End of the Month Update

Sorry my last post was 3 weeks ago, but we've been pretty busy around here! Loving every minute of it though. Miss Macy is such a beautiful blessing and we are enjoying all the newness of her around our house. It is amazing how fast time is passing. I know I felt this way with my other two, but I do not believe time ever passed this quickly. Macy has been a very easy baby so far. She is sticking to a schedule and sleeping well. She only gets upset if you change her diaper or if you do not get her hint when it is time to eat. Other than that she has quietly made her way into our family. Ella is loving being a big sister for a second time and wants me to leave her in charge if I go out of the room. She is constantly trying to "teach" Macy things. It's a fun interaction. Hayden is doing well with the new addition too. He is busy trying to potty train himself though, so Macy rarely pops up on his radar. I have not been forcing this one though because I know we have too much going on around here and I do not want him to regress. However, that being said, he has been successfully taking himself several times a day! We'll see if this continues!This last week was hectic with Mark being sick for 4 days and the sudden infiltration of fire ants into our house, but now Mark is well and the exterminator took care of the ants. So, this week is looking up! Hopefully I will get rid of my boot on Thursday when I go back to the Bone and Joint clinic. Life will seem more manageable without having to lug that big thing around. Note: It's a good idea not to break your foot the week before your due date. Hope you all have a great week!!Ella's big event of the week, her first goose egg! Her head rebounded off the door frame when acting goofy the other night. Big tears, but she was super brave.

You are a wondeful mom keeping up with your 3 precious ones with a broken foot. I hope your boot gets to come off soon.

You do not have to be sorry for not blogging!! The kids are beautiful, of course! We have yet to experience the goose egg. I know it's coming:)

You are super mom with a broken foot! I still want to hear how you pushed with a broken foot!!

I love the pictures! Too bad we are sick over here, or I'd bop over there soon as AW gets home! UGH!! I hope to see you soon, but still gonna keep my distance, just in case. I'd hate to feel like I gave your kids something! Anyhow, but I miss you tons, and until then, hey, we have the phone!! :) Love you and miss you. And tell Miss Ella that Jake LOVES her Little Mermaid nightgown! Stylin'!!! :)

Yeah Hayden! Keep it up buddy! Ella is so precious. I'm glad there is someone to be in charge just in case you have to leave the room. She's going to be a great big sis!
