Macey Is A Whole Hand!

Macey is the big 5 today! I can't hardly believe it! I know I keep saying this in recent posts but time sure does fly! I remember back 5 years ago when I was begging the doctors to PLEASE induce me! I was done being prego! I remember at 37 weeks I went in and they said she was weighing around 9 pounds! I was a little scared, but they wouldn't induce me till 38 weeks. So I had one of the longest weeks of my life waiting for our little baby! She was born at 38 weeks and weighed in at 9lbs 2oz! I was so glad I made them induce me! Macey was the only baby that we did not find out if she was a boy or girl. I'm not sure why we didn't with her, but we didn't! Everyone thought we were having a boy, but I KNEW we were having a girl! It's crazy how a mom just knows! Rodger picked her name and I think it fits very nicely! She is for sure a Macey! What a great ride we are having with her! She is my little firecracker! She is the one child where I learned that all children are different and you may have to parent differently for each of your children. She has kept me on my toes for the past 5 years, and I wouldn't have it any other way!
