs my oatmeal for me every morning. I thought I would let him help with dinner
