Weekly update:

This week down 2 pounds!!! That is 7 in total... onto week #3!

A new favorite outfit...

Here is one of the outfits Heather bought for Macy. It is so cute! She looks like a little female hunter or something! The boots, the hat, the vest...I love it!
She was acting sooo big standing on the couch!
Every time I put a hat or bow on Macy now, she tries to yank it off.
Thank you "Auntie Heather!!!"

A day of coffee...

Today was full of friends coming over to visit. I love days like this, where I don't have to pack anything, and still get to see friends! Sjana, Kara, and Jamie came over with all their kiddos, and Sue, Sjana's mom which was great! We had: Hunter, McKenna, Karis MacSwan, Peyton and Brooks Munger, Mason McConkey and Macy! 7 kids! Talk about outnumbered! It was very fun to see these girls and we should have had Sue take an updated pic of the four of us... but, understandably we were kinda too busy to grab a camera. :)

Later today, Lynn came over with her Foster Daughter Renny and I couldn't believe the difference between a friend with 1 kiddo compared to 3 friends and 6 kiddos! Ha! We actually had a conversation! It was great to see Lynn and Renny and for the girls to have some playtime.

Renny "read" Macy a story...
Macy listened carefully...
Daddy's little monkey and her friend Lynn!
Lynn, Renny and Macy! What fun girls!

Sunday fun

I told you I was going to make Macy wear that hat everyday now!!! Ha! After church, we hung out at Mom and Dad's and had lunch together. Macy was in a great mood and we had to snap a couple pictures of her new outfit. :) Auntie Kate and Macy...

Mommy and Macy!
When Mom saw this outfit in church she said, "She looks like Carmen Diaz!" Meaning Cameron Diaz. I laughed so hard because my Mom is so NOT into pop culture/Hollywood. When my brother visited me in CA years ago, we bleached his teeth at the dental office I worked at and when I talked to Mom weeks later she goes, "Molly! He looks like Britney Spears!" We still crack up about that one! Macy did look pretty trendy though, with her hat and booties.

Then, to add to the fun, Mom went digging in her closet and found...

Hair clips! Like Macy has enough hair for this. My mom is so funny!!! Katie and I were yelling, "Don't dent her head!" We know from experience that beauty=pain sometimes.

I think Macy liked getting all dolled up, though. Oh yes, this outfit says, "Daddy's little monkey" again, from Heather. Love it!

Heather is in town, make way in the closet!

My friend Heather is in town while her husband is on a fishing trip in Alaska and she came bearing many gifts. Gymboree is pretty much baby gear heaven and every time any of us enters that store...watch out! I had just bought Macy some of the new owl stuff in there (a shirt saying Whooo's the cutest?) and Heather, not even knowing, had bought the VEST...
HAT
And shoes, which I'm saving for 9 month pictures in the pumpkin patch. Or leave pile. Or by a tree. . . So many options!!!!! She loved the zipper on this vest the most.
This hat may be the cutest thing in her wardrobe right now. Get ready to see it on with everything!!!

Macy's first babysitter!

Macy has had her first "official" babysitter(s)!!! I had to clean a house and Mom was out of town, Katie was drowning in work, Sharon had the nursery, Gabe was coming off night shift. So... I called Anna Pimento, Babysitter Extradonaire!!! Anna loves little kids, is VERY responsible and has wanted to babysit Macy from day 1. She was the perfect choice and as a bonus, I got Sarah and KK too. (Above from left, Sarah, KK, Anna)
When we got there, we saw this huge pink cushy blanket and buckets of toys, and every stuffed animal in the house lined up. Macy LOVED IT! I will be calling Anna again very soon, it was sooo much fun to get away and know Macy was in such safe and capable hands. :)
