So today Jill got to go to work and I got to take care of Mac. This will probably become more normal as Jill goes back to school, but today it is different. I cannot say I was that surprised though with how things went. Jill has prepared me fairly well for a 4 month [...]

Jeremy took the lead with Mac today as I was attending the conference most of the day. He said Mac did well, took two pretty good naps and ate well too. Hopefully Jeremy will post a thing or two about his take on this little vacation… Jeremy even said he’d watch Mac while I go [...]

Mac did really well last night. He went to sleep around 8:00 and we didn’t hear him until 5! Our make-shift bed worked wonderfully. He didn’t move around very much either – probably because the bed is too soft – so that made things easier for us. Hopefully we’ll have a crib for tonight, but [...]

We made it without too much trouble to San Antonio. I am very glad I did my “homework” preparing and thinking out this trip. It really paid off. Mac had an hour nap and ate before we left, so by his schedule I expected him to be hungry right about the time our flight would [...]

Now that we’ve had four and a half months of packing Mac up to take him out for a few hours or the whole day, we are packing him up for a 5-day trip. We are all going to San Antonio from Sunday until Thursday for my national conference. We are taking advantage of my [...]

Mac is really on the move these days. He’s not crawling yet, but he’s scooting and rolling so much that we can’t let him play on the floor without watching him every minute now. It was recommended that we work on sitting up more, so he can learn to control his back muscles and start [...]

Mac continues to change daily. Over the last couple of weeks, Mac has started to play with his toys much more and enjoy mirrors (he especially loves the one Grandma gave him that goes in his crib). It takes a little longer for his to go to sleep in his swing now, since he likes [...]

Mac had his 4-month well-baby check-up today. He measured 25 inches long (75th percentile) and weighed 15 pounds, 9 ounces (also 75th percentile). His head is 17 inches around (75th percentile). The doctor was surprised to see how big he had grown after all the concern early on. He is ahead of the norm for [...]

I got this envelope in the mail with a postage-due priority mail envelope: The postage due is 20¢, yet the envelope is postage paid, which I know probably isn’t the full 41¢ of a first-class stamp, but still… I also understand that they can’t let all postage-due packages through, but this just seems ridiculous to [...]
Mac | June 9, 2008
It was finally nice enough to go to the pool today! I rested up in the morning (I took a 2-hour nap and almost forgot I was supposed to be hungry), then Mommy got me dressed with my new swim diaper, hat, shirt and trunks. She loaded up some other stuff too, I think. We [...]
