Sisters

Macy loves baby Julia.  She always has to know where she is and if Julia makes any sound at all Macy has to know "what is wrong with her?"

Macy does not like anyone but JD or me to hold Julia.  She immediately insists "I want my baby back!"

I love seeing my girls together.  I have two constant reminders that prayers are answered and miracles do happen!  

Grammy's Visit

We are so glad that Grammy came home for a week when Julia was born.  My mom helped me a ton and Macy had so much fun spending time with Grammy, her aunts and cousins while we were in the hospital.  Unfortunately, Macy now thinks that Grammy means no Mom or Dad around and is a little wary of her.

We love you Grammy and Grampy!

Mothers' Day

Macy gave me the most adorable flowers that they made in nursery from the kids' handprints.  I am so blessed to be her mother.  She has brought me incredible joy.  


I am also blessed to have a wonderful mom and to be surrounded by so many amazing mothers that have taught me so much about love and mothering.  

Swimming

Macy loved swimming in St. George during our May trip and we loved that we had the pool to ourselves everyday.

This is Macy's "What's the great idea?!" face.  She was not happy when the man came to clean the pool.

Crop Circles

Macy has a new favorite character and a very nice dad (who now answers to Donald Duck or Goofy).

Easter

We had a great Easter weekend in St. George.  Since we were on vacation, I barely took any pictures.  I wish that I would have gotten some of Macy coloring eggs with Will, Max, and Claire.  It was her first time doing it. I think she cracked every egg she touched.  She would just drop them into the dye.


She loved spending the weekend with her cousins and had a little cousin crush on Max.  When we got home, she asked me to draw pictures of her and Max holding hands.


I did get a few pictures of Macy at the community Easter candy hunt that we went to in Washington.
