Mackenzie's One month Update

Mackenzie turned one month old on June 4. What a fast month it was! She is a great little baby in her first month.  She is getting used to her new life "on the outside". She loves to eat and eats every 2 to 3 hours and screams very loud if we make her stretch the time in between :) She has reflux so we are careful to keep her her upright and burp her really good after each feed, or else everything comes out! Even with these precautions she still is spitting and gets a lot of "tummy pain" after eating.  Just part of being a newborn, and hopefully she will grow out of it quickly! Mackenzie loves tummy time and will stop crying and often fall asleep once on her tummy, which is very different than Addison (who screamed like we were torturing her when placed on her stomach). Addison absolutely loves her little sister, she is constantly wanting to give "Kenza" (as she calls her) a kiss or to hold her or to "shake her hand". It is so fun to watch her love her little sister. Mackenzie has had many visitors this month including both sets of grandparents, GG, Uncle Kevin, Aunt Angela, Gideon, Elizabeth, Uncle Rob, Aunt Stephanie, and Caleb. Grandma Schneider even came and stayed with us for a few days to help us out.  We have felt so blessed by our church family at Chapel Pointe.  They have been a huge encouragement to us during this transition time with bring meals and helping out with Addison. We are so thankful that God has given us an amazing church.
