Maddie at 10 Weeks Old! Don't worry she did not ride in the front seat of the car :-)

She loves her bath time!

9 Weeks and first airplane ride!

When Maddie was 9 weeks old she took her first airpline ride!! She was WONDERFUL, hardly a peep out of her the whole time. She did better than I did, I was kinda nervous that she would scream on the plane, but she didn't. In the airport I carried her in a Baby Bjorn carrier and she fell right asleep. She also slept most of the time that we were on the plane. My mom had flown to San Antonio to help me fly with Maddie. We met up with my dad in the airport in Dallas. We met up with Adam in Indiana since he had to work and could only fly in for the weekend.

We flew to St Louis to meet my Grandma Dorothy and Grandma and Papa GaVette, who all live in Southern Illinois. They were very anxious to meet their great-grandaughter for the first time! We also met up with my cousins Jennifer and Jessica and Aunt Jan. They loved holding Maddie! We picked up my mom's parents and drove them to Indiana where we met up with my Aunt Bernita and Uncle Skip, cousin Tifney and her husband Mike and their daughter Adria and my cousin Jeremiah. Much plannig went into this weekend and we all had a good time. The goal of the weekend was to take family pictures, I think we got some good ones!

I will post more pictures from the weekend, but here are some with Maddie and her great-grandparents.

2 Month Appointment

May 5th Madelyn had her 2 month doctor appointment. It went well and she handled the shots as well as any baby could. She cried (screamed) during all three pokes. When it was over I picked her up she was fine!
Stats:
Weight 12 lbs. 10 ozs. (90th percentile)
Length 22 1/4 inches (50th percentile)
She is still sleeping very well though the night. She sleeps at least 7-8 hours during the night most all nights!!

8 Weeks

Busy Week in Houston!

This past week Madelyn and I went to Houston to scope out where we will be living. Yes, we are going to be moving back to Houston. The shortened version is that Adam will be heading up a new account in Houston and he will start in June. Our house is on the market and we hope it sells soon! Last week since Adam was out of town and my parents were in Houston I met up with them. Mom helped out with Maddie while I checked out some neighborhoods. We also got to meet with with some friends while we were there.

We had dinner at Jan and Bob's house, but I do not have pictures to show. They were excited to have a baby girl there (many boys in their family).

We met up with my Uncle Kevin (Maddie's Great Uncle) for dinner at Pappasito's, yum!

We also met up with Valerie and Matt. Matt is Italian and he made his special spaghetti sauce for us, it was VERY good! We had a great time.

Then, we met up with Jennifer at her house! We had a nice time catching up.

Thursday was my mom's birthday! Happy Birthday mom! Maddie had a cute outfit on, but it was a little too hot for her in Houston that day.

Papa Jack and Maddie were watching basketball together in the hotel.

Dinner with Kalli and Alyssa

As promised below are the pictures of Madelyn and Alyssa eating Mexican food!
