As many of you know we have all been anxiously awaiting the birth of Gary and Mandy's twin girls Macy and Makayla! Macy & Makayla arrived on August 11, 2009! Macy was first and weighed in at 6lbs 3oz. Makayla made her arrival 53 minutes later and weighed 6lbs 13oz. No, that was not a typo...they are 53 minutes apart! Mandy is one tough lady!!! I think I would have told the Dr.'s Makayla was just going to have to stay in there for a few more days because I would have needed to rest up :) Mom, Dad, Macy and Makayla are all doing great and just trying to get adjusted to their new life style and routines. Of course we were all in the waiting room waiting to see who was going to get the text saying that they were here.....and here comes Melissa running down the hall reading the text to all of us that Macy was here! It was so exciting and then came a picture to my phone of Macy and Mom! Of course we had to pull it up on the computer so everyone could get a good look at the new grandchild/niece. After almost two very long hours we finally found out that Makalya was born as well and that everyone was doing great. We were optimistic that all was going well but I think we all just expected to hear that Makayla was born within a few minutes of Macy. 
I absolutely love my new nieces and can't wait to see them again! Haley has only seen pictures of the girls but she seems very anxious to get to know them! We are already practicing telling them apart. I'm sure now that she can almost tell Sheryl and I apart that she'll quickly learn how to tell Macy and Makayla apart.

After spending two nights away from Haley we were able to enjoy a full day just to ourselves. I had taken a vacation day from work so Haley stayed home with me and we went on a walk in the morning, read books, played with toys and then headed to the pool for our lunch picnic after nap time and then topped off our afternoon with a popsicle :)
Of course Haley still loves to dance so this morning I put her in her new dress that Sher Sher bought her and she was twirling all around the living room and dancing to her Dr. Jean CD :) It was so cute and I think she really likes her new dress! Like usual we ended our night with our ice cream on the patio before heading inside for bath time, story time and then off to bed! 
So pathetic!
