Gianormous Feet!

Madi has the largest longest feet I've ever seen on a baby. She is only 10 weeks old and just fits into her 6-12 months size socks. She has long fingers and very long toes. They are curled up here but she is constantly flexing them and moving about. I hope she will be tall.

Saturday's with Daddy



Madison cannot wait until summer because Daddy doesn't work Saturday's in the summer. Daddy works at least every other Saturday. Today Daddy has off and these two just chilled out together while Mommy cleaned the house.

Thanks Easter Bunny

Thank you Nana for my bunny jacket. She really does love it. I know you can't tell in this picture. This was taken at the end of a long day for Madi.
Madison's Easter Jammies.
Madi was showing off to her great grandmother as to just how animated she gets watching her mobile go round and round.
She was kicking and waiving her arms in excitement.
Madison and Uncle Doug.
Madi and Auntie Kerrie.
Madi and Great Nana.
Nana and Pop.
Jackson enjoying his bone. You can see Tucker's paw as he is coming to take Jackson's bone from him as usual.
Patrick enjoying our company after Easter dinner.
At least Derek stayed awake.
Madi and Auntie Darlene. Madi just loves to show off the power of her lungs. She is screeching at Auntie Darlene.
This was Madison's first Easter. She enjoyed the family coming over for dinner. She did really well and only cried a little. She was very tired at the end of the day. She missed her nap time.

Belly Time

Madison scooches her way across the couch pushing with her feet. She has such strong legs it is really amazing.

She holds herself up and turns her head side to side. As you can see she has had enough of belly time.

Madison's Boo Boo's



Today Madison went for her 2 month check up. She had her first set of immunization shots. She showed off her boo boo's to Daddy and now you. She was very brave. Mom was more freaked out. She is doing great according to Dr. Lars. She is 23 1/2 in long and is in the 90th percentile in height. She now weighs 11 lbs and 8 oz and is in the 65th percentile in weight which is awesome because she was only in the 30's for a while.

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Her lovely Irish temper.

Sleepy Irish Gal.
Serious Irish baby.



My happy Irish baby.
Madison is a true Irish woman.
Several emotions in a 5 minute span.
Some may call this bi-polar but we just call it luck of the Irish.
Lucky us, Happy St. Patty's Day!!!!!!

Getting Big (Scary)

Her Teddy no longer fits with her.
Here she is now in her bassinet. Her knees are bent but she literally fills the bassinet. Almost time for the crib.


Here is Madison in her bassinet the day we brought her home from the hospital. She really was a peanut.

Sleeping Beauties

My angel.
Madison decided not to take her afternoon nap today. She was so exhausted she fell asleep on the changing table after I changed her. She actually gave me time to blog since the computer is right next to her and I hate to wake a sleeping baby. I've learned to just let her sleep (the hard way of course).

Tucker was so tired he was sleeping while hanging off the couch. These boys are going to be sad when this couch goes and the have to sleep in their own beds.


It's amazing when she is tired how she will sleep. She loves cuddling. I've found I can put her down in the boppy and she thinks we're still holding her. I must say she looks so cute here.

Cabin Fever


As you can see Madison loves her boys back. Mom swears her first word will be Tucker (in the same tone Dave and I yell TUCKAAAAAHHHHH)!!!!


They even play with Madison. They just kept kissing her. Thank god they love her and are gentle.










These boys need to get outdoors. They have taken over my living room. I cannot wait to install the electric fence so they can just run. They need to get outdoors and play.

Madison's Crib




Dave was busy while we were at the party. He set up Madison's crib and got her room ready for her. This was the first time Madi was in her crib. As you can see she is having a good old time. She was kicking and laughing at her mobile. She absolutely loved it. She fixated on the mobile and then got big excited eyes when she saw everything on the bumper. She has almost outgrown her bassinet and will be moving into her room soon. I can't believe how big she is getting already.


Happy Birthday Reilly, Caragh and Patrick!

Madison cried almost the entire party. How fun. Thankfully her cousins still love her anyway. Caragh told me she was crying because she missed her Daddy (how true). Caragh says that's why she cries.





You know Jay is loving this Moon Sand almost as much as Caragh. Reilly was not pleased when he swept it up and threw it out. She told me it's like $50 a barrel for this stuff. Reilly is really a riot. The things she says just kills me. She told me Madison looks like her Daddy because they have the same blue eyes. Others commented that the hairline was the true resemblance.
