Fun in the Sun!

Yesterday afternoon we introduced Madison to her baby pool. We figured the weather was definately warm enough for a little swim in the pool. Madison loves her bath time so much we figured she would love sitting around in her pool. We were right! Aside from the chilly water that would take her breath away every little bit, she was all smiles. I think the pool was a hit!!

Visit From Cousin Garret

Garret came to Rolla to visit last week and spend some time with us and his cousin Madison. I think he really enjoyed his time here with us. He got to spend some quality time with Madison and she really had fun with him as well. We let him off the hook, he never had to change any diapers, however he did have to rinse out a poopy outfit of Madison's. I think that was enough for him!! It was great to have him here with us and I hope he had a good time here as well.

Late Happy Birthday Brad!!

Last weekend we ventured down to Little Rock, AR to spend the weekend with Uncle Brad, Aunt Laura and cousin Emma. Little did Brad know, we were coming down for the surprise birthday visit from the whole family. We got in later Friday afternoon and spent some good quality time with them. Emma wasn't too excited to have her mom and dad holding another baby...but later on she warmed up to it and was then offering Madison her toys with a "here go". It was really cute. Then around 11:15pm Uncle Dale, Aunt Michelle, cousin Thomas and Garret and Grandma and Grandpa Schnackenberg showed up for the big 40th birthday surprise, and I do think that Uncle Brad was surprised. It was a great weekend with everyone and we were very glad to get to spend time with the entire family!!

Fun in the sun!

Madison absolutely loves to be outside! We take her out in her stroller every chance we get and also just carry her around the backyard. She loves to look around at all the trees, flowers and of course the dogs. She will sit and watch Max and Bailey run around for the longest time. She jumps when they come close to her but there's always a big grin on her face when she's watching them. We took advantage of the beautiful weather this weekend and had her outside quite a bit. We can't wait for more beautiful weather so she can enjoy the outdoors some more!

4 Month Check up

Madison had her 4 month check up today and yes tha meant those darn shots!! She is now in the 50th percentile for weight at 13 lbs 10 1/2 oz and the 75th percentile for height at 24 3/4 inches. She is definately growing and far cry from the 5 lbs 11oz of when she was born. He said that again her throat was pretty red along with her nasal passages and that she was probably working on a virus. Chris and I decided we were going to call her our little virus. It seems like everytime we turn around she has a virus of some sort. She did good with her shots and only screamed for a little bit. She calmed down pretty much immediately when I picked her up. I still hate to see her getting jabbed with the needle!! We don't have to go back until her 6 month check up which will be here before we know it!

4 Months

Happy 4 months Madison! I can't believe that Madison is 4 months old already! The time is flying by so fast. She has so many new accomplishments lately and she's just getting cuter everyday! In addition to rolling over and talking ALOT, she has now found her hands and holds them together all the time now. She is holding and reaching for toys and as of yesterday, she is starting to get mad when you take her toys away from her. She is growing and developing so fast anymore! We absolutely love watching all the new things that she does. She is so beautiful and such a blessing to us!

Playtime with Grandma and Grandpa Davis

I apologize for not getting any posts up in a while. Both Madison and I have been under the weather for the past week or so. I promise I will try to be better and get posts up more often.
Madison got a visit from Grandma and Grandpa Davis and cousin Keyona over Memorial Day weekend. She was showing them all of her new tricks and I think everyone was amazed at how fast she was growing! I think everyone had a great time!
