Crawling Butterfly

Mady's nana bought her this toy for valentine's day. She loves to chase it. Here is the video! Take care!

They grow up so fast!

So Mady is growing like crazy and I am officially exhausted. She is crawling now...not just a few steps but going everywhere and getting into everything. Its amazing how quickly she gets from one place to another and has figured out how quickly she can move around. Its like night and day. I was off work this week and was so excited to get to spend some quality time with her. However, I find myself as tired as I was when she was first born. But I love it. She is soo much fun. Daddy makes her laugh all the time. Here are some of the new things she is doing...enjoy!

1. Crawling...I will post a video soon!
2. Sitting up - all the time.
3. Laughing alot!
4. A busy body - she gets bored of her toys so I am always having to put some away and bring out new ones for her to be entertained with. She has a few that she really likes but for the most part is just looking for something different to play with.
5. Over baby einstein - she used to watch baby einstein videos with such intensity. Now she isn't interested at all. She would rather crawl around and play.
6. Climbing-she is definatley in the climbing mode. After we came back from the valley...she started to climb on things and crawl alot faster. I guess she watched Kai do it some much that she picked it up. Thanks Kai!
7. Naptime - has never been a great experience for either of us but she is doing good. She takes 3-4 naps a day depending on how long they are. I still let her cry it out but eventually go in a calm her down. She has started to pull her self up on the rail and just waits for me to come in. I have pics and will post those soon.
8. Rainforest - she has a rainforest in her crib that plays music and such (most new mom's know what this is) and has now learned how to pull up and turn it on and off.
9. No teeth yet but we are hopeful!

I think that is about it for now. I will post some pics and videos over the next few days!

Hope everyone has a great weekend...stay dry!

Home sweet home!

Mady and I traveled to Edinburg a couple of weekens ago to see friends. I was hosting a bridal shower for Shannon who is getting married to my best friend Caleb in a few weeks. We hung out with Jen alot and her little boy Kai. Thanks so much for having us over Jen! Also thanks soooo much to Jim and Sarah for watching Mady for me! That was so sweet and such a nice little break!
