The Long Family

Where do I start with this update? Mikayla went on her first family vacation for Labor Day. We went to Patoka Lake with Grandma and Grandpa Long, Uncle Austin, Uncle Ryan and Aunt Amy. Mikayla didn't spend much time on the boat as her life jacket just looked way too uncomfortable. She didn't seem to mind the boat as long as we were moving. The highlight of the trip... Mikayla tubed for the first time! Now don't freak out, she was in mommy's arms the whole time. Grandpa Long was good too. He only took us at idle speed. Great Grandma Long and Great Grandma and Grandpa Swank were all down there part of the time too so we had lots of help with Mikayla.

We had Mikayla's 4 month check-up last week. She is now 12 lbs 13.4 oz and 22 inches long! She's really reaching for her toys and playing alot. She's even rolling from belly to back and sometimes back to belly! We can tell she's ready to start getting around too because she's trying to crawl, but definitely needs more practice! It won't be long before Mikayla's chasing Lexi and Mackenzie around the house!

I guess that about does it. Oh, she's also teething. She's wiggling around on my lap right now trying to chew on my arm!
