Macie's First Doctor Visit

Macie had her very first doctor appointment with Dr. Wiley. She is doing so well. She weighed 8 pounds and 2 ounces and was still 20.5 inches long. Dr. Wiley did find that her right clavicle was broken from birth, but he said it would heal on its own. She does not act like it hurts her or is bothering her at all. She had to have her heel poked for a second PKU test. She was such a big girl and hardly cried at all.

Here is a picture of Macie sleeping in her bassinet with her new night gown from Aunt Kourt.

Macie fell asleep in her swing and her headband slid down over her eyes. It was so funny she slept right through it.

Busy, Busy

Sorry about the delay in updates. Bryan and I have had some major life changes lately. We have started unpacking at our new house in Clyde, America but still have alot to do. Bryan has been working alot in the yard, cleaning up the billons of leaves attacking our grass and it is looking much better. Macie's room is painted, furniture arranged and thanks to Fay her clothes are washed and ready to go. (Pictures soon to follow) We are getting very excited this week Macie is full term and could possibly come anytime now. We are still commuting back and forth to Lubbock so I can work at Covenant until the big arrival. I will try and update the blog more often, but no promises talk to you all soon.

36 weeks

We are now entering the 9th month- almost there. Macie now weighs almost 6 pounds and is still packing on the weight at about the rate of an ounce a day. She is about the size of a crenshaw melon and more than 18 1/2 inches in length.
