Masie Pictures

These pictures were taken right after she ate. She was wide awake, alert, and bright eyed! :)

She loves her WubbaNub (aka Lambie). She has the sweetest hands that refuse to stay swaddled and usually end up somewhere around her face...just like in some of her sonogram pics. Love those Elvis lips!

Practicing to be a cheerleader?! I laid her down to change her and she had a good ol' time talking and stretching and moving....then I opened her diaper. Oooooo-weeeee! :)

Road Trip!

Our trip to Lubbock the 20th was extra special because not only was it Masie's first road trip, but it was our first road trip as a legal family! She did so well during the drive. It did take a little longer than usual, of course. Normally, we can make it there in 5-5 1/2 hours. This trip it took about 7 hours. We had to stop for a feeding time once as well as a couple of diaper changes. Overall, it wasn't bad! Nana, Papa, and Katie were patiently awaiting our arrival...they couldn't get her out of the carseat fast enough! ;) Not too long after we got there, Aunt Kristi came out to give Masie some love, too. The next day was a special treat. Kristi, Patti, Betty, Angela, and Sue blessed our family with a baby shower/meet Masie party. Masie was a hit! Most everyone got to hold her and love on her. She loved every minute of it! In fact, the only time she cried was when I took her out of someone's arms! haha Her dress had come up in the back, and my cold hands touched her skin...she did not like that one bit! Other than that, she was a perfect angel. Many friends from different times of our lives were able to come meet Masie and celebrate this special time. She received many special gifts. Masie Lauren is one loved little girl! Sunday we went to church with Mom, Dad, Stacy, Heath, and Katie, then Dad had smoked a brisket for lunch afterward. Delicious!!! We didn't want to leave, but work and school waited for us back home on Monday. :( The tricky part was getting everything in the car. It was a bit cramped, but we did it!

Meeting cousin Katie for the first time

My BFF Kristi and our daughters! Kenzee is 10 years older than Masie.

Aunt Stacy and Masie. She made a bag FULL of bows like this in all different colors...including two Texas Tech bows and a Texas Rangers bow! SCORE!

This picture does not accurately show how full that car was!

We did not want to say goodbye to Nana and Papa!
