Alternate title for this post: “Lots of photos of Mackenzie. Because she’s pretty stinkin’ cute. And because I haven’t posted enough photos of late, according to some doting relatives.”

That would be a very long title. So, “New Things” it is. :)

Bumbo! A fun baby seat given to us by my co-worker (in “Smuggy green” of course). Mackenzie loves to watch me work, fold clothes, cook dinner, etc. So this little seat will be perfect.

Look closely and you will see a laptop cord and a Qtip for Kenzie. So you might say this photo represents my life: juggling work and a baby. Yeah. I could probably end the post right there, but there are more photos new things, so moving right along…

Mackenzie’s first luau. She is fond of new faces and fortunately I have lots of friends who are fond of babies!

Her first bath. Ok, no not really… but it *was* the first time we’d taken photos of her after a bath. So that’s a new thing, right? Right? ;)

Giving our awesome double (long story) jogging stroller a spin.

Our walk was not without its mishaps.

Notice how there is no front wheel in that photo? Before going on our second walk in the stroller, I keenly observed that all three wheels were flat.

I know what you’re thinking, but the answer is no. The gas station air pump won’t work. Even though it very nearly works, that doesn’t count. (Apparently).

No worries, though… Daddy to the rescue.

And finally, yet another “new thing” made blogworthy because of the cute baby featured in the photo. A hat from Great Aunt Robin! :)

Because I know you are wondering: Although people DO steal stuff from the Speedway down the block and on occasion are hunted down by searchlight in the middle of the night…. fortunately, people do NOT steal your double (long story) jog stroller if you are a complete space-case and leave it outside on your front walkway all night until kind neighbors point it out the next morning store the stroller outside.
