a little glimpse.....







Okay...I know it has been way too long since my post...forgive me Lindz:) Things have been a bit crazy so it hasn't allowed for much time with the camera or blogging:( I hate when I go for a stretch without picking up the camera--it just reminds me of how quickly time is passing and how much Mac is changing.

Mac is doing great---he is full of life and ALL boy. The conversations that I have with him on a daily basis are a trip. He is so funny--definitely takes after his daddy. An example from this past weekend.

M: why are we getting baby stuff at target?
Me: mommy is going to a baby shower tomorrow for mrs. mariah
(after a few moments of thinking)
M: so, the baby is going to take a shower with his mrs. mariah tomorrow?
Me: umm...no....a baby shower is like a baby party.
M: why did you say shower? you must have said the wrong word.


The weather has been a little weird here lately, but when it is nice we are outside as much as possible. I do everything I can to try and wear that boy out. Usually it just ends up with me being worn out and needing a cup of coffee. He loves riding his gator. He calls it his gatorade. He can whip that thing all around the yard...usually he is going on a "trip". He always tells me he is going to Alabama, he will call me when he gets there, and picks me up a sweet tea before he leaves:) A man after my own heart.

He is oh so sweet too. He will just randomly come up to me and tell me he loves me and gives me a hug. The other night I was putting him to bed and after I tucked him in (and sang Jesus loves me 10 times) he grabbed my hand, kissed it, and told me he was thankful for me. I just melted into a puddle on the floor. He has such a sweet spirit and I love seeing how that comes out. As sweet as he is, he is equally trouble. He is going to grow up to be an engineer or a great defense attorney. He wrote the book on 3 year old manipulation:) Charlie and I have to be so careful how we explain things, b/c the next thing you know, he is using it against you! How in the world does he do that?!?!

He is getting to be so big and such a little man. Everyday is an adventure and I am learning how to embrace the challenges and cherish all the little moments.

Oh how we love our Mackers! :) I know I see him regularly, but I still can't get over how OLD he looks in these pictures! Where did our babies go, Sara?

Love love LOVE the baby shower story. And tell Mac he can bring a sweet tea over to Miss Kirstin on any of his trips anytime he'd like!
