Madison's Monthly Update


Ignore my awful eye, my allergies were reeking havoc the past few days

The past few months have been nothing what I would have ever expected, yet at the end of the day when I tuck my precious baby girl into bed, I realize that everything happens for a reason. We are strong, and we can do anything! I do want to apologize for this post being just a little late, as for Madison turned 7 months on May 19th.

Recap:
• Loves that she is no longer an "only child" now that she is around other children it has made it clear to me that when / if I ever settle down again, he better expect to have children.
• She does not eat breakfast, and refuses to eat her breakfast without Coraline sitting across from her. They are a year and a half apart, but I can tell already they will be like best friends.
• Absolutely loves baths with people! About twice a week she'll take a bath with either Coraline or Brigid. She's also taken showers with me and she just loves being able to play around in the water.
•If you haven't been stalking my facebook, Madison can now pull herself up onto her feet!
• She has a set naptime, 2pm, and a set bedtime- 9pm. This is a strict schedule, and she's doing great at it.
• We're down to about 4 bottles a day, compared to the 8-12 she was having when we moved up here. Baby foods are an every meal sort of thing, and she has been introduced to baby yogurt bites and puffs. For the record, she loves them!
• Her bottom two teeth are looking like they are ready to cut any day now, and it's just a waiting game.
•Everywhere I take Madison I am always complimented because she is such a happy baby. She doesn't cry, she doesn't fuss, she just smiles and laughs at everything and everyone who passes by.
• & for those who have been asking, she's in 9 month clothes, size 3 diaper, size 2 shoe, and weighs 20lbs!
