She finally did it!


Madeline slept through the night for the first time in about 2 months! With teething and then being sick for so long she was waking up all night long! Hopefully this trend continues because I sure liked the sleep!
This morning after I changed her diaper I got up and threw it away and I turned around and Madeline had gotten a wipe and was wiping on of her teddy bears and then wanted to put a diaper on it. It was so funny and cute!!

New fabrics!!

I have gotten some new fabrics and am making burp cloths to go with the nursing covers. This is such a great gift! Check them out at maddilou.blogspot.com !

Somersaults

So Madeline has always been fast at her motor skills I guess you would say. The last couple days we have showed her how to do somersaults and today she started doing them on her own. She is so funny! We have to get this girl in tumbling...just like her father!

Tis the Season

For Sicknesses!!!! Maddie never got sick during the first year of her life, and that sadly has come to an end. We spent a few hours on Christmas in the hospital with a stomach virus. She was so sick and I had given her tylenol to help with her 100 degree temp and then 2 hours later it was 103.5 so at 1 in the morning we were in the ER. She was a bit dehydrated and they kept her there until she would keep down fluids and her temp dropped. She was sick for about 5 days. The hardest part is she was doing so good at eating solids (finally!) before this and I was getting her weaned to about 4 times a day... When she was sick all she wanted to do was nurse and she wouldn't drink anything else so I felt like she was a newborn again. So we just started getting better at eating when she decided to get sick again. My sister in law brought her a stuffed animal today and she carried it all around with her it was cute. I think it helped. We also got her a new denim dress she was going to wear to church today but she didn't get to since she was sick but she saw it in her room and brought it to me and wanted to wear it. She is so funny, and I even got a smile!
