state fair

we went to the fair today after church with our friends, kenny and sara. macie missed her morning nap so she was a little fussy. she wouldn't sleep in her stroller so we took turns carrying her while she slept...my arms are going to be sore tomorrow! she did perk up for the baby chicks and pigs. i'm embarrassed to say that between blake and i we ate a pork sandwich, a philly steak sandwich, corn on the cob, strawberry lemonade, a corn dog, candied pecans, fried cheese and cinnamon rolls! we will have to get back to our healthy diet tomorrow!

remote control

macie loves the remote control. in fact, she has learned how to crawl thanks to the remote. we will set it across the room and she will find a way to get over to it. the past few weeks she has belly crawled to it, but just yesterday she figured out how to crawl on her knees. i can't believe my baby is already crawling!

football season

it could be a sad season for the football fans in this house....our mcloud redskins and the sooners both lost this weekend!

memaw, grammie & grandpa

macie sure loves her grandparents!

toby keith's

last weekend blake's band played at toby keith's restaurant in bricktown. macie lasted through the first set and then let me know that she was ready to go home and go to bed!

happy girl

macie is such a happy girl. we are having so much fun with her at this stage. she loves to smile and laugh and make new friends. one of her favorite things to do is roll over...we put her on the floor and she will make it across the living room in a matter of minutes. i can't imagine how i am going to keep up with her when she starts crawling!

summer's over

well, summer is officially over for us. i went back to work monday and the kids came back wednesday. macie started with her new babysitter, jamie, who is a coaches' wife from school. macie seems very happy...i don't think she even realizes that i'm away from her all day. jamie drives a bus and meets me in front of my school every morning after her bus route to pick up macie and then brings her back about 10 minutes before school is out. blake has an office aide go get her and play with her for the last 10 minutes of the day. she ends up getting passed around and makes lots of new friends. i have had a good but crazy week. i think i still have pregnancy brain because i have made lots of silly mistakes this week. hopefully i will get into the swing of things soon. i do have a student teacher, kat, this semester which is going to be so nice. she's only been there for 3 days and i'm already attached to her! so, wish us all luck for a great semester...me, blake, macie, jamie, kat, and all the students!
