One Month Old!

Macie is happy to be one month old today! We have been LOVING the smiles we get to see! She continues to be such a happy, content baby. Her fussy time is usually in the evening, and then she gets up a couple times at night to eat, but during the day she just sleeps and is happy when awake. Ethan continues to be crazy about his baby sister. He loves to give her kisses and hugs - can you blame him? She has such a kissable face - although she has broken out with her baby acne - poor thing - it's on the side of her head and all through her hair . . .
Yesterday I decided to get brave and take both kids to the Indoor Sports Center by myself. Since we got the double stroller, the outing seemed more possible for me to do alone. 3 mornings a week they have a "family fun zone" which is mostly toddlers and their moms. They have lots of fun things for the kiddos to do, and the best part is that it's a wide open space where they can just run around.
We spent 2 hours there, and by the end, Ethan was very tired and ready to go - but he had a blast! In the picture above, he is rolling around this big black inflatable thing which he loved!

Below, he figured out how to climb up the inflatable slide - unfortunately, he didn't realize he was supposed to slide down the other side, and kept sliding down the climbing side - apparently he didn't notice the arrows pointing up!
They had just one planned activity which was the parachute. Ethan LOVED it, but had a hard time following directions when he needed to get OFF the parachute, so mom had to run out there and retrieve him a few times . . .
Overall, it was a successful trip and I will definitely do it again. Macie just slept the whole time and I had her out there in the stroller so I could follow Ethan around with her. It's a good way to make the morning fly by - by the time we got home it was lunch and nap time - for the kids and MOM!
