Fall is finally here!






I am home alone tonight and Macey has gone to bed so i thought that i would try and update all that is going on. What a busy life we lead. We are having so much fun watching macey grow and change. Right now her big thing is screaming just for fun. And man is it loud. She thinks it is fun and will do it over and over again. Oh well, at least she is happy. She has also started sucking her left thumb at times. We have found her a couple of times sound asleep with her thumb in her mouth. I think it is cute but jonathan is not so sure that he likes it.
We have enjoyed the cooler weather that we are having. The fall colors are beautiful and macey enjoys our morning walks. I bundle her up as best i can and we head out to walk on the greenway. It is surrounded by beautiful trees and it is just beautiful to see everyday. Macey gets her morning nap in on our walks so it is nice for me because i get some excercise and my child gets her nap. It is like killing two birds with one stone.
We are looking forward to this weekend. Our friends, Mike and Liesl Acquistapace are going to be here for the weekend. We are so excited to see them and spend some time with them. It is the first time they have seen Macey, which i am sure she will ham it up with them.
We are doing well. I am still enjoying my 1 day a week of work and Jonathan is doing so well with Macey. She loves her daddy time. 
Here are a couple more recent pictures. Hope you enjoy.

Growing oh-so-fast!!

I know that it has been way too long since I have posted a blog. I find it increasingly difficult to find the time. Macey seems to be getting busier and busier as the days go by. She doesn't take as many naps and wants attention during every waking moment. In fact, right now i have her playing on the floor right next to me hoping that she will last until i get done writing this blog. I know that it is no excuse but I have honestly tried.
Macey is growing so much. I have posted some current pictures of her and you will see all of the fun stuff we have been doing these last couple of months. Macey just had her 4 month check up and she currently weighs 14 lbs and is 24 3/4 inches long. Her weight falls in the 60th percentile while her height is in the 75th percentile. Her head is still greater then the 100th percentile. So she is a long, relatively skinny baby with a big head :) Seriously though, her doctor said she is healthy and right on track. 
We have enjoyed the fall season in tennessee. The leaves are finally starting to change colors. We took Macey to a pumpkin patch and she loved it. We had fun propping her up on and in between pumpkins to get a good picture. We are excited about the up coming holidays and starting some of our own holiday traditions.
She is changing so much everyday. She easily rolls over and loves to stand every single second that you will allow her to. She is pretty happy most of the time and will usually give you a huge smile. She especially loves to smile for her daddy. 
We are having so much fun and wish that our family were closer so they could watch her make all of these changes. We are hoping that these pictures will help you see a little glimpse of the person that she is starting to become.
