My BABY is 4 Months....

Look at this little CHEESER of mine:) I can't believe she is already 4 months old. Where does the time go? I am loving this age. Mackie is starting to get her own little personality. She giggles, loves playing peek-a-boo, slobbers, snuggles, always wants to be held & is so much fun. Anytime somebody sings to her she laughs...she thinks it's so funny! She also loves her hands n' feet. Her hands are always in her mouth. Lately everytime she drinks her bottle...she sucks on her thumb too. I think it's adorable (Ryan...not so much he he) WE LOVE THIS GIRLY OF OURS!!!

Pure Amazement...

Isn't it crazy how you go from being completely, deeply, utterly in LOVE & thinking that nothing in this world could make you any happier to....

 Wanting to REPRODUCE so you can get this result...

 So you can eventually look like THIS...

 And THIS...

 And finally after all the effort & pain you get THIS :)

 The GREATEST BLESSING of all-time... A BABY!!!! A special kind of love & bond that cant be explained & will last FOREVER!!

WOW....

Our Little Girl Has Arrived...

Mackie Jo Haney

7lbs 6oz...21 in.

We are so happy our little girl has finally arrived. The labor went really well. I was so blessed to have a quick & safe delivery. On Saturday April 10th I started having contractions around 1:00 p.m. We headed to the hospital at 3:30 pm & I was already dialated to a 7. At 8:11 pm we welcomed our baby girl into our family. We are so blessed!! She is PERFECT!!

GIVEAWAY...!!!

My first giveaway! The first 3 people to respond to this post will get something made by me! My choice. For YOU! I saw this on a blog and I thought, "humm, in my attempt at being a better person, why not do a little service for friends and loved ones." This is going to be fun and I can't wait to start some new projects. It must be something to do with almost being spring because once the sun comes out I all of the sudden get this huge urge to take on tons of new projects. This offer does have some restrictions and limitations: 1. I make no guarantees that you will like what I make! 2. What I create will be just for you. 3. It'll be done this year. Hopefully sooner than later. 4. You have no clue what it's going to be. It may be sewn, painted, written, scrapbooky, or be something totally random that I come up with on a whim. I may even bake you something and mail it to you. Who knows? Not you, that's for sure! 5. I reserve the right to do something extremely strange. The catch? Oh, the catch is that you must re-post this on your blog and offer the same to the first 1-3 people who do the same on your blog. Let's spread some love! So, the first 3 people to do so and leave a comment telling me they are doing it too win a FAB-U-LOUS homemade gift by me! (I know...that could either be cool or scary) Who knows! :)Be sure to post pictures of what you won when you recieve it! :) I thought this sounded like a pretty neat idea!

FAMILY...

Don't mind my CHUBBINESS:)...Even though it was a bad way to get family together...I'm so grateful that we all had the chance to spend some quality time together. My family is the GREATEST & I had so much fun while they were here. Here's a list of things we did together:

1- I cut my grandmas hair...I gave her an a-line & it's absolutely adorable on her.

2- I dyed Jenna's hair- there's never a dull moment with this girl. We have so much fun together...

3- I had a birthday lunch with the FAM @ Sushi-Ya (oh how I love that place....YUMMY) Thanks Jamie

4- I had 3 bowls of the best ham n bean soup in this WORLD...Thanks Grams.

5- Ry & I got to hear what my family thought of some of the names we have picked out...it was a very interesting conversation w/ about 20 of us.

6- I went to the beauty supply store with my Aunt Terry & got to spend some quality time with her. I also got to have a nice, long conversation with my Uncle Kenny. It always takes a LONG conversation to catch up.

7- A bunch of family members got to feel my little bundle of joy squirm around & kick.

8- I wish my sisters could have been here for all of this.

Last but not least....GOOD BYES. I dread it, & avoid it as much as possible. It is never fun saying goodbye especially when you don't know when the next time you'll see eachother will be, but I survived & will miss each & everyone who had to leave. I can't wait to see you again.

Our usual selves (Jenna & I)

I will miss this man. I will miss our talks. (G-pa & me)

Isn't she the sweetest. I will miss you Grams!!

Birthday Bash w/ the GIRLS....

I have the greatest friends EVER!!! Thanks Girls...I had a BLAST (minus the part where they placed the sombrero on my head & shoved whipped cream in my face TWICE)

Ash, Me, Amber, & Leti @ La Fiesta

I love this GIRL.....

28 weeks...

I know that I am 31 weeks, but I thought I'd post this picture my mom took of me at 28 weeks... I just can't wait till this little girl arrives!

Proof Part 2...

Here's proof that we made these blankets (for those family members who questioned us).

Doesn't he look so EXCITED??

Here's my DAD making Krewster's blanket...

Here's MOM makin Brandi's blanket...this is her "I hate threading needles" look!

PROOF...Part 1

I know that I am posting this way late, but I had to provide proof that my wonderful MAMASITA made these. My mom has an "M&M Snowman" that her mother made her. My sisters & I love this Christmas decoration. It's a tradition & it means a lot. This year for Christmas we had to make all of our gifts & this is one of the gifts my mother made us. Thanks MOM...We ALL love HIM!

Finished product with M&Ms...
