Bedtime story

 
I think Madeline likes munching on her hands just as much as she enjoys hearing Daddy read about Franklin. 

Getting ready for Christmas!

  

Mommy group christmas party at Donna's

We went to a Christmas party for my Thursday mommy-and-me group and Madeline wore her bonnet! Everyone thought she was so sweet.
 
 
 
 
Madeline fell asleep after we had our lunch and her boyfriend Bennett came to join her! 

Madeline met Santa and Mrs Clause!

 
 
 
and it was not that much fun- poor thing. She just wanted to play with her tongue which she discovered this week and can't get enough of!

She is so excited to see her family in just a few day! Christmas is the BEST! You get to see your family and friends even though they live so far away.

sneeze and giggle

I know the video is dark but you can hear her making some adorable noises and then even her sneeze is cute!

Madeline watches tv with dad

Madeline is trying to sit up. And if she leans on one of us she enjoys
watching her Baby Signs DVD with us. Here she is with daddy.
I am grateful for this time because I am so afraid she is going to have a flat head
since she sleeps on her back all the time and loves to lay on the floor
and play but doesnt care for tummy time. We are working on that though, and when
we prop her arms up over a blanket or pillow, she rolls onto her back. I will try to capture that on video this week for you all...

She is getting so big!

bathtime video

this baby loves her bath
and it seems her daddy...a whole lot more!

two quick pics

 
 

just a couple of pics from the weekend. We are not feeling our best but she is just so cute, even when she is under the weather! She loved her bathtime with daddy and then we sang songs and played music and she was so enthralled! We are going to sign up for baby music class in January. A woman from the class came to mommy group on Thursday and Madeline was smiling and cooing the whole time we sang and played instruments. I think she has real potential! :) 

Look who's cooing

She has so much to say!
Madeline spends lots of time on her blanket,
kicking her feet and laughing. She looks at everything
and has lots to say. Her favorite place is laying on her back
anywhere, looking at mom and dad and smiling at the world.
