March was very busy and simply went by too fast. At the beginning of the month we had a fun time seeing all the cousins at Ellie's Baptism. Macie was so excited to see Madi. She misses her between visits.
Two cute girls having a blast.
Sweet faces!
My sister had her baby girl on March 9th. It was a very exciting day. The kids loved being at the hospital and seeing the baby right after she was born. Her name is Brynlie Marie Hardy and she weighed 7lbs 11oz. Carter and Macie thought it was so exciting and they now can't stop talking about when we are going to have our own little baby come into our family.
Another trip to Boise for a checkup on little Macie Moo. She has been doing a lot better with her tummy problems but we still had to go see the specialist at least one more time. Unfortunately Dave couldn't come with us because of school and work so the kids and I packed the car and we were off. We had a lot of fun together. Dave and I decided to get me a hotel room in Twin on the way back home so that I didn't have to drive all the way there and back in one day. While in Twin Falls we stopped to look at the canyon. The kids thought it was very cool.
This turned out to be a very cute picture.
Silly faces!
Happy 3rd Birthday Macie!
Morning smiles from the Birthday Girl!
A room full of balloons.
The Birthday Princess.
Macie really wanted her birthday party at Leo's this year. She picked out her favorite outfit and a princess crown for the special day.
Dora is Macie's absolute favorite character right now. She had to have everything at her party be Dora.
She really loved her cake. She and I had a lot of fun decorating this one. I wasn't able to make the cake part this year because there was really a lot going on but we just bought a pre-made cake and put our own decorations on it.
She was so sweet all day long.
Present time was really fun too. She got really a lot of fun things from everyone. She was so cute when she was opening everything she would ask me to tell her who gave her each gift so she could tell them thank you after she opened it.
Carter was so excited to give Macie the card and present that he had picked out for her. I think the card was his favorite part for her to open because he drew a picture inside the card just for her she loved it. He was so proud. Carter is a great big brother. He loves Macie so much.
This was one of Macie's favorite things from her birthday this year. She had been wanting this doll for a long time and would have to carry it around in the store every time we went to Walmart. It is a very cute little doll that is sick and needs her mommy to take care of her and give her medicine. Macie is so good at taking care of her dolls. She is going to be a great big sister when Baby Landon arrives.
One very happy little Birthday Girl!
MANY trips to Salt Lake City!!!
Dave was scheduled to go to California after Macie's birthday so we took him down to Salt Lake City to fly out. The kids hated it. They missed him really bad. Macie got on the floor in the airport and laid on his foot with her arms around his leg. She was determined not to let him go. After he took off we headed back home. We were supposed to go back on Friday and pick him back up. Carter had a harder time than Macie that night when we got home. He was so sad that his daddy was not going to be sleeping at our house, that he couldn't go to sleep. I was a little nervous that we were going to have a really long week. Finally I had Carter say a little prayer especially for Daddy and for him to not feel sad and I remember that he specifically asked for his dad to come home really soon. Well, he finally got to sleep for the night and I crashed too. The next morning I woke up to a phone call from Dave. He was on his way home. His meeting in California was cancelled because there wasn't enough people who signed up for it. They just didn't bother to call and let him know before he flew all the way there. I think that it was cancelled because Carter needed his daddy home! So we headed back to Salt Lake that very day and decided to stay the night in a hotel because I was exhausted from all of the back and forth driving. We were able to make a little trip out of it too. The next day before we headed home we took the kids to the Aquarium. Carter, Macie and I have been to this Aquarium before but they really wanted their dad to go. It was really a lot of fun to have Dave share time like this with the kids.
Carter loved showing Dave the Sting Rays.
Carter was getting pretty brave at touching them. Macie still wasn't sure about it.
Cute Kids!
We were able to have a picture taken with all of us. What a fun couple of days.
