She's Here!

Maci Jayde was born on 7/28 at 2:00 pm. She is absolutely perfect if you ask me! She was 6 pounds 10 ounces and 19 inches long. Her features are so tiny she only fits in preemie clothes. This is a picture of her with the smallest newborn shirt we have lying on top of her....a little too big :)

This is one of the pictures we had taken at the hospital. I can't show the best one yet because it is going out in announcements :) Funny faces

First time with a pacifier.

11 More Days!

Well if I don't have this baby by the 28th, the doctor is breaking my water. My due date is not until Aug. 7th but I am having constant contractions and there has been some concern about how this is affecting her heartbeat. I can't believe we have a maximum of 11 days before we meet her. I wonder if she will look like Skylar. The ultrasound showed she had hair. Skylar had a lot of hair. We just bought a Flip camera and I love it. Here's my first flip video clip. I love when Skylar makes her cute little faces.

This is pretty funny. Jordan has started saying "chocolate" all the time. He yells it in public whenever he sees anything chocolate, but as you will see it does not exactly sound like the word chocolate when he says it. This is going to get embarrasing, but it's also pretty hilarious :)

Happy 4th of July

We spend every 4th of July at my grandparents' house, swimming and having fun with the family. It's crazy to think that this will be our last holiday without little Maci. I can't wait to meet her! How cool are these kids?

My little man

Poor Bella is getting her first tooth and she is not happy about it!

My kiddos with my cousin's son Seth. Getting 3 two year-olds to look at the camera at the same time is near impossible :)

First time wearing floaties. They didn't last long for Skylar. She doesn't want to swim by herself yet.

Swimming with Daddy.

Jordan is our little fish. He will stay in the water shivering and cry when you make him get out. Here he is playing with my dad. My dad went with us to Vietnam when we picked him up and they have always had such a special bond. He definitely loves his grandpa!

Jordan's very first time floating by himself in the water. He was so proud.

I caught my kids pretending to be babies with their cousin Bella's toys. This could be a bad sign :)

All the other kids were afraid of the fireworks. Skylar was the only one who stayed outside and watched. She was so happy that everyone kept telling her how brave she was.

Jordan watched the fireworks from a window inside. My mom finally got him onto the porch, but it didn't last long. He actually did a lot better than I thought he would though.

Really Late Father's Day Pics

I have been so lazy with my blog lately. Here's some pictures from Father's Day. Better late than never right?
