I have been trying to get Macie to eat with a spoon for a couple of months now... but she has never been interested. I finally broke down and got her some vanilla pudding, thinking that might motivate her. Sure enough, she thought it was great, and soon she was spooning up pudding like a pro!
Until she turned the spoon over....
and started dipping from the other end.

My mom hosted the annual Christmas party for all of my friends and their moms this year. We had such a great time visiting! I have known most of these girls since pre school... and we are all still very close friends. Our babies had fun playing together too! We really missed our friends who couldn't come this year.
Macie turned 15 months old on December 6. She had her well baby visit that day, and Dr. Harpavat said she was doing great. She weighs 19 lbs (7th%tile) and is 28" tall (5th %tile).
Last night was the annual Dallas Cowboys Christmas Party - held at The Stadium Club at Texas Stadium. We had such a great time hanging out with all of our buddies from Steve's work!! The food was great - even better than the Cowboys Children's Party... We enjoyed lots of shrimp and sushi and the most wonderful desserts!
Steve stopped by yesterday on his way to the airport to tell us bye. He was headed to Atlanta where the Cowboys will play tonight. We are hoping for a win!! Lots of luck to the 'Boys!
