Testing

Testing out the bumbo seat and the surf mat! Madison wasn't to sure about either one of them.

I had fun! :)

How can this not make you smile?

Jungle Mat

Wow! I should have taken this jungle mat out weeks ago! Madison LOVES it. It has 20 minutes of lights and music!

2 months!

Can't believe my little baby is already 2 months!

I'll do goofy mom if you take a profile shot first! :)

Happy Valentine's Day!

Valentine's date

My parents watched Madison on Saturday and John and I were able to go out for a little Valentine's date. It was really nice to have a quiet meal together.

Bow holder

Check out this awesome bow holder Kristi made to match Madison's room. I really think she should start selling these. They are so pretty!

Here's the one she made for Peyton's room!

Sleep positioner

For the past 8 weeks, Madison has been sleeping in the small bassinet that is attached to the top part of the pack-n-play. It's been making me nervous that she is going to roll out of it. I'm not even sure if it's possible because it's shaped like a hammock. We've had her swaddled tightly and when she wakes up she doesn't even look like she's moved. However, being a new over protective mom, I decided to put her in the lower part of the pack-n-play and in between the sleep positioner to help the transition. I thought this might help her feel cozy and safe. Boy, was I wrong!! Both times when I woke up to feed her she had managed to shimmy her way to the bottom of it. I really don't think she liked it! Finally, at 6 this morning I took it away! She went right back to sleep and looked much more comfy. She now has room to stretch out and move a little. I guess in 8 more weeks, I'll try moving her into her crib!! HAHA! I'm just not ready to have her across the house yet. I really like having her just outside our bedroom in the dining room. (maybe I'm just too lazy to walk across the house for the nightly feedings!) This is how she slept the first 8 weeks!Here's how she started last night. Here's how I found her the 1st time.

After the first time, I tried moving it lower so she wouldn't have room to move down but somehow she managed to still get halfway down.

Doesn't she look cozy? Now she has all the room she wants! I guess this will be her new way of sleeping ! :)

Goofy

I think Madison is getting use to the camera in her face 24-7!! She is now making different faces each time for me!! These are the PRICELESS moments! I love it!

First Road Trip

This past weekend was Madison's 1st road trip! We went to Center, Texas so she could meet her great-grandparents. She did great in the car. She slept the entire time both ways! It was such a special trip! Here are some pictures from our weekend! Madison with her great-grandparents!

Madison and her great-grandma!

John built a new deer stand this weekend for next hunting season. He spent the entire weekend working on it. I must say it's a HUGE deer stand. Nothing will replace the old stand that he has used for the past 20 years that he built with his grandpa. It's actually still standing in the orginal spot! Here's a picture of it! Sleeping with Nana!

Playing on the floor with mom and Nana! One of the few pictures I have with Madison since she was born. I'm usually taking all the pictures.

The ride home!

2 month check-up

We had Madison's 2 month check-up on Thursday and she's growing really well. She is now 10lbs. 13oz. and is 22 1/4 inches long. All her numbers fall in the 50 percentile. She also received her first round of shots which actually wasn't that bad. She only cried while she was poked and seems to feel okay now. I'm so excited that we can finally get out of the house without feeling guilty!! Here's a picture of my sweet baby!
