Today, just before naptime, while she was eating, she did it again. She had been soooo fussy, just before we gave her a piece of cheese and some raisins. She didn't quite make it through the box of raisins. Make sure you don't miss the first few seconds, while she's still awake...hilarious!

Sleepyhead
I always wanted a baby who feel asleep at the dinner table or in their high chair. Jadon has still never done that. Thankfully, Miss Macy Bleu is making up for it. She feel asleep a few months back, just as soon as she finished her lunch. Jamie took her plate to wash it off, and turned around to find her like this:

Happy Birthday, Cupcake!
We celebrated Macy's birthday on Saturday night at Gramma and Grandpa's house. It was a very simple celebration...we didn't even have a candle this time. Sorry, Bleubelle. Jadon and Gramma did make you the most super yummy chocolate cupcakes, and you were the sweetest, singing along with Mama. I love these days, when my babies are little :)
Best Snow Day EVER!
Jamie is the biggest skeptic, when it comes to hearing there's a chance of snow here at the beach. We kind of just heard in passing that we may see some accumulation last Friday, but then we saw it was a bigger deal than we first realized. Holy heck! Myrtle Beach was expecting 4-6" of snow by Saturday morning!?! So much that the organizers were thinking of canceling the MB Marathon, and by 10pm made the decision to do so. Wow!
Around midnight, our yard was covered with about 2". An hour later, as Jamie was on his way outside to check things out firsthand, Jadon woke up crying, so Jamie took him outside (yes at 1am!) to make his first snowball. Of course, Macy woke up around that same time, so we took her out to experience her first taste of snow too.
I could watch these two clips over and over and laugh everytime! Jadon cracks. me. up! You'll hear Mackenzie giggling with me too. We laughed so hard we were crying!

We had heard the last time it snowed enough to see accumulation at the beach was something like 1989, so we made the decision then to get up at 6am to try to catch the sunrise on the snow-covered sand. Soooo thankful we did! If you haven't seen the pics on my photography blog, click here to go to the CoCo Bleu website.
You like Macy's outfit? So Punky Brewster-ish ;) That's what happens when you race out the door to catch a sunrise. That's Jadon's old sweat jacket, her Christmas candy PJs and Gramma's scarf she has on hehe
Sweet Eskimo baby :)
I'm so thankful that I woke Mackenzie up to have her tag along with us! After we took these pics at the beach, she drove me around to snap all of the ones on my CoCo Bleu site, while Gramma, Grandpa, and Daddy took the babies back home to have breakfast. We all agreed it was one of the BEST days any of us had had in a long time (and we have some great days with these sweet babies!). After you see these pics and hilariously adorable video clips below, you'll understand why :) I'l cherish the memories we made with Jadon this day forever! Love you, Jadon James, you silly boy, you!
Snowball fight!
Ready to go inside...until...
...he realized Daddy was trying to hit Mama and Sister through the window.
He laughs at anything devious, especially when it involves Macy!
I could watch these two clips over and over and laugh everytime! Jadon cracks. me. up! You'll hear Mackenzie giggling with me too. We laughed so hard we were crying!Thankful for the snow. Thankful for my sweet babies and husband. Thankful for family and Mackenzie who shared in the fun.Thankful that in SC, the snowmen and all evidence of snow are gone by noon...seriously! :)

Birthday Princess, Ice Cream Queen
We haven't truly celebrated Macy's 1st birthday yet. Auntie Em had to be in Atlanta for her friend's baby shower, so we're waiting until next weekend. We did, however, want to do something special for our birthday princess, so we dressed her up and gave her her first ice cream cone :)
Lights my world pink!
You have to love a smile so big that your eyes get a little Chinese :D
1st taste...
To say she only liked it a little...
would be a bold face lie! 
As Jadon says, everytime Macy eats a meal, "Ahhh, she needs a BAFF!" (that makes me smile, even though I hear him say it every, single day!) I love my kids!
Jadon ate his so fast, when I turned around from taking pics of Macy, I thought he surely had dropped his cone somewhere. Nope! He had already eaten every bite! :)
The balloon from Gramma and Grandpa was a HUGE hit with both of them.
So much so that we had to put it away today, otherwise, Jadon was going to keep testing our sanity ;)
We can't wait to blow out the candle (singular!) next weekend with you, Bleubelle! Love you sooooo soooo soooo soooo MUCH! Muah!

Out of Nowhere
Our sweet, little baby became a toddler. Oh my is she sweet! She's cuddly and smiley, loves music, singing, dancing, and exploring EVERYTHING! She can identify so many things now, I cannot keep up! Here are a few off the top of my head: glasses (she pretends to put them on...sooo cute!), fan, star, circle, Elmo "EhMO", all close family members, ball, signs "more" and "milk," knows where her belly and mouth are, LOVES saying and watching all things FISH ("isssh"). She will tell Jadon off (in the form of yelling or tackling him), the second he pushes the limits with her...cracks us up everytime! She is AWESOME at playing peek-a-boo, though she doesn't cover her eyes with her hands...she covers her ears ahahah over and over. It is soooo adorable!
She LOVES reading (especially "Please, Baby, Please"). She can sit for 15 minutes straight and listen to books. Seriously, loves it! She blows kisses. She tries to say shoes. She went from walking like Frankenstein with her arms out to almost running within the last two weeks. She LOVES to eat...anything you put in front of her, but she's a tiny thing at just 18lbs. She was weaned about 10 days before her birthday. She is now soley drinking whole milk. She is a one nap a day kind of gal, and has been for a very long time. It's okay because she generally naps at the same time as Jadon (Read: BREAK TIME for Mama!)
She has started going on short outings with her daddy: Target, the bank, grocery store, and has hung out with Gramma and Grandpa for several hours at a time. This is HUGE stuff for this little mama's girl! Hmmm...all I can think of for now, but here are some video clips, so you can see how sweet she is for yourself :)
Out of nowhere, our baby girl became a toddler :/ Goodness, where did the time go?

Fridays with Friends
On Friday evenings, Jadon's buddy Ashton (and sometimes his sister Ary) come to stay for about four hours. Jadon is always soooo excited to have friends over...a little too excited for me and Jamie most times, but we do our best to re-direct. Have I mentioned how thankful I am that Macy was a girl? I cannot imagine having two rambunctious boys so close in age. Holy moly! They're cute though...four hours at a time :)
This last Friday, Gramma and Grandpa came over to help us with the house-full of kiddos. That is what you came to do, right Grandpa?

Double-Edge Sword
Even though I've been on a bit of a blogging break, my parenting duties continued ;) Jadon has been doing so well with his memory verses, and I actually look forward to Thursday nights, when we learn a new one. Thursdays? Well, that's just the day we started, so that's how we're rolling right now.
Here is a video I took of him tonight, just before we learned our 4th verse. I've listed the scriptures below, just in case you can't understand him clearly.
"How awesome is the Lord Most High." ~Psalm 47:2
"On my bed, I remember You. I think of You through the watches of the night." ~Psalm 63:6
"God created the Heavens and the earth." ~Genesis 1:1
Jadon likes to add "and God created the moon" to the last one :) We're working on (1) the fact that God created everything, including Jadon and Macy and (2) the fact that everything is His (so we have to share toys because toys really aren't yours anyway...face it, when you die, nothing's going with you). Big lessons for such a little boy, huh? Big issues for Jamie and me to guide him through. I have to say though that the spirtual training is BY FAR my favorite part of this mama gig. Breastfeeding? Blah. Potty training? No thanks. Teaching my babies to love and rely on Jesus? Yes. More. Please :)
"These commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. Write them on the door-frames of your houses and on your gates." ~~~Deuteronomy 6:6-9
These are not mere words Jadon is memorizing. This is his sword to carry with him throughtout his entire life.
"For the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart." ~~~Hebrews 4:12
Life is hard. He's gonna need it. Amen?
