Makenna riding her new bike
Mark and Makenna with Grandpa and Grandma J.
Here are some videos of Mark and Makenna playing football with Uncle Mike. After having a bad "tackle" experience with Mark pulling Makenna to the ground, we had to incorporate the 2 hand touch rule. Then Mark took a break and it was just Mike and Makenna. I don't think football is Makenna's game, but the way she was throwing the football she may be a softball pitcher someday. She can really whip the ball around! Enjoy the games!
Mark had his 2nd soccer game this past Saturday. It was wet, rainy, and muddy, but he didn't seem to mind. He is definitely starting to get more agressive toward the ball which is good. He even kicked the ball so hard at one point that it hit another player in the face and then he stopped cold, because he didn't know what to do after that and I think he felt so bad. No goals this week, but I think he is doing much better every time.
It was Matt's Uncle Mike's birthday last week and Aunt Cebra and him were nice enough to come over and let Mark and Makenna sing Happy Birthday to him. They brought over cake and cupcakes, which would win them over anyday. Afterwards, Mark asked Uncle Mike to fight with him of course, because that is still Mark's favorite thing to do, and Uncle Mike agreed. It was so funny listening to Mark's rules for him. He has such a great time with him and they just love their Uncle Mike so much!
Here is a video of Mark and Makenna acting Silly. I think Mark thought I was taking a picture of him at first, and then realized it was a video. He still loves his knight stuff, but loves his star wars light savers. Makenna is still making up songs and dancing around. Enjoy!
