i know, i know

So I am apparently the worst mom at updating a blog that mostly centers around my baby. She is doing great, by the way. On the 12th, we had her 4 month check up and she weighed 16 pounds, beware everyone-Godzilla baby might be coming your way soon! She's so chubby, she has cankles and wrist rolls... it's funny! But I know she'll start moving soon so the fat will disappear and lead way to a lanky baby. But hey, I'm enjoying my "chunk-a-munk" as I call her. She is so much fun. Every day she starts doing something new, starts discovering new things she can do, new sounds she can make, and crazier faces she can make. She's always smiling or laughing, or eating it seems. She's eating at least 6 ounces, more like 8, at almost each feeding on top of rice cereal and pureed fruits. So far we've tried: apples, bananas, pears, and peaches. Peaches weren't too successful but I think that's coz they were kind of tart and she seems to like sweeter foods. She also likes corned beef (Matt fed her some-to suck on- on St Patty's Day) and chocolate (I knew she was a Smith somewhere in there!! :))

I am so excited! My mom and grandma are coming on Friday for a 5 day visit and it will be so fun! Grandma hasn't met Mackenzie or been down here to visit us yet, so that will be really neat. We're also going up to Seattle in June to baptize Mackenzie and go to Megan's graduation from EWU, so if anyone is up in the area from June 6-16, let us know coz we'd LOVE to see you!

Okay, so here are some new pictures of the baby for you!
