Macy is hilarious. Sometimes talking to her is like playing a super cute little guessing game... she says things and I have no idea where she gets it, OR I have no clue what she is acually saying. Here's a little vocab lesson in Macy language...

Sandwhich.....Swam-itch
Hospital.........Haus-uh-vul
stand up........stan-bup
dominos........dino-moes

cute kid....

funny kid

Last week Macy and I were having a little discussion about Jesus. I asked her where Jesus lived and she said " oh... in Las Vegas".... awesome.

Macy currently calls elevators " alligators"... don't try to correct her, as she will bet money that it is an alligator and not an elevator...

Today Rich was teaching Macy how to open her Easter eggs. She watched him intently and after he showed her how she responded " oh, now I get it" ... normally that isn't a funny except when it comes from a 2 year old wearing footsie pajamas.. then it's freaking adorable and hilarious.

Macy came out this morning and discovered her Easter basket... she rifled through all the stuff and was super stoked. After she checked it all out, I re-iterated to her that the EASTER BUNNY had brought her all that fun stuff... then she looked at me while pointing to the basket and said "Mommy, that's probably from Target.".... I just can't win.

...the boy name...

first things first... I really need to change the header of this blog to include the little boy... I'm working on it :)

So, the name story is a semi long one, so I thought I'd get it on the "kid journal" instead of my regular blog, which is mostly for entertainment purposes only :)

LUKE JAMES KNAPP :)

Rich and I were talking about names a looooong time ago before Macy was even a twinkle in her dad's eye, and Luke was brought up and we both knew we loved the name, and wanted to name one of our son's Luke, if we ever had one :) Fast forward to 4 years later, when our first little boy was 24 hours old, we decided over breakfast that this little guy was the lucky "Luke" winner :)

During this pregnancy we were so confused about what to name him and had several names on the short list. The crazy part is we both subconsciously would refer to him, or his stuff as "Luke"... We got a few Christmas gifts for the little boy and I found myself several times telling Macy not to touch them because they were "Luke's toys" And every time I said that I would go, "WHAT the!?" Also Rich said he would drive past the hospital and just randomly think " That's where Luke is going to be born" and go WHAT THE?!?! Mostly because for most of my pregnancy we had written the name Luke off because it doesn't have enough syllables and possibly sounded like "Lou Kuh Nap" .... I'm pretty sure it STILL doesn't have enough syllables and does possible sound like Lou Kuh Knapp depending on how you say it or how much you over think it :) But we decided to get over it and give into it! And now we love it!!!!!

James came around for a few reasons... #1 It's manly :) #2It's the name of the one of the Captains of the Enterprise :) #3 Rich's dad's middle name is Jay.... so it's a half a shout out to Clive :)

So that's the story how the boy with no name became Luke James Knapp.

...proud mom...

Call me crazy, but when I saw this little tower creation, I was ECSTATIC....

Rich and I were watching American Idol and I heard this little " look mommy!" I looked at her and found this beautifully constructed masterpiece....It's so funny because as a mom when your kid does something you didn't know they could do, or something that shows that the little gears in there brain had to work overtime to do it, it really does become something BEAUTIFUL! It goes from a stack of blocks to a brilliantly pieced together sculpture!!!! I sound nuts... but that's really how I feel!

Funny note of the day..... Macy calls Hamburgers "Sham-burgers" I have no idea why.

...cute...

Today, Macy was helping me make pancakes for breakfast. While I was flipping the first batch, I looked over and saw that she had lined up 3 measuring cups from biggest to smallest. Then after she looked at them for a second she pointed to each one, starting with the biggest and said "Oh that's Daddy, Mommy, and Macy!" She's also done this with 3 different sizes of dolls, balls, and drinking cups....I'm just glad the daddy stuff is still bigger than the mommy stuff, even though that MAY not be the case in there here latter days of my pregnancy! :)

Yesterday, I was sitting on the couch apparently looking very tired because Macy came up to me and said " Mommy? Are you SUPER TIRED???" I told her "Yes mommy IS super tired" and with that the she patted my cheek and gave me a kiss. Oh how I love that little girl!!!

...major slacker....

OBVIOUSLY I'm a wonderful mother, since I've been keeping such a detailed record of my kid :)haha.... I decided to just use this as a random cute/ funny /exciting thing journal.... so I won't have big fat update blogs, I'll just jump on here and post random cute to me and Rich, maybe cute to you things, so that I can show my kids when they grow up how freaking hilarious and adorable they were.

- Last month I got Macy the first half of her SEASONAL flu shot, and before we went in I explained to her that she had to go in and get just a "little owie", but it would help her not get sick and have lots of owies for lots of days. I kept reassuring her that it was just a " little owie" OF COURSE she screamed her little head off.... Fast forward to today... I went to get my blood drawn for my one hour glucose tolerance test for this pregnancy and I brought Macy with me. As soon as we walked into the little room where they were going to draw my blood, she whipped her little self around and with HUGE eyes, went running out yelling " I DON'T WANT A LITTLE OWIE!!!!!!"

- Today in the car we stopped at a red light. Macy looked up and said, " Red means stop!" So I said, "Yep and what does green mean??" She said she didn't know so I told her, "Green means GO!" She sat for about 20 seconds and then said, "What does blue mean?" and I said, " I don't know, what DOES blue mean?" She got a big smile on her face and said " BLUE MEANS PLAY!"

Update on the Moo...

Well we took Macy to the doctor this week and here is the update and good news that she is only one shot behind now. There weren't supposed to be any shots at this visit, but Macy is on a reduced schedule. Only two shots every time. I just don't agree with giving kids 3 and 4 shots for their little immune systems to try and handle all at once! I'm not saying that is right for EVERYONE, it just how we roll...:) Also, After livin in up in the 95-99th percentile for head size, weight and height her whole life, she is now down to 90th percentile for height and 75th for weight.... they didn't mention her head size, which I'm fine with since I already feel guilty about passing down my big ole' nogin. :) She is talking up a storm and our favorites are "Hi guys!", "I gotchoo mommy/daddy", "uh-oh, where'd Daddy go?" (that one is in the morning after rich leaves for work) " " bye home" when we leave and " oh, hi home!" when we come back, and Rich just taught her to say " monkey poop" so she just walks around the house saying," monkey poop, ooh ooh ooh" ( the sound that the monkey makes) over and over... it's cute/embarrassing :) Ever since she got on our friends, the Leonards, blog and remembered her bff Emma, she is obsessed with asking for her...she is always saying "Oh no! where'd Emma go?"
Her other current obsession is her Disney figurines my my mom got her at Disneyland... she takes them everywhere she goes, and has to have ALL OF them or we are screwed.....

So there's a little moo action for you... I really suck at keeping her blog updated...
