Settling in...

We are starting to settle in at our house. I love having all this space to play in. Every morning I get to take a walk to the mailbox. When I watch TV, I love to sit on the ottoman. I think Mommy and Daddy bought this especially for me!

Fun at Monkey Joe's

Mommy and I met our friends from our Mommy and Me class (from when I was a baby!) at Monkey Joe's last week. Emma and I weren't sure about it at first, but once we got in, we didn't want to get out! Then we ate at Stevie B's, where I got to have chocolate ice cream, and I helped clean up afterward. (We both enjoyed seeing everyone again!)

My first house guest!

Emma was my first guest in our new house. She and her mommy, Ms. Sara, came over before we moved in. I showed her my new room, and then we played in all the empty space! We have so much fun together!

Trip to the movies!

I went to the movies the first time back in May. Mommy and Daddy took me to see Shrek 3. I loved it--cartoons and popcorn? I was in heaven!

We've been so busy lately, Mommy hasn't been able to post some of the fun things I've been doing. I got my first pedicure, walked in a cake walk, watched TV while cuddling up on a box, and celebrated with Michael as he graduated 5th grade. What a busy summer!

Our new house!!!

We are officially homeowners! Mommy and Daddy signed the papers today, and we are so excited. I've already picked out my room, and can't wait to move in. We're going to paint the entire house and make some changes before we move. We'll keep you updated on our progress!

Mackenzie and Mommy

Mommy & I had our pictures made together, just for fun. Aren't we adorable? We love being together, and this is one of the best ways to preserve this wonderful time. (The pictures look much better in person; the computer changed the color when it was scanned in!)

Lunch with Emma!

Emma and I met for lunch at Chili's, and had a great time. We colored, ate yummy food, and giggled the whole time. Our mommies loved watching us enjoy ourselves. We're gonna have to do this more often!

We are so silly!

Happy Resurrection Day!

Happy Resurrection Day from the Cronon's. We had such a good time this weekend celebrating with family. Enjoy!

Easter lunch!

After church, we went to Ryan's for lunch. This way, nobody had to cook or clean, just enjoy the food! I had lots of my favorite people there: Papaw, Nanny, Daddy, Grandmama, Mommy, A.J., Aunt Beth, Blake, and Uncle Chris. The fun thing is to call everybody's name and say hi across the table!

Happy Easter!

When I got up Easter morning, I was amazed to see my Easter basket overflowing with so many goodies! Mommy painted a house for my little animals Daddy bought me, I got a new outfit, lots of candy, a bicycling bunny, and lots of other yummy stuff. I had to tear into the chocolate Care Bear as soon as I could!

Getting ready for Peter Cottontail!

We had to wait for Peter Cottontail to come back from his lunch break to take a picture with him. After Daddy walked me around Peter's house to smell the flowers, we took a break on this bench.

Here Comes Peter Cottontail...

When I finally got to the Easter Bunny, I decided I didn't really want to see him ater all. I tolerated sitting on his lap for just a minute, and then told him "bye-bye"! He sure is a lot bigger than I remember from last year!

Yum-O!

We went to McAlister's Deli for lunch on Saturday, and I did my impersonation of Rachel Ray. I put my pretzel in my hot dog bun and ate it like a sandwich. Yum-O!!!

A-Hunting we will go...

I went to my 2nd annual Easter egg hunt at our church on Saturday. It was really cold! I hunted down some yummy eggs, and got to see the animals at the petting zoo. Then, I got to plant my own flower! I love flowers, so I can't wait to see what grows!

Fun at Zoo Atlanta!

Daddy, Mommy, & I went to the zoo on Thursday. We had such a great time! The first animal I saw was an elephant--my favorite. Then we got to see the pandas, gorillas, sea otters, kangaroos, snakes, and another favorite, the turtles! Here I am, acting like a big monkey. Daddy says it's a perfect fit!

Look at all the animals!

I posed with Mommy on the Willie B. statue, with Daddy in front of a Budweiser Clydesdale, and by myself in a HUGE birds nest. What's bigger, the nest or my eyes?!

Waiting for the train...

I had the most fun of all waiting for the train to come. I boogied, played with the ropes,made faces, and waved to the train. I loved coming and seeing all the animals, and riding the fun rides too!

Too Cute!

After my "showa" tonight, I got to use Mommy's hair "towa" to wrap my hair up! I love being a big girl!

Clean up, clean up, everybody, everywhere!

Friday night we went to Monterrey's (again). I was so excited because the waitress let me clean up the place. I vacuumed all over the restaurant. Mommy and Daddy had to drag me away from there. Mommy tried to placate me by letting me vacuum at home, but it's just not the same.

Chillin' out...

My aunt 'Chelle had to have surgery last week, and while she was in the hospital, I went to babysit my cousins with Papaw while Mommy and Daddy were at work. I helped Papaw cook dinner and give Kaitlyn her bottle. I helped Stephen and Chris play with their Hotwheels cars and helped Michael play his video games. All that helping wore me out. I had to collapse in the first chair I saw. Luckily for me, Kaitlyn likes to share!
