What's New!

Yep, having another person to write about has set our blog back WAAAAY farther than we wanted it to! Instead of trying to go back and fill in all of the blanks right away we've decided to start where we are right now and then back fill as we have time...

So, read about what we're up to now and then check below for links to past months that we've updated :-)

She's Got Crazy Building Skills!

Today Madeline helped Dad put together a new pantry for the kitchen. With all of the new food/eating supplies being added to the kitchen for Madeline, we needed some extra space!
At first she was a little confused.
Then Dad showed her how the screwdriver worked. She was a pro in no time!

9 Months Old!

Madeline turned 9 months old today and the only picture taken was this one of her showing off her very stylish hair :-) She's going to love this one when she's older!

A New Friend!

Today we went to visit our friend Negar and her brand new little girl Elise! Elise's big brother, Myles, loves holding his new sister :-) And Negar loves holding Madeline. Madeline always has huge smiles when she sees Negar :-)

Another Nice Day

We love going outside for walks. This time Madeline got to ride in the Bjorn! We think she likes this better than the stroller :-)

Grass - What's That ?!?!

Another warm day! That meant more time to play outside. We went for a walk and then played in the yard.
It was the first time Madeline got to play in the grass.
She touched it and walked in it and thought it was great! It's still brown and crunchy, but it will turn green and soft soon.
Dad even took her flying - her favorite!

1st Spring Walk

Even though it's only the middle of March, it was 73 degrees outside today. So, we decided that we needed to take advantage of the warm weather and head outside for a walk. It probably won't stay this warm for long so we made sure we got out while we could :-) It was so nice to be able to get outside and enjoy the fresh air. We saw lots of our neighbors outside enjoying the warm weather too. We can't wait for the summer when we can go outside and play all the time!

Standing Up & Loving It!

Sitting up on her own just hasn't been good enough lately - she always wants to stand! Looking at the world from this new viewpoint has been so exciting :-)

Most of the time Dad or mom has to help,
but our little coffee table is just the right size to let her try it on her own! We just have to make sure Dad or Mom is right there to catch her when her legs get tired and she topples over!

Jumping

Madeline has really grown to love her jumper! It's one of her favorite parts of the day! She gets to let out all of the energy she has built up and really jumps like crazy :-) A perfect way to to get some exercise while it's still too cold to go and play outside.

Holding Her Own Bottle!


We've discovered a new talent... Madeline can hold her bottle all by herself! She still hasn't quite mastered how to get it back in her mouth once it has fallen out, but she's getting better at it all the time. Pretty soon Mom and Dad won't have to help at all!

Baby's Got Her Blue Jeans On!

Mom bought these blue jeans for Madeline months ago and they finally fit! Sure they are a size 3-6 months and Madeline is over 8 months old now, but since when have clothes ever fit her when the tags say they should ?!?! All that matters is that now we have a blue jean wearing baby and we think she's absolutely adorable. She's even wearing the black patten leather shoes - how trendy!

Watch our new house being built!
