Macy was blessed yesterday and the day turned out very nice. Thanks to everyone who came and helped make it a special day. All dolled up and ready to go. I made her little bracelet for her blessing day. This is the same dress we blessed Ashtyn and Haylee in. Macy with Grandma McGarry. Grandpa had to go back to church and Grandma had to come later because she was the only one that could play the organ at church that week. I missed getting pictures of Michelle, Brock, Kelli, Shane, Shaylee, Brandon, Britni, Logan, Whitney, Rachel, Jeremy, Isaac & Ainsley who were also there. Aunt Gail, Uncle Bruce, Jacob and Gigi Scott's side of the family. By this point in picture taking Haylee was crying and Brigham wouldn't grace us with his presence. Good times! Our complete family. We are so happy to have Macy here finally to join us.

Guess Who Is...

SLEEPING THROUGH THE NIGHT! I put her down at 11:30 last night and she slept until 9a.m. The night before she slept from 10:30 to 8:45 but we woke her up this time so we could get her ready for church. On Friday evening I came home from a day of shopping and she slept from 5:30p.m. until midnight was up for an hour and then slept until 9 the next morning. Lets just hope this lasts! Yes, I am as happy as she is about the whole thing.

Immunizations

Today I took Macy to get her 2 month shots. I dread these appointments knowing that they will be fussy for the next few days but it has to be done. She was upset before they even gave her the shots, in fact the nurses walked in and turned around and walked out thinking they must have already given her the shot and that they had the wrong room or something. We weren't off to a good start. Eventually I got her to calm down, got her mad again after the shots and then she rested peacefully while it was my turn. For a few years now I have been dealing with high liver enzyme levels which cause me to have tightness in my chest, heartburn, dry dry skin and maybe even the lovely rash I had while I was pregnant. Since my deductable had been met for the year we decided to get things test further to figure out what is causing this. I am scheduled for an ultrasound tomorrow morning at the hospital to see if my bile duct is clogged or if damage was done to it when I had my gall bladder removed 8 years ago. They also took blood to run tests on for liver issues. I have already been tested for hepatitis and have ruled that out so it should be interesting to see if/what we find. Back to Miss Macy... For her weight of 12.56 lbs, she is at 82% and her height of 23 in puts her at 64%. They said she is very alert for her age and keeps her head up amazingly well. We are thrilled with her progress, she took a 37% jump on her weight since our last visit when she was 10 days old. I guess my milk is working just fine for her. Here she is with her bandaids. Brigham was pretty bummed that he was the only one that didn't get a shot today. That kid is crazy and really, really wants a shot. When we got the h1n1 vaccine he was ticked because we ended up getting the mist instead of the shot. I wonder if he will really be a big fan of shots when he actually has to get one.

Halloween 2009

This picture is a classic. Haylee is such a diva, Ashtyn quite the opposite. All ready for the Kennedy Spookfest, Two cowboys, Casper, Dorothy, and Hannah Montana The most I dressed up this year was fake eyelashes. Macy was Casper the ghost for a few minutes until she had a blow out all over her outfit. Oh well. Since we didn't have anything to dress Macy up as my friend Darci let us borrow this little outfit. It was a little tight on her but we made it work. Thanks Darci! We attended our ward party which was a huge hit. Tons of people showed up and all the kids had a blast. Here they are getting ready to play red light, green light. We entered our mummy pumpkin in the pumpkin carving contest and took second place. Not too shabby. We won a pumpkin bucket full of Halloween goodies. Carving pumpkins. Haylee painted her pumpkin this year but decided to do it in her underwear...thus no pictures Gutting the pumpkins. The kids were determined to do this on their own which was fine by us. I was feeding Macy and didn't get a chance to take pictures of the final product. I am lame and was going to get a picture later and completely forgot. The pumpkins are now in the trash so I guess it is too late. Brigham carved an alien and Ashtyn carved a cute Frankenstein.
