15 months!

month update: Just a few days after she turned 14 months she officially took her first steps on her own! The next day she was walking on her own without so much convincing and she chooses to walk whenever she can! She says hi, bye and waves every time she hears it! She learnt how to go down the stairs by herself as well as up the stairs! Her favorite thing to do is throw her toys off the banister to the landing! Her favorite dog is definitely ruff and now that she is walking ruff is finally warming up to her, she loves to cuddle her! She can officially play peek-a-boo with her hands, she loves only walking, and holding hands while she explores the new world through a different view! Changing her diaper is like being part of a WWE match, and she is so busy playing, making messes, and giggling all the time!
Trips and outings:



We hung out with our friends Ashley, Aubrey and little sammy again! Macy loved cuddling with little sammy and shared toys with Aubrey. Macy really enjoyed playing in their ball pit, and bouncing aubrey in sammys bouncy chair.










We went to our friend Ryker's birthday party at the collicut. They had their party in the fieldhouse, they had a bouncy castle, tons of little push cars, baby walkers, hockey sticks, hula hoops etc. The sky was the limit with how much stuff to have. Macy really enjoyed the walkers, and the bouncy castle. She loved bouncing on it and sliding off of it! She tried her first vegan cake and it was a hit, she had it all over her! She got excited and clapped every single time Ryker opened one of his presents. Their party was a huge hit for Macy!

We got to meet the grinch and had a photoshoot with him at a petvalu. It was supposed to be for dogs but we just couldn't resist meeting the grinch! Macy got to wear a dress that mommy wore when she was around her age for the picture!

We went to the festival of trees with grandma and our friends Molly and Emiley. We got to go view the trees (although not good with toddlers that want to grab everything). We painted a birdhouse, we got to decorate a tiny tree with tinsel, and we got a santa hat with her name on it in glitter! It was super busy but we had a lot of fun with our friends!

She had lots of sleepovers with her grandma, and we she now has a new adopted grandpa. Grandma's neighbour Laurence, she loves to cruise the halls of grandma's apartment holding his hand!

14 months!

month update: She still has 0 teeth, forever teething! Still not walking on her own, but loves to push her walkers and hold onto one hand and walk! She still loves her white puppy, she loves to dance, she is beginning to "talk" more. We had a bad month of illness in our house and she was hit as well, but that never got her down. She was still happy as ever even though she wasnt feeling well!
Trips and outings:
Macy went trick or treating for the first time! She didn't fully understand why we were saying hi and bye so quickly. She thought if we were going to their door we should go inside! After a few houses Macy finally got the concept and she got excited every time she got a goodie in her treat bag. Her dad and I helped walk her house to house to ring door bells for candy! She was so proud of her loot as well, was swimming in it when we dropped off grandma at her place.
We also went to the abbey centre with Dad, we went up the big kid structure with both myself and her dad! We took her down the slides and she enjoyed climbing up to the top of the structure. She wanted to chase the bigger kids, but couldn't keep up!

She still has 0 teeth! We are beginning to work on the walking, and she took a few steps by herself! Her favorite toy is her white puppy that aunt geminie and uncle norman got for her! She has gotten quite cuddly this month and will snuggle up to anyone! She learned to start sharing her food with the dogs (bad habit) and with anyone that is trying to feed her!
Trips and outings:
She went to the pumpkin patch for the first time! It was chilly out and she was teething so she didn't enjoy it quite as much! But we loved seeing what kind of activities were at the patch! We enjoyed our time with our friends Char, Ivy and Ryker at the patch!

Auntie Christina was sick in the hospital, but by Macy going there it made her feel better. She loved to pinch auntie, and loved to be held and loved by her. Macy went swimming with her Auntie Kotarah and Uncle Ryan and loved trying to tear apart their house! Auntie Kotarah didn't realize how many things babies can get into! We got another visit from Julie and her youngings, we went to treehouse and enjoyed playing with her kids! We went to the zoo with our cousin Saphire, and got to meet Auntie Nikki.

Update: 

Our little Macy Moo turned 9 months not that long ago! We had our 9 month doctor check up and she weighs 18.5 lbs and is 27 inches long! Was awfully hard to get her to stay still during her appointment as she still hates to be laying down completely, she still thinks she is going for a nap every time! She is loud and proud! When we go out or we are on the phone most people ask if she is having happy screams or upset screams! 90% of the time they are happy screams! She still has 0 teeth but has continuously been teething hard since 4 months! I think that her eye teeth will pop through soon as well as some others! Her comfort toys are her bath toys, always loves to have them in her mouth at all times anywhere! She officially clapped her hands together this month after Mommy and Nana tried to get her to clap her hands all the time! She loves bath time still and she pulled herself up in the tub for the first time in the tub, man was she proud of herself! She had bouts of separation anxiety from me when being around other people! She was attached to my hip almost the whole month! She began to notice that people come in all different shapes, sizes and ages! Her favorite age group to watch is still 5-10 year olds, they make her giggle the most! 

Trips and outings:

We had quite a few outings this month! We went to the zoo for the first time with our friends ryker and Ivy. We enjoyed seeing the peacocks the most as they were not caged in and you could pet them! We went on lots of walks with friends and hung out with wally, Maely, etc. We attended Maely's first birthday party and splashed in the water, enjoyed the other babies! 

We stayed the weekend at Michelle and Burts where we had tons of babysitters to help with us! We spend the whole long weekend there and we enjoyed all the kids that helped us out! All the kids helped bounce Macy gently on the trampoline. 

We got our pooch Cooper this month as well, off an acreage in Edmonton, he loves Macy just as much as we do! 

We got to see Grandma Karen for a few days, trying to help her find a job! 

We also went up to Edmonton to go visit Aunt Sarah, Uncle Jeremiah, Brock and Angel! Uncle Jeremiah was a natural and took care of her most of the time! They spoiled us by buying her a super cute minnie mouse hat and buying socks since her toes were cold!

Update:

We are loud and we are proud this month! Macy talks non stop and borderline we can't tell if it is happy screams or mad screams! She can officially say mama and ba ba. She is eating everything, yogurt is her favorite but she tries everything from chocolate to certain vegetables. She loves to jump, laugh, LOVES swimming still. Her favorite people are mama, grandma and daddy! She is a pro roller at this time and never has the patience to even complete a full diaper change before flipping, when she flips she can get up on all 4s and crawl backwards. She is still the biggest grunter for everything especially when she tries to reach for anything. She still has 0 teeth but teething is going strong all the time! 

Trips and Outings:

We travelled down south to Lethbridge for a week to go help grandma to pack to move up with us and to visit great grandma! We went to this rummage sale that everything is free with great grandma, we had lots of fun there! We had lots of fun with great grandma and she gave us a doll with a tiny potty. We got to visit with an old coworker of Mommy's Kayla with her son Jackson. We also went for coffee with grandma's friend Juanita and we loved her! It was great to catch up! We said goodbye to some of the great areas of Lethbridge, like the museum and stan siwik the swimming pool that mom took swimmings lessons at as a kid! Mommy enjoyed her time with grandma and enjoyed restaurants that are not in the red deer area such as Marble slab and Mocha Cabanas.

We enjoyed celebrating Aubrey Ann's first birthday with her momma Ashley at treehouse! We loved enjoying ball pits, went on the boat ride and went down the slides with momma.
Exciting things:
Macy got her ears pierced by Jesse's Aunt Holly on our trip down south in Brooks, she was not happy getting it done but she survived! After about 20 minutes after she was back to her happy normal self after getting them done!

6 months!

Macy moo is 6 months old at her doctor appointment she weighed 16 lbs and is 63 cm long! She began to say mama when she is mad, we are working on saying dad and she finally figured out how to jump in her jumperoo! She finally is beginning to like tummy time, she can shake her own rattle and enjoys older babies. Her main focus on motivation is ruff! She laughs at everything. We constantly go on play dates with a lot of other friends, our favorite places to go is treehouse in red deer, the abbey centre in blackfalds and swimming. 

We went on a little vacation to Rocky mountain house to go see her dad. They had a swim pool there where we worked on some swim lesson exercises and blasted music. Mom's phone died while trying to go back home so we had to try and navigate on our own. 

We had a lot of blow outs this month! One of the most memorable ones she got her foot hooked on the diaper and it landed dirty side down on her face, bad thing was she began to lick the poop when I took the diaper off her face. It was the first time that after a diaper change I just decided a bath was in order. She got poop everywhere! On her feet, her hands, on her stomach! I got it everywhere on me as well! At least she loves her baths, she loves to splash and jump in the bath tub when I take a bath with her. 

She got her first cold this month, we were so glad that grandma was down because I got sick as well. Grandma was looking after mom, dad and macy. Jesse got the worst of the cold but after getting some puffers and antibiotics we all got better! 

4 months & 5 months old

Its been awhile since we have updated! I am going to do an update altogether. Since 4 months old we have tried some various foods, we love oat cereal, and raspberries. At 4 months she was able to touch her toes and became talkative as ever!

We sat up for the first time in front of daddy and mommy in the bath tub! We went swimming for the first time and we love it alot! She is cutting her left bottom tooth!
