Macey Walks

Macey shows off her walking capabilities in Coquille.  Thanks to Uncle Jeff for producing and directing this video update!  Steven Spielberg has nothing on him!

Texas!

Jason headed to Houston for work in February.  We took advantage of the trip and all headed down to see our good friends, The McCarthys.  Macey really enjoyed going to the zoo.  She was very intrigued and loved looking at all the animals.

Watching the seals.

Feeding the giraffes lettuce.

It was so fun to  see how much all the girls have grown in the last nine months, especially Macey and Addy Jo.

What a Difference a Few Days Makes!

We have really been taking advantage of the mild winter we have had in Seattle, getting out and going for family walks, Hutch included.  We have to wrestle Macey into her snowsuit, but once she is in her backpack, she is a happy girl.  Her favorite destination is the park for a little swing time.  

What a difference a few days can make!  We woke up Sunday morning for mass and had to brave the elements.  We were surprised with a rare Seattle snowstorm.  It snowed until Thursday evening.  Schools were closed so Macey and I got to stay home and enjoy some extra time together.  The snow didn't stop this family.  We bundled up and headed out for some winter fun.

Last time Macey was in the snow was in Banff, Canada back in June.  She was only three months old.  This time Macey got to truly experience the snow and play around.

It was nice to have some extra days at home, but we are looking forward to the snow melting and getting back to our normal routine.  

December 2011

December meant seeing family and friends for Christmas.  We flew to Kansas to spend Christmas with the Hubers and Grammy M.  Macey didn't seem too excited to see Santa Claus.  She kept to her routine and did not wake us up early.  Her favorite presents were any toys that played music.  She is quite the dancer.  After our visit in Kansas, we headed to Boise.  We spent time with Grammy S, Poppy, and Auntie Sophie.  Grandma and Papa even made the trek to see us in Boise.  Macey received a lot of new fun toys and clothes.  Thank you to all our friends and family for sharing the holiday with us.

Is Trying to Squash a Fly Funny?

Jason was trying to squash a fly in our dining room.  Little did we know that it would end up being so funny.  Good thing Macey was wearing a diaper.

November 2011

Grammy S came to visit at the beginning of the month.  We enjoyed having her stay for a few days.  For Thanksgiving we traveled down to Coquille, Oregon to visit uncle Jeff, auntie Marie, and cousins Peyton and Jackson.  The weather was beautiful and we enjoyed playing outside and taking walks.  On our way back up to Seattle, we stopped in Eugene for Macey's first sporting event,  the Civil War football game at Autzen Stadium.
