the happy and sad amaryllis

My Dad gave us a couple amaryllis flowers. These are perfect flowers for the impatient (i.e. me) They grow super fast.
This is a picture of Jens:
The one on the left is MJs- not quite as happy.

Goodbye Hello Kitty

So some things have slipped by me lately- I am sure I have a good excuse somewhere.
Meet MJs favorite shoes. She loves them and wears them as much as possible.
When I picked her up from school I noticed her shoes as she was running in front of me.
She was actually very big girl about giving them up- phew!

Little Mac gets a bath

At a week old Mac got his first bath. He didn't seem to mind, and made some pretty funny faces. There were lots of helps too (Me, Mark, MJ, Jens, A'mooh, Sam)

Macade Jeffrey!!!

Macade Jeffrey came to us on Wed. 2/10/2010 at 1030am. (9 days early, and I was soo happy) He weighed 8.1 pounds (the exact same as BOTH his sisters) and was 20.5 inches long.

He has had a great first week. He is very good- very mellow and doesn't mind the screams of his sisters.
Look at his super cute dimples :)






Because of H1N1 the girls we not able to come to the hospital . . . or so i thought. My Dad was able to sneak Jens in for a few minutes. Unfortunately it was when they were giving Macade a bath, so she didn't get to see him, but I was sure happy to see her.
So this is the first time the girls met little Mac. Jens kept saying "cute cute cute" Maissie just smiled at him.

Great Grandma Kathryn came to see the new little guy. So did Uncle Clark, Uncle Arthur, and Uncle Colin.
We are so happy he his here with us!!
