Baccalaureate

Monday, May 17, 2010

After church yesterday, Dustin and I drove to Booneville for Kaci's Baccalaureate


Kaci is in the doorway waiting to walk down
It was a nice service.. short, sweet, and to the point!



Duff, Kaci, and Mom


Kaci and I
She should not be old enough to graduate!


After Baccalaureate, we went to my parents house.
My Grandma Linda is in town from Florida to see Kaci graduate -
So she says - We think she really just wanted an excuse to see Mackenzie! :)
We had steak, shrimp, pasta salad and grilled veggies...
Here is Kaci teasing Mackenzie with Strawberry Pizza!


Last night was such a good night for TV!
After dinner we watched Miss USA Pageant, Survivor and Desperate Housewives.
I had to DVR Army Wives.

I really did not like Russell on Survivor... But it was really worth him making it to the end and not getting a single vote to win!!

Busy Weekend

Saturday, May 15, 2010

On Thursday, we went to Booneville to visit everyone!
I picked up Memaw and met Kaci at the nursing home...
Memaw got to see all her old nurses and friends

On our way back to Memaws, mom called and said Uncle Doogey and Aunt Pat were in town visiting... They met us at Memaw's house. Here is Aunt Pat and Mackenzie.


My sister, Hannah, came by too!
Here is Mackenzie and her Aunt Hannah


My sweet Memaw and Mackenzie


Today I went to a Pampered Chef party that Cassen was hosting, then Kaci and I drove to Russellville for Techs graduation.. Andie and Emily are on that back row!! I am so happy for them! They both majored in Early Childhood Education!


After graduation, Kaci and I went to visit Monica and Adyson! Monica and I did Oil and Gas together and I miss her so much!!!! Here is Adyson and Mackenzie..


Adyson is getting a new baby sister!! She was so sweet with Mackenzie.. she kept saying "Shh..Its okay." She is going to be such a great big sissy! She told me she was going to help mommy with dirty diapers until she witnessed just how dirty M's diaper was! haha! Adyson was very interested in the fact that I nurse Mackenzie...I hope Monica didn't have too much explaining to do tonight!


M was pretty fussy on the way home, so Kaci was rubbing her face from the passenger seat... Mackenzie grabbed her finger and put it in her mouth! I really do think we have a tooth coming in on the bottom.. I know that sounds crazy but it has been there for two and a half weeks now!


We had bath time and soon as we got home tonight! We LOVE bath time!
She looks so cute in her duck towel!

Tomorrow we are going to Kaci's Baccalaureate after church -
I cannot believe my baby sister is about to graduate!
I hope everyone has a great weekend!

Pretty Day

Wednesday, May 12, 2010

Today, Mackenzie and I lounged around the house!

While she napped, I worked on some crafts that I am doing for a couple of friends! It is a surprise and I can't wait to give it to them!


My mom and Memaw came to Greenwood to get their nails done, so they came over when they were finished. Dustin, Mackenzie and I loaded up with them and went to dinner at La Fiesta! After dinner we went for a walk around the neighborhood...I needed to return some dishes to some girls who had brought us dinner after having Mackenzie. It has been such a blessing to receive these church meals!


She wasn't as excited to get out of the house as I was!


It was pretty windy outside, but it felt so great! We watched Criminal Minds when we got home.... Kelly from Kelly's Korner was at my church today guest speaking for MOPS! I cannot believe I missed it! :( Maybe I'll see her at a Razorback game this fall! :)

First Mother's Day

Sunday, May 09, 2010

Today, I celebrated my very first Mother's Day!


This morning, we got up and went to church...It was Mackenzie's very first time to go to the nursery! She was in there with her sweet cousin Eli.

Here is Eli with his Razorback hat on! He LOVES watching Elmo! His dad did an awesome job preaching today on marriage! I always love getting to hear Chris speak. There is Mackenzie's Granny behind Eli....Happy Mother's Day Geri!!

After eating lunch and visiting with Dustin's family, we went to my parents house! Kaci and I got mom a cute pair of Yellow Box flip flops, and Hannah got her a new Pandora bracelet! We watched The Amazing Race finale and ate skillet cookies! Mackenzie now has a swing at my parents and she loves it!! Maybe we should invest in one!

NeNe and KayKay playing in the floor with M

I just love her!!

Mackenzie and NeNe just hanging out!
Her NeNe likes to spoil her with warm towels fresh out of the dryer!
Happy Mother's Day Mom!
I had such a great first Mother's Day! I cannot believe that my little girl is already a month old today! She is growing so fast! I never thought that I could love someone as much as I love this sweet baby! Mackenzie, you are such a blessing to me! I cannot imagine life without you! I sit and wonder what I ever did without you! I prayed everyday that I was pregnant with you, and when we were in the NICU I found myself begging God to let you be healthy! I will continue to pray that you will become the strong woman that He wants you to be! You are such a blessing and I am so thankful for you! I love you soo much!!

We were supposed to have her one month check up tomorrow, but our Pediatrician had a family emergency. She called to let us know that she would not be there tomorrow and we would have to come in sometime next week. I can't wait to see what all your measurements are! I hope everyone had an Amazing Mother's Day!!

Concerts and Birthdays

Last night we picked my mom and Memaw up and went to Kaci's Strings Concert.


She did so great! This was the first time we got to see her play..
Jack and Diane was my favorite!


Kaci and Mackenzie after the concert..
M is wearing a dress that KayKay got her!



Today is Duffy's Birthday!! I hope he has such a great day! I don't know what I would do without him! Dustin, Mackenzie, and I are going to have dinner and dessert with him, Mom, and Kaci tonight! We are having his favorite...brownies with icing! Yumm!

Razorback Baseball

Sunday, May 02, 2010

Yesterday we went to the Razorback baseball game for my dads birthday.
It was Mackenzie's first Arkansas game!!


Here is Mackenzie on the way up 'the Hill'



All dressed up in her Razorback gear from Miss Shannon!



Me and Aunt KayKay at the game! I don't know how I would have made it through this game without her! The first time to change Mackenzie in a public bathroom and first time to nurse in public -- I definitely needed help!



We played Auburn and lost 8-7. It was a great game! After the game we drove over to AQ Chicken. Also, a first for Miss Mackenzie. She let everyone know that she was there with her fit that she threw! The food was sooo good! Then we headed over to the Promenade in Rogers and Kaci got her very first Coach purse as a graduation gift from mom and Duff! It is so precious! We all had such a great time celebrating Duffy's birthday! He is the best dad a girl could ask for!



Here is our lab, Reese, before we went to the game. She is having to live outside now and I feel so guilty about that! She figured out she could jump on our patio table to see in the back door. Those puppy dog eyes kill me every time! Today, Mackenzie and I went with mom and Kaci to Emily's wedding shower. It was such a nice shower! They got a ton of really great gifts! It was nice to see all my girlfriends!
