SO BIG!

Well, nothing really exciting happened this week. Mommy had a cold and spent some time recovering (runny nose and sinus pressure) and I had a runny nose too. We both are almost healed though! I am also getting really BIG. I think I grew this week... ate a lot more, slept a little less (cause I was up eating) and my feet are really grounded in my jumper. Mommy even said it may almost be time to make it taller! I also have learned how to dig my feet in and arch my back... everywhere. Safety straps at all times for me!


I can move A LOT! Not sure who the blanket is for... One time, Daisy took advantage of it while I played elsewhere! :)


Along with a rainy spring week, we had some 60 degree days and I spent some time in my new "compact" stroller taking Daisy for a walk. Daddy doesn't like my "luxury" stroller because he says it is too big for Britain (Mommy laughs at this), but either way, now I have two! The "compact" stroller folds up smaller and is skinnier. It also works nice on our walks and will even get to go to the airport to pick up "the kids." Oh, I am SO excited to pick up Uncle Chad and Cousins Jake and Cara Friday!! They are not "kids", but Mommy says it is just easier to say that then their names all the time :)

I love going for walks! (But scream when the stroller stops moving)



Bath time! Mommy was playing with my hair...she says I look like my new Cabbage Patch Doll.

Daddy is so BUSY and now he is even busier because he signed up for a college class! We are excited though. He has wanted to do this since they moved here. He needed a Humanities credit so he took "History of Cambridge." He doesn't like it very much, but it is a Fri. night/ all day Sat class, and his Saturdays are spent touring Cambridge so Mommy and I think it sounds fun (although last Saturday he spent walking around in the rain!).

Another "one-of-a-kind" onsie:

Although I don't think Grandpa feels this way anymore (He totally LOVES ME!) I want to make one thing clear....



I AM FUN NOW!!!!!



Love to you all until next week,
Madelyn and gang


The video is my latest discovery... my voice! You'll see what I mean. (Runny nose, slobber, and all!)

A particularly cute combo of pictures and video today! Love reading about what's happening...even if it was a slow week. Alex watched this clip and worried she was crying. I assured him she was having lots of fun! Can't wait to see you guys! Have a great week!

Wow Maddy you sure are getting big! I wish I was there to help you realize what the blanket is for and to teach you how to roll over! You are going to have sooo much fun with uncle Chad and Jake and Cara. They are going to spoil you rotten. Don't let uncle Chad give you too many kisses!

I love the new jumper it looks like it is a lot of fun. Xavier has the same jumper and he has become friends with the frog also! He also gets mad that one of the flowers doesn't move.

Love you lots--hugs and kisses!
