Our future linebacker


Mac went in for his 15-month appointment last week and (no surprise) he's HUGE! He now weighs 30 lbs. and is 33 1/2" tall. Needless to say, he's in the 100th percentile for his age (overachiever!) I asked the doctor if he was fat and his exact words were, "Nooooo....he's just...a BIG boy." Then Dan and the doctor proceeded to spend the next 15 minutes discussing where Mac is going to college to play football.

Other than that, Mac is doing great. He's not talking just yet, but is really into pointing at things and having us name them. He's also into mimicking all sorts of noises, which is hilarious. Last weekend we went to visit my parents and Papa showed him how to make the "monkey noise." Mac has been practicing ever since.

Wish I had lots to report but Dan is busy with work and school and I'm busy wrapping up Week 32 of my pregnancy. The first two trimesters seemed to last forever but now time is flying. I can't believe our little girl will be here so soon! We're so excited for Mac to have a sibling. The poor guy has been trying to make friends every time we take him outside so I'm hoping the addition of his sister will be a welcome surprise. Especially since they're going to be sharing a room (sigh!)
