New Pictures

My multi-talented friend, Misti, took a bunch of pictures of our family and the kids. Here are just a few of my favorites.

Macoy's Blessing

We blessed Macoy on Sunday. Justin's brother Jarom also blessed their little boy, Jaden, on the same day. Our church was at 9:00 and so everyone came to Macoy's blessing and then we all drove over to PG for Jaden's blessing at 11:00. We had a luncheon after for the family. Everything went really well and it was great to get together with family.

Kabella especially loved the chocolate fountain.

Thanksgiving

This year we spent Thanksgiving with Justin's family and we had a great time! There was lots of great food and it was fun to be able to visit with everyone. Kabella's hair started out pretty cute, but by the end of the day she looked like she had stuck her fork in a light socket.

Macoy is now 6 weeks old.

Halloween

This year for Halloween Kabella was a pretty little pony. She really liked her costume even though she had a hard time being able to see where she was going when the hood was on!

Macoy was somewhat of a pumpkin. I'm sure he'll have a much more exciting costume next year.

Here is Macoy with his two cousins Jaden and Ty.

He had his three week appointment today and now weighs 10 lbs 14 oz and is 22 3/4 inches long.

Macoy Vance

Macoy was born on Wed. the 14th at 12:38 pm. Everything went well with the delivery until the shoulders tried to make their appearance. I guess the technical term is shoulder dystocia. Once the Dr. was able to get him out, they checked him over and everything was just fine! He weighed in at 9 lbs 11 oz and was 20 inches long. He is a good eater and everyone thinks he looks just like Justin (I'm sure that's exactly why the shoulders were stuck)!

Kabella is adjusting to life with the baby. She is really gentle with him and likes to give him lots of kisses. :)

38 Weeks

Well, I am still pregnant and getting bigger and grouchier every day. If the baby isn't here by the 14th, then I will be induced. We are trying to help Kabella understand that there is a baby in mom's tummy, but I don't think she quite grasps what we are trying to tell her.

Here we are showing off our lovely lady lumps!

18 Months

Kabella is now 18 months old and will go to nursery for the first time on Sun. (Yeah!!!) She has always been interested in wearing my bra, socks, and any kind of gloves. This morning she was asking to wear all three, so I decided I just couldn't pass up this candid moment.

At her 18 month appointment, she was 32 1/4'' long and weighed 25.4 lbs.
