8 Months

Can you even believe that Macks is 8 months old already? I can't, I feel like it was just yesterday that we brought her home. 

I know I pretty much say that about every month but this month she seems to have grown so much. She is all over the place and I am pretty sure she is finally getting bigger. ;) 

Here is a little month in review...

• Macks is a moving machine, she learned how to crawl the beginning of the month, and perfected it at the end.
• She loves eating really people food. She wont eat her baby food if we are trying to eat dinner, she always has to have what we are having.
• I thought she had learned how to use her voice last month but she proved me wrong. She learned how high her voice could go this month and it is very very high
• She can sit up by herself, but it doesn't last long she is always on the move.
• Her naps are all over the place with the Holiday gathering and such, so now that they are dying down I can't seem to get her to take more than a nap and a half during the day. which isn't good because she is not a very fun person to be around when she is tired. 
• She can hold her bottle by herself, but hasn't quit figured out that she has to sit still, she tries rolling over and drinking it while she is on her stomach. 
• She is starting to get heavy, well to me and John at least. She can finally wear 6-9mths regularly, I think I actually put away all of her 3-6 mths clothes!!! 
• She is starting to learn to pull herself up on things. Her bed being the favorite choice
• She has enough hair on the top of her head to put a little pebbles ponytail. (but John hates it) 

Here is what you all have been waiting for!!

7 Months

I can't believe my baby is 7 months

• Can sit by herself
• Sleeps great
• Has a tooth
• She had her first road trip to Oceanside, California
• Loves big people food
• Learning about faces by grabbing ours
• loves to hear her voice
• giggles at just about everything
• gets up on her hand and knees and pushes backwards 
• blows raspberries 
• can no longer be quiet in sacrament or sit still
•  She wears a few 3-6 but mostly 6-9 mths because she is to tall for the others
• Grew out of first pair of shoes :( 

John and Macks at the Temple cheesing it!!

Trying to crawl

Happy Halloween!!

Well, Macks is only 6 months old so going trick-or-treating was kind of out of the question. So we had planned on going to our wards trunk-or-treat, so we bought the candy got Macks in her costume and waited for Dad to get home. After Dad got home my parents stopped by to see Macks and to pick up my dads external hard drive. After my parents left she was starting to get grumpy so we gave her some food and put her down for a nap. When she woke back up we had missed the trunk-or-treat, so we decided to just hang out at home and have trick-or-treaters come to our house. Well that turned into a bust. We only got four trick-or-treaters all night and Macks was down by for the night by 7 so our fun filled night on Macks first halloween turned into a quiet night of mom and dad time!!!

6 Months

Well my little girl is 6 month old. I can't even believe it!!! Here is a little update on her and pictures of course!

• Macks now weighs 14 lbs 9 oz, and is 26 in long 
• Macks is a rolling machine, she can now roll where ever she wants
• She loves hanging out with mom and dad
• She loves to laugh when you chew on her fingers
• She has learned how to use her voice and she is letting the whole world know!!!
• Along with loving to "yell" she loves talking and pretty much talks non stop :)
• She has now eaten pears, bananas, peas, mixed veggies, and sweet potato's. Her favorite is probably sweet potato's she isn't a big fan of the fruit at all. but maybe she will learn to like them eventually :)  
• She loves eating bread as well, her favorite is probably crescent rolls :) 
• She loves trying to grab our cups and drink out of them

Go Cougars gangsta style!

All ready for church and so happy :)

Welcome Home Aunt Chelsea!!!

John's sister Chelsea got home from her mission to California on the 17th and we were not able to meet her at the airport. But they were able to stop by on their way back to Springville and Macks got to meet her Aunt Chelsea!!! 

She loves her so much. Whenever she see's her, she just gets the biggest smile on her face!!! 

We are so glad to have her back we missed her lots and are super excited to spend lots of time together!!!

5 Months

Macks is now 5 months old! She is growing so fast and learning new things everyday! Here is a little bit of what she is doing now.

• She now not only rolls to the right but can roll to the left.
• She can sometimes roll front to back.
• She has done 2 complete rolls in a row.
• She knows mom and dad and will try to find us when someone else is holding her, and then smiles at us.
• She has the biggest personality that keeps growing everyday. 
• She keeps surprising us with new sounds and we love them.
• She is an eating machine, she eats like 8-10 times a day and it never seems enough.
• We are trying to teach her how to eat cereal from a spoon, she still hasn't figured it out but we will keep trying.
• She can still wear most of her 0-3 month clothes, and can fit in a few of her 3-6 month clothes.

Here are a few pictures of her 5th month!!!
