9 months!


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 got to meet santa at christmas and loved to pull his beard, we got to meet grandma K, we visited our great grandma around christmas and got to meet Auntie Kotarah and Uncle Ryan who is just smitten! At her 4 month appt she was 15 lbs and grew 9 cm since her 2 month appointment!
5 months! We are fully laughing now, we have tried alot more foods like carrots, custard, butternut squash and avocado, we like it all! 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! She figured out how to jump in her jumperoo.

3 months old!

Shots and Snowstorms! We had our 2 month shots this month, a nurse had to hold Macy for mommy while taking the shot, she was just too nervous! We reacted to the shots pretty good and at that appointment Macy weighed 11 lbs 8 oz and 21 inches long!This month we got our first major snowstorm! It was really hard on mommy and daddy! We have been kept in the house all day not alot of walks, it was really hard! We planned a "Meet Macy" party but had to cancel due to the roads being so bad! But Aunt Sarah and Uncle Jeremiah still came down to visit us and they were just smitten by Macy! 
As the weeks went on other people came to meet Macy, Aunt Lucille and Paul came to visit us, spoiled us like crazy! Got some snuggles! It was great and Macy really enjoyed it! 
We got a visit from Grandma Karen! She got us a new car seat, and a few cute outfits! We love her, she is like the baby whisperer! Grandma Pam also was down quite a bit, she loves being read books  and smiles all the time at both her grandmas. 
Our favorites this month has been the turtle that Uncle Jeremiah and Aunt Sarah brought me when you touch the head it crinkles it makes sounds and has flashing lights. We are learning how to grab things and only like to sit or stand. Laying down is now for babies! We have morning cuddles with mom in bed and anyone that meets Macy adores her! 
We got into our first accident, a guy side swiped our vehicle leading mommy and daddy to get 2 new vehicles that can fit Macy in better! We enjoyed Mommy and Me workouts with Ashley and Aubrey.  We got to meet tinkerbell at a christmas market and she was smitten of course! We met the big guy at the mall and Macy grabbed a hold of his beard and the elves got her to smile big! We can't wait to see what next month will bring! 
Daddy pulled me around the yard with his remote control car 

Our first car accident luckily no one was hurt RIP grand am

1 month old!

On October 4th Macy turned a month old! During that month, we decided that we really like mommy, daddy and especially grandma. Grandma was able to stay with us all throughout the month and help mommy and daddy to adjust to you coming home! Our favorite toys this month has been our dancing dinosaur that is a music box, our video monitor that plays "Silent night" and "You raise me up" as well as, our nighty night owl that makes heart beat noises. We love dance parties with Daddy, Mommy learnt how to play with me and just before we turned 1 month I got scared for the first time! We are beginning to grab things and discovered our arms and legs by stretching them out! 

During the month we had met up with lots of people, we went on 2 walks with mom group. One was at the mall with Janssy, Devon, and Ashley with their babies Maely, Timothy and Aubrey. We went on another walk down at Mckenzie Trails, mommy had never been there before and didn't park in the right parking lot but we eventually found everybody. We went on that walk with Eileen, Rhonda, Amy and of course grandma! We met up for coffee a few time with our friends Deb and Heidi. Lastly we went to the library for mother goose, where we sang nursery rhymes, and read a few books. We really enjoyed our time there, and Devon and Timothy came along as well!
