update

Macie is hilarious....whistling, walking all over the place while holding on to things, crawling, and following me around the house (when she's not too tired). She is a cutie. She loves putting things into her mouth and crawling around with the object in her mouth....she LOVES putting socks in her mouth!

I changed my haircolor....it had been too long. I think that was the longest I had ever gone having the same hair color and I was getting bored. So now it's a dark reddish Brown. I like it a lot but it's going to take a little getting used to.

This is Bryce's last week of school for the semester. He's excited for it to be done....but I'm a little nervous since he won't have a job in the summer which means the income is totally up to me and it's the HOLIDAYS so that is stressful. That's about it. I have to make this quick cuz someone is getting fussy!! :)

6.5 months old

Macie Macie Macie....she's pretty much our whole life. We don't have much time for anything else. She's crawling, pulling herself up on things, walking along things, chewing on EVERYTHING, and when she's sitting on a different surface (doctors table with paper, linoleum, tiles) she will kick her feet back and forth on it. It's pretty funny. She's such a little drama queen already, but we love how quick she is to smile and laugh at her mom and dad. :)

Pumpkin Patch Photo Shoot

I made Macie this cute lil' outfit from some old curtians we had and HAD to get some pictures of Macie in it at the pumpkin patch. She was pretty cute, but not very happy this photo shoot, but luckily we got a few good ones. :) I love this little drool bug. Here are just a few of the things I love most:

• She wakes up and plays contently in her crib for like 30 minutes and then we come in she smiles so big and gets so excited she almost falls over.
• She laughs hysterically if we tickle her with our chin
• She loves peek a boo 
• She laughs when we throw cloth at her
• She gets so excited she shakes 
• When she's having a rough time I can take her outside and she instantly calms down
• Before she could grab her binky, if her binky was on the ground she'd just lower her mouth down to it until it was in her mouth.
• When she's hungry and sees a bottle she starts shaking and opening her mouth and leaning towards it
• If we are sitting next to her she'll reach over and fall onto us and then climb up on us
• She HATES laying on her back unless we're playing with her the WHOLE time
• She has a high pitched squeal that is so high pitched that half the time nothing comes out
• I love when she blows bubbles, especially when she's eating

She is hilarious! She changes so much everyday. She's crawling now, but not much. She still hasn't quite figured out how to move her hands and legs at the right times and so she face plants a lot, but if she REALLY wants something she can get it. :)

photo shoot

 I made this cute little fluffy tutu the other day and just HAD to do a photo shoot. She looks so cute in the frilly stuff. Bryce thinks it's over the top, which is totally true, but that's what makes it SO CUTE! :) 

Happy girl. She's in the 95th percentile for weight. She weighs 17lbs. 12oz. Big girl for being only 5 months, but I wouldn't have it any other way. She's can roll over both directions now and is enjoying that. She can almost sit up all by herself and is trying to crawl. I think that by 6 months she'll be crawling and sitting on her own like a champ. :) Looks like we have some baby proofing to do. :)

Random

Macie Loves her baths! She has just started turning her head and opening her mouth to drink some water. Once she gets some in her mouth she turns her head back up and repeats this over and over....it's pretty cute. It scared me at first, but I think she thinks it's cool that one of her eyes goes under water. :)

Lately Macie has been falling asleep on Dad. It's so cute. We have multiple pictures of this, but this is my favorite one. :)

Macie LOVES our cats....and she's pretty good with them. They're pretty good with her too as long as she's not screaming.

How white trash can we get? :) This is something you couldn't do and get away with anywhere else but a trailer park. :) I had to go to work in about an hour and couldn't get my hair wet, so VOILA!! Bryce thought it was ridiculous and I think Macie did too! :)

Bryce playing with Macie. I have such a cute little family! :)
