Growing Up!

I realize I haven't posted any pictures of Macie in a long time. She is finally looking more her age now that we can do different hairstyles. It's long enough for little ponytails and is super curly too. I think she is such a little beauty! I am her mom after all.

We see my parents off and on pretty sporadically. My mom was last here after traveling to Utah for her doctors' appointments earlier in the month. We're expecting to see them again this coming weekend. We usually don't know too far in advance when they're coming so it's always a nice surprise! Macie loves having more people around to play dress up and give her attention, as you can see. We have no shortage of princess accessories at our house.

What cute cousins! Macie and Sadie girl are quite the pair. Even though they are almost a year and a half apart in age they act like sisters. We are going to miss her when they move next month.

Check out those curly piggytails. I love it! We're still working on growing bangs, but at least short bangs are easy to work with.

We get to see my dad even more than my mom because he comes to Vegas for short business trips every now and then. We usually don't know until the week before, and he's usually only here for a day or two. Nonetheless it's still fun! He always gets a rental car when he comes and this last trip he drove up in a minivan. We were laughing about it until we put Macie's carseat in and had room for us all to fit comfortably. Macie was upset when we got to the restaurant because she thought he was taking us to his house. She was kicking and whining saying, "I want to go to Genoa!" Poor girl, she has no concept of distance.

I should have gotten a shot of the back of her head because a little water, gel and hairspray does wonders for Macie's curls in back. She definitely doesn't get the curly hair from me.

I love my silly Macie. I can't imagine life without my little goofy girl.
