Smiling and Cooing

Mac's been making cool sounds and smiling a lot the last few days.

Mac Sleeping Better

Mac is sleeping a bit more during the night, and she is awake more during the day. On Saturday, she was very unhappy and cried a lot. We were at the church much of the day working on stuff, and she just didn't like that. But, the next day we were there again, and she slept. So we're not sure what the deal was.

Mackenzie's One Month Old

Mackenzie had her one month checkup. She weighed 9 pounds, 12 ounzes and was 23 inches long. She has also started sleeping between 5 and 6 hours at night. God, thank you for a wonderful baby girl! You created her just right!!

Snowed In

My employer closed shop today due to the weather. It was a unexpected
blessing to get to stay home and inside with Jennie and Mac. We
worked on the house, getting ready for our baby shower/open house
party tomorrow. We also set up the Christmas tree.

Our home is really starting to feel like a home. I know that sounds
weird, but it's taken us several weeks to get used to this new place
and find a place for all our stuff. It's so neat that every appliance
and book and movie and cup and chair and everything else now has a
special place to live inside our home. When you live in a
small/disorganized space, things don't exactly go anywhere except a
box or a corner or a stack.
