Happy Thanksgiving!!!

This year we have so many things to be thankful for. We are enjoying having Grampa, Grammy, Aunt Shanny and Uncle Paulie here for Macyn's first Thanksgiving. Sue made an excellent meal, as usual, and we all ate way too much, as usual! We also had Terry, one of the other joints fellows, his wife Christy, his son Brett and daughter Savannah over for Thanksgiving and we all had a great time. Macyn enjoyed her first Thanksgiving and about 6 hours after I ate, she enjoyed a delicious turkey dinner and pumpkin pie!! We were sad that our entire family wasn't together as we traditionally are in Pittsburgh but we are thankful that Grampa, Grammy, Aunt Shanny and Uncle Paulie had a safe trip down here. We are so lucky to have such great family! Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!!!
Macyn with Aunt Shanny in her new snowsuit for Christmas. She couldn't move her arms and shortly began to cry and scream. She wasn't a fan!

A little calmer with Aunt Shanny.

Sticking her tongue out again!!! Her favorite face to make!

Mmmmm....TURKEY!!!

Knocked out with Aunt Shanny!

Here is Macyn hanging out with Grampa in her Baby's 1st Thanksgiving outfit from Grammy!

Bored Mommy!

Today was dress up day but she really wasn't into it, which is why most of the cute pics are of her actually without clothes haha! When I put the pink dress on her, she cried most of the time and when I was going to put on her pajamas, she started playing and smiling. She loves to be a little naked baby, what can I say!

hanging out

Here are a few pics after Macyn was done eating. She is so content!

Here she is looking at her favorite toy "Sassy" She loves vibrant colors and loves to look at things in constant motion which means that mommy has to sit there and shake little Sassy all day. I finally just attached it to the mobile in the pack and play and she loves to stare at her and another toy I name "Frassy."

Big yawn. Although she is up a lot more she is still taking consistent naps after eating. I am looking at her right now taking a nap in her swing. Depending on how tired she is her naps vary from 10 minutes to 30 minutes which allows mommy to get some work down (like going on facebook and blogging!)

A sly little smile from her. These are hard to catch on our crappy little camera. They are usually by accident and after I've taken about 30 pictures of her right after she smiles.

She loves to make this face where she scrunches up her lips.

Here she is in the pack and play. It's a little bit fuzzy and normally I would've erased this but her face is just too cute.

She did it again...almost

This morning me and my little baby love were laying in bed. I laid her down and laid beside her. She turned her little face to me and smiled her beautiful smile. I was laying on my side while she was laying on her back and suddenly she started turning on her side to get a better look at her mama! She was so close to turning over all the way! We stayed there playing and talking for a few minutes! She is the sweetest conversationalist! We talked about the dream that she had last night, how she wanted to take a walk in the park today, and tons of other mommy-daughter stuff!

Rainy Day = Picture Time

It's been a little rainy down here so Macyn and I have been hanging around the house which ultimately means picture time. I didn't dress her up or anything although I was tempted to whip out her wardrobe and play a little dress up. Maybe if it's rainy tomorrow we can have a little fashion show...

Here she is just hanging out!

My sweet little angel!

I don't know what kind of face she was making but her hair is sticking straight up!

She is lifting her head pretty well although not consistently. She usually tuckers out after about 2 seconds.

Bedtime

I am so proud of my little baby girl. She is starting to sleep a lot better at night. Last Wednesday after I put her down for the night, she slept 6 hours straight! The rest of the night she woke up every 2-3 hours. I thought it was just an accident because on Wednesday she was back to sleeping 2-3 hours but then on Friday she slept 7 hours straight! She's been sleeping 6-8 hours straight consistently over the past few days and I am sooo happy! Hopefully this continues. I will have to try it with her in the crib, so far it's been with me in the bed. Maybe that's why she sleeps for so long because she's with her mama! Hey, I'll take it!
She also rolled over again. This time she was with her papa. She was laying on his chest and just started rolling. Maybe the first time wasn't an accident! She's going to be crawling in no time!

My Baby Rolled Over!!!!

Unfortunately, I didn't get a picture of her starting out on her belly but I swear she was laying face down and then she just started to roll. She cried the whole time! I'm pretty sure this was an accident but I'm still excited and surprised that she could roll her little chubby butt over!!!
