2 months and growing...

Macie had her 2 month checkup today and had to get her first set of immunizations. It was so sad to see her get poked but she did awesome! She was so tired she only cried for a minute and then was out. What a trooper! I think it was harder on me than it was on her :)

She measured in at 11lbs 5oz (58%) and 23in (72%). Looks like she may have gotten daddy's height... let's hope so!


Here is a pic of her owies

The Most Beautiful Girl in the World!


I have a friend in my ward who took these amazing photos... She did such s good job and I'm so glad we have professional pics of Macie as a newborn. It's amazing how much she has already grown since these pics were taken. She was about 2 1/2 weeks when we took them. I just uploaded the whole album from photobucket because I didn't want to take the time and just pick our favorites and post those. Let's be honest though, they are all my favorites :) So sorry there are so many but it was just faster to do it this way :)

Happy 1 month!

Today Macie turned one month! I can't believe it's already been a month since our sweet little angle came to our family. We even celebrated with pazookies and sang happy birthday to her. :) I love making these little stepping stones a big deal. My friend gave me a pack of onesies that will fit her for a year and they come with stickers that you stick on the onesie so you can take a pic every month. So that's what she is wearing in the pic below. It'll be cool to have a picture of her in the same outfit every month for a year. 


She was two weeks in these pics. I was playing around one day with the camera and these are the pics I took. Definitely not professional but she gave me some cute expressions :) Thanks aunt Kayli for the cute headband! 

At her two week appointment, she weighed 8lbs 3oz and was 20in long. She's gotten even chunkier since then, it'll be fun to see what she weighs at her next appt. 



Finally Finished!

So we finally got Macie's room decorated. We still have a few small touches to add, but we're pretty much done! We did kind of a vintage bird theme. Let us know what you think!

Mom or Dad?

We compared our baby pictures to Macie's to see who she looks like. We think she's a good mix but we want to know what you think! It's been fun comparing her features to ours... like she has my mouth but Tyler's nose, or my eyes and Tyler's feet. Some days I can totally see me in her and other days she's all Tyler. We still can't get over how cute she is! So....

Mom

or Dad?
It would be fun to hear what you think!



Here are a few more pics of her we like...


She LOVES being wrapped like a burrito and sleeps so well this way. You can tell by this pic that she is out! She sleeps with her mouth open like this all the time, like her dad :)

Also Tyler made this video of Macie's birthday. It makes me cry every time I watch it, bringing back all the emotions of that day!

Our Sweet Macie

Macie Kae Broadbent was born Tuesday Feb 22, 2011 at 1:14pm. She weighed 7lbs 12oz and measured in at 20in long. We couldn't have imagined loving such a perfect little angel as much as we do. We are so lucky to have her in our family and are excited to watch her grow. More pictures will come... We are too busy staring at her and enjoying her :) That probably won't end though!

Here We Go!

Well... I better update the baby status before she gets here. Today is my last day of being pregnant! I went to my appointment last week and I haven't been progressing like my doctor wants me to so he decided to induce me. That and the fact the my family is here and my doctor is going out of town the day after my due date persuaded our decision to induce a couple of days early. So I go in tonight at 6pm to start the whole process! They are starting me on pitocin at 7am tomorrow morning so hopefully she will be here tomorrow! Wish me luck because I'm kind of freaking out right now. I am ready to be done with the whole thing and just have her here so I can hold her and love her.

My parents got here Saturday and Tyler's mom got here last night. It is so nice to have family here helping out and I'm glad they can share this whole experience with us. It just happened to work out that Baby Broadbent will be born on Grandma Broadbent's birthday... she's pretty excited and so are we.

I'm sure all you mom's can relate when I say that I have felt every emotion the last month getting ready to have a baby. It's so overwhelming at times thinking about how much our lives are going to change and what it really means to be a mom and raise one of Heavenly Father's children. It'll be a fun journey and I can't wait to see what's in store.

38 weeks... I'm about ready to pop! I posted this pic so you could see the bedding I made for her. It took way too long and if we have a boy next I'm pretty sure I'll be buying his bedding :)

Well I'm off... Next time I post I will be a mommy! Here we go!
