I've been meaning to write this post for the longest time now, just as an update on where Mac's at.
When Spence started walking Mac was as excited as the rest of us (at first), but it also seemed to bring out a few insecurities as I guess it maybe seemed to him like Spence was suddenly getting ALL of the praise & attention.
Anyways, he mustn't have been too happy about this & he started trying to fight for some of his spotlight back by disappearing into Spence's room for little periods & then coming back dressed as a baby!!
As you can see this happened more than once & he also started asking for his milk in a bottle again, "just like Spencer" lol
Thank goodness this little phase only lasted a couple of weeks & he is now back to normal (well as normal as Mac can be!)
It's nice to have some peace & quiet as I type this as my ears are a little sore after having him home for two weeks for kindy holidays lol.....I do feel super blessed to have such a smart little cookie though & I never have to wonder if he loves me cause he tells me he does a million times a day :) :) I love you too my precious xxxx

| The after dinner ritual now is for Mac to build a cushion slide/play area off the couch so he can jump around & do roly polys. He's only allowed to do it if he eats all of his dinner, which for now is working a treat!! |

| Spence thinks it's great & always tries to get in on the action too :) |
