We celebrated Maddie's baptism on the 27th!! Then later in the day, Grandpa, Sharon and Great-Grandma Quinlan came over to celebrate a late Christmas with us all.

We spent the day after Christmas at Grandma Mary's house. Anita, Pete and the kids and Great-Grandma Pachmayer came into town to join the rest of us as well.

This Christmas was very special as all of my brothers & sisters and their families came to visit. Trevor, Lena and the kids came the day before Christmas Eve but had to leave on Christmas Eve so we celebrated with them at my mom's house on the 23rd before they had to leave.

No one was more shocked than me that we are having another girl. . . I would have put a lot of money on us having a boy since this pregnancy is so different than my pregnancy with Macy! But we are thrilled that Macy is going to have a little sister. All looks good and healthy and measuring on track. Her heart rate was 155 today and I am 20 weeks along. What a neat early Christmas present!!!!!!! Thanks to Grandma Mary for coming with us to be a part of the ultrasound too.
She stayed face down the entire time so I didn't get a nice profile picture but here are a few cute ones! All curled up.
We finally got hit with an actual snowstorm this weekend. I took Macy out to see what the snow was all about. We didn't stay out long because I didn't bundle her up in her snowsuit but thanks to her super cool Christmas gift from Diane Coffindaffer (Tyler, Ethan & Aylee's Grandma) she was nice and warm!! Thank you "Grandma" Diane for the sweater/hat/mitten set. . . it is so soft and warm (not to mention stylish) we will get lots of use out of it!
Macy has turned into such a fun side-kick on the weekends. She is a great little shopper!! This picture is from a recent shopping trip to Target with Mommy & Grandma Mary. We might have a problem when she starts talking more and can report back to Daddy all the stuff we buy!!!!
Since our friends and family are spread all over the country, we decided to start this family website to keep in touch and share this journey with all of you.
