Jumping

My sister-in-law, Mandy, gave Macy this jumper and she loves it! At first she wasn't sure what to do but she figured it out:) She has graduated out of her "babyish" toys like her playmat (which she used to love) because she is much more active now. I'm still not ready to be chasing her, but I know the day is quickly approaching!




On a side note, I just went in and checked on Macy napping and this is what I found....

Reading

Don't you just love a good book in the morning??

Easter Pictures

I know I'm a little behind, but here's the rest of our Easter pictures:)

Showing off her bow

"Spring" Softball

Why are we dressed like this for SPRING softball!?!
We had to dig this jogging suit out of our winter clothes that were already boxed up:)



Macy enjoyed watching Daddy play, but she especially enjoyed "playing" with cousin Mallory. She loves her! Mallory just has to look at Macy and she starts laughing. It's precious. They will be a pair!

Macy Giggles and Lexi's Birthday

Macy loves to be tickled and Daddy knows just the spots that really get her going!

Today is Lexi's 3rd birthday! And to think, we've almost got her potty-trained:) She really is a good girl and we can't imagine life without her. She has been a little jealous lately, but does really well with Macy. And Macy loves her! She laughs when Lexi comes up to her and she tries to reach out and pet her. They will be good friends.

5 Months

My precious angel turned 5 months old today! For some reason, 5 sounds so much older than 4! Everyday we see more and more of her little personality shining through. And she is full of personality!


The shoes she has on in this picture were mine when I was a baby


Josh was in Dallas this morning, but he made it back in time to grab a late lunch before he headed back to the office. We thought this would be a good opportunity to try out a highchair.

She loved it!

Smiling at a little boy sitting next to us. Oh boy, we are in trouble!

Macy, at 5 months you are:

• eating 5 times a day
• taking your last feeding at 8:30
• sleeping from 9:00 - 7:00
• eating cereal every night
• finding your thumb
• sitting in a highchair :)
• interacting more with Lexi, reaching for her and laughing at her
• taking a 2.5 - 3 hour morning and afternoon nap
• in size 1 diapers
• laid down in your bed to go to sleep
• reaching and grabbing for toys and Mommy's phone. You love cups!
• wearing size 3 months or 3-6 months
• weigh about 12 pounds and are 24 inches
• smiling and laughing a lot, especially at strangers when we're out and about

The shirt Macy has on today says "Hand Picked". Thank you, Jesus, for placing Macy in our home and choosing us to be her parents. What an amazing responsibility and joy. You exceeded all of our expectations with this beautiful gift.

We love you, Macy girl!

Easter Egg Hunt

The Saturday night before Easter, Nana and Papa hosted an Easter Egg Hunt for all the grandkids. They had a blast! Each holiday and special occasion is exciting these days having our little girl with us:)

Macy and Papa



Next year I'll be walking on my own!



Most of the eggs went straight to our mouth



The famous 6
Unfortunately, this picture was taken right before Grant fell off the bench and Macy broke his fall. Pictures can sometimes be traumatic for us (she also got bit by a rabbit at Motophoto when we tried to get some Easter pictures taken)



We were still upset here:)


What a fun night! We did get some pictures taken on Easter of the three of us and I will post those soon. Macy girl was not quite as upset in those:)
