My Mac

I just wanted to share this sweet picture of our little guy. In the past few days, 2 teeth have cut through on the bottom front. I love it!

Downstairs hardwood and bathroom tiles

Hardwoods and countertops
This is NOT our house, but the same brick and trim.

Compass Lake

aunt Beth
aunt Krystal
Mac with the Jackson "lazy eyes"
Mac and Daddy

Chace Lake


We've made our reservation at Chace Lake and we've been to our first meeting (plan review). Now they will be laying the foundation probably within a month. We're so excited and will be even more excited after April 17th when we close on the sale of our condo. We're moving in with Gabe and Jaime, well mostly Jaime. Gabe will be doing a job down in the Mobile area for about 6 months so it works out well that we can be with Jaime while he's gone. We'll live with them for about 3 months while our house is being built. Hopefully by Mac's 1st birthday (August 6), we'll be settled in our new house! We never thought we'd build, but we can't wait to be in our first NEW house!

To Granny's house we go...

Granny, Mom, & Big Mac
Liz
Aunt Nancy
They must be having a good conversation here.
Instant bond


We had a fantastic time visiting Mom's family in Ft. Walton Beach, FL. We got to visit with Granny, Aunt Nancy, Aunt Patty, Alison, Karena, and Stephen. I wish we could have stayed a few more days!

We found out some great news today that Liz is having a baby girl! They are thinking about naming her Charlotte and calling her "Lottie". I love it! I can't wait to meet her!

Random Thoughts/Facts

No this is not another questionnaire. This is purely me responding to boredom/procrastinating...

  1. I'm still in my pajamas. Thank you for contributing to my unkemptness Mac. 
  2. Mac, on the other hand has been bathed, lotioned up, and in a new outfit.
  3. I have rekindled my love with Cheese Curls.
  4. Mac loves to play with my phone. Two seconds ago I heard something coming from it. After I found it underneath him, I found the person on the other end to be Spanish. 
  5. We accepted an offer on our condo! God willing, we'll be out of here by mid April, and maybe in with Gabe & Jaime for a few months.
  6. And God willing, we'll be in our newly built house in Chace Lake by July. 
  7. I am so thankful for Mac's new toy, "the jumpy thing". He has really enjoyed it. It's loud, but will entertain him for about 20 minutes. 
  8. I am so looking forward to being an aunt. Liz and Rod find out their baby's gender March 9th! 
  9. Mac has discovered a new sound... Screaming! He loves to hear himself do it. 
  10. If I started listing all the things that are going on in my brain about our new house and planning, I'd lose you, so just know that's what mainly flying around in there. 
  11. On that same point, I've really been trying to not let myself get consumed by it and focus on more important things (like prayer, reading the bible daily, etc). 
  12. Ok that's enough for now. It's time to go make Mac's mid afternoon meal. 
Most of this was about Mac, but I guess that's no surprise. He is a HUGE part of my life.
