School was canceled today on account of both of the snowflakes that fell this morning in the midlands, but despite the lack of snow, I was determined that Macy would have her first official snow day. If you look very closely on Harley’s nose, you can see a snowflake (he’s thrilled).  At 6:30am our yard… Continue reading "Snow" Day

Macy had a great time hanging out with her Grams and Granddad this weekend.  They stopped in on their way to the mountains and we loved getting to spend some time with them. Macy and Grams spend some quality time with squash. Meanwhile Granddad is determined to get a pilot in the family. Despite the… Continue reading Weekend with Grams and Granddad

Macy found a new favorite spot tonight. She just stared in awe.

After many failed attempts at getting my camera to take a decent picture in our livingroom, we’ve come to the sad reality that we’re not going to get a Christmas card out this year.  Poor Macy was a trooper through the entire process.  The worst part is that we took some precious pictures that are… Continue reading Instructions for getting your Christmas card from us…

Macy and I just finished our first Christmas photo shoot trying to get a picture for our Christmas card (yep, we’re late as usual).  I had this vision of a perfect picture of Macy sitting in her Christmas dress in front of the tree smiling at the camera…if only our livingroom was a photography studio… Continue reading Christmas Photo Shoot

Macy went in for her 6 month checkup yesterday.  Dr. Thomas said that she is a very healthy little girl.  She is 26 inches long (the 50th percentile) and is 16lb.s 10oz (the 60th percentile)…so she’s pretty proportionate. 🙂  She’s was impressed that Macy could sit up so welland that she had rolled from her… Continue reading 6 month stats.

Macy had her first “half” birthday yesterday…she turned 6 months…so to celebrate she had her first rice cereal.  I’d been planning on giving it to her all week before her last meal, but her night schedule has been really unpredictable because she sleeps late when I don’t have to work.  I finally decided that if… Continue reading Macy's First Food

Stopping to think about Thanksgiving tomorrow and all that I have to be thankful for brings tears to my eyes.  I am so incredibly blessed.  I have a beautiful baby girl, a wonderful husband, a loving family, and amazing friends.  I know I don’t say it enough, but I’m so very thankful for every one… Continue reading So much to be thankful for…

Macy wants to sit up SO badly!  She’s always trying to pull up in her “chicken” chair and on the bobby, so on Halloween night I decided to see how well she could actually sit up with her little pumpkin.  (Don’t worry, I did some trial runs without the pumpkin to make sure she wasn’t… Continue reading Sitting up

Macy went for her 4 month check up and has grown like a weed.  She now weighs 14lbs. 10 oz. (yep, she’s a 75th percentile baby), she’s 24 and a halfish inches long, and her little head is in the 25th percentile.  The doctor said that she looks great and that at least she doesn’t… Continue reading 4 month stats
