I knew it was just a matter of time!

Macie has been sitting up in her bed so much lately, I knew it was just a matter of time before she pulled herself up. When I went to get her from her afternoon nap, there she was, standing up. I am just grateful that I caught her before she fell out on her head. As soon as Brian got home from work, he lowered her mattress. We will probably need to lower it some more when she gets taller, but it will work for now.

I want to help!
What a sweetheart!

Big Girl Car Seat

Friday night we went to Babies R Us and got some great deals!! We were able to get Macie's new car seat and a crib, mattress, and bed rails for $500! The mattress was free and the crib and car seat were each $50 off! We were super pumped to say the least. We weren't going to get the new baby's crib yet, but if we ordered it this week, the mattress (a $120 value) was free. We also found out that the crib we wanted was discontinued, so I'm glad we ordered it when we did!
She loves her new carseat!
A lot more room!!

Juice and Eggs

Macie's palette is expanding daily. This morning for breakfast, Macie had a scrambled egg for the first time and apple prune juice. She loved them both. Of course she still had her formula, but she will only have that for a few more months. I love experiencing new things with her!
I like these eggs!
I'm a big girl now!

Horseshoe Party

Today was the last day for Brian's horseshoe "league". We were at my aunt and uncle's house by 10:00 this morning and they threw horseshoes all day to finish up. Out of 12 guys, my wonderful husband was 12th. However, I would say that he was most improved by far! He has come a long way...maybe next year he won't be last:) Macie and I had a great day visiting with family and friends. We were lucky that the weather was great and although she didn't nap well, Macie didn't get too cranky. We got home around 8:30 tonight and let's just say we are all exhausted!
We put Olivia and Macie's pack-n-plays next to each other so they could talk
What can I step on to get out of this thing?
Macie loved playing in Aunt Gloria's Tupperware cabinet!

Olivia, Macie and Dylan...can you believe they were all looking at the camera?
It is hard to believe that last year we were all pregnant and now we are thinking about first birthday parties!
