this afternoon we took macie to the outside pool for the first time. she surprisingly liked the cold water...i think she was also mezmorized by the pretty blue color of the water. last week she had her 4 month appointment and shots. i didn't notice any kind of reaction after her 2 month shots, but after her shots last week she ran a fever and acted fussy all day. it was the first time that we had to give her baby tylenol...poor girl. she has mostly recovered from the shots...just a small knot in her leg still left. she now weighs 14 lbs 13 oz...exactly double her birth weight. her height is in the 90th percentile and her weight is in the 75th. we are wondering if she will be tall like blake. the doctor also gave us the go-ahead to feed her rice cereal...that has been fun...i'll post pictures of that soon!
blake and i were given tickets to the women's college world series championship game last night. it was a perfect night. for someone who knows nothing about softball, it was actually fun to watch. macie had fun until the 4th inning when she realized that it was past her bed time. 
we took macie on her first road trip this past weekend to clovis, nm. my granny lives out there and all of my aunts and uncles on my mom's side were there for the weekend. my aunt debbie gave my granny the name "granny great" for all of her great-grandkids to call her. macie was on her best behavior and only cried for a little while in the car on the way out and on the way back. she also went swimming for the first time...the pool was too cold for her, but she loved swimming in the hot tub...she thought it was just a big bath!
