Monday - Part 2 ;0)

My "first day of the babysitter" photo ;) See the snow?


Whew, a good night rest does a lot for a little person! Daddy even took part and got up for the 1:30 feed, it was kinda fun to see him instead of Mommy.



We woke up to SNOW. Mommy says this is only the second "real" snow storm since they have lived here. The news said it was the "worst storm in 18 years." I guess they haven't been to SD! Oh well. This storm led to late reporting on Monday (didn't matter cause Mommy didn't go to work until after that anyway) and late reporting today, although today the snow was melted and was replaced with ice. Yucky. Good note? This means we got to spend a little extra time with Daddy!

My "one-of-a-kind" onsies:

This one was made especially for me by cousin Rachil!



The expression is due to Mommy saying we can't go until June :(


Okay, the week in review...

We spent our last week together hangin out. A trip to the Bob Hope (community center on base) and met with Shea and Sara (Sara shares my birthday). Mommy was sharing all my stories... how embarrassing! Sara and I slept and ate during the meeting. The Mommies decided we would get together again at one of our houses so we could "play" soon. We also met with Jen and Isabelle again and were introduced to a new friend. Mommy is really excited to be meeting all these other Mommies to hang out with. Kinda weird how that all changes. The "single" friends are still lots of fun, but don't always pick "kid friendly" activities.




Jen and Isabelle

Mommy got her hair done on Friday. I got to go cause the lady in the salon really likes me... can you blame her? I chose this to be the perfect opportunity for the WORST diaper in the history of Madelyn :) Did pretty good if I do say so myself... out the front AND back and got a new outfit! Mommy says I made the appt. a little longer than it should of been, but the hair lady was so funny and entertaining!


We also had Neil and Rachel over for supper. They love me! I was a little crabby, but Rachel gave me my bath and helped me get ready for bed. I keep saying, if we are going to have people over it should be for brunch... my happiest time of day!


Just hangin' out.

This weekend we hung out and went shopping. I'm not really a big fan of shopping, but I don't think Daddy really wanted to be there either! Mommy said we HAD to go cause there were good sales and she insisted she needed some shirts that fit for work. I guess all my milk is keeping her 'old' clothes in the closet for now! Daddy stayed up for some of the Super Bowl, but it didn't start here until 11:30 at night!! He says he must have missed the most exciting part - at the end!

Daddy read my new book, "10 Rubber Duckies" (kinda like the song, "Bottles of Beer on the Wall" but with Ducks on a tub! :)


Work is good, but she hasn't had any kids yet... Monday was a work day. I enjoyed the babysitter, but there was so much new stuff going on I couldn't nap. (she had 2 older boys there due to the teacher work day and no school) Didn't want to miss out on anything!!

This is all I did when we got home from the sitter!


Oh, I also saw my feet this week! Have you seen these - FASCINATING! When decorated with footed outfits or even wiggly toes in the tub... I LOVE checkin these things out! Mommy will try to get a picture of this and post it soon!


The video is me checkin out my mobile. My swing is my "chill" place. Whenever I'm crabby, I only need to be put here for a few minutes, have some time to myself, and the world becomes a brighter place!

Love to you all,

Madelyn et al

Oh my goodness how cute can one girl get!! She is adorable and I miss her a ton, but love those smiles. The picture of Shaye reading to her is precious! Congrats Maddy on finding your feet and your hands! I hope your time back at work is going well! Of course I am sure she misses her mom, but it is great for her to socialize with others!

Hugs and Kisses!

She is getting SO big and I think she looks like Shaye. Are you sad to go back to work? She is a doll!
