Happy Maci - Grumpy Mom

Well the good news is that Maci and I spent the weekend at the new house. We worked on it all weekend cleaning, arranging and STUFFING things in the unoccupied upstairs/storage unit! It is habitable, however, not organized enough for me. I think I might go nuts if I don't get stuff put away. I did get my closet, the kitchen, living room, and upstairs bath livable. We are using our extra fridge from our old house, and it was too big to fit in the kitchen. So our fridge in on the porch. Not real accessible, but usable! Maci and I have to go shopping for a microwave. I can't live without one. It takes way too much time to reheat her macaroni on the stove. Actually I am so spoiled, I didn't even think of it until Derek told me to just put in on the stove. Who knew you could use the stove to reheat!

With all that said. Maci was a SUPER girl all weekend. She played and played by herself while I worked away. The only time she really gets in the way is when you are using ANY form of water. The girl likes water. I was scrubbing the floors and she was mimicking me the whole time right in front of me. So not much cleaning accomplished. I would pretend to go back to unpacking something and sneak back over to clean after she had moved on to playing. This worked little bits at a time.

Maci was really into pretend playing this weekend. After I get above water, I will have to go get my old table in grandma's basement and the crib my parents saved from my play toys. She is going to LOVE them. This weekend she would sit on a little stool and use the end tables as her table.

I have to get a picture of her long hair. For the first time (okay first time I tried), I was able to put her hair in pigtails. It was too funny. And amazingly she left them alone.

Well, today we have a doctor's appointment. We will have an update on weight and height. Also, we get shots today. Her breathing has been acting up since Labor Day weekend. We spent the whole weekend outside and now I can't get her back to normal. Well normal for her. Derek is concerned about her feet, so we will find out if we need to go to the foot doctor. He thinks she is too flat footed. Update coming soon...
