Hello blog world.....Meet Macey Grae Herring! She made her grand entrance on April 25, 2011 weighing in at 8 lb. 6oz. Despite all the storms that night, my labor and delivery experience was AWESOME this time! We had to move into storm shelter two times and the last time they decided to keep me there and prepare to deliver her. She is perfect! We were all very surprised by how long her feet and fingers were!
We were all very surprised at the size of her finger and feet.....they are huge! Do I see a piano player in the future? ha!
So many visitors came to meet Macey. This is her cousins, Tanner and Jansen.
Aunt Kim, Uncle Spencer, and Aunt "Gigi" Gina
Proud Papa John!
With all the storms that night, it could have been very nerve-racking and scary. But my nurse, Terry, was awesome. She kept us laughing and turned a tense situation into a very calm and peaceful environment. 
Littel Miss Macey Grae all ready to go home.
We decided to go surprise Big Brother Dalton and pick him up early from school so that he could be there when we got home with Macey for the first time. He has been such a great Big Brother and has adjusted very well. He gets asked often, "Do you like your sister?" He says, "No, I love her!"
More visitors at home....Cindy Mickan. We have had so many come by to meet and love on Macey. From church to work, I did not have to worry about supper for 3 weeks after she was born! What a blessing! We ate well, too! These poor men at my house eventually had to go back to my cooking :)!
Dalton enjoying some little sister time.
Dalton's job was to show off his "Big Brother" picture album to visitors when they came over. Here he is showing it to Lauren and P.J
Pop enjoying his first grand-daughter.
She is such a good baby! She really only cries when she is hungry or sleepy. She loves to be held and cuddled. This is totally different from her brother who did not want to be held and just wanted to be put in his bed to go to sleep. We are trying to get her used to going to bed by herself without needing to be rocked to sleep and she usually does very well with that. At the time of this writing, she is 8 weeks old and has started sleeping through the night, most of the time. She has also started smiling at us,too! So cute!
Gran and Pop stayed with us a few nights the first week she was home. What a great help that was!
Grandma and Autumn
When my parents came to help, John and I were so tired, that we fed her and put her to bed with this note for Pop and Gran, "Feed me at 3:30" and then we went to bed!
Her first bath and of course Dalton is front and center!
I am enjoying this little girl and all the frilly things that come with her!
Mom and Macey
Dad enjoying both of his kids! Love this picture!

I am enjoying this little girl and all the frilly things that come with her!However, getting her ready is alot more involved that getting a little boy ready. You have to pick out socks, shoes, headbands, bows, panties, etc... So fun!
