Madelynn's Dancing

Madelynn is such a funny, little kid.  We are watching the Oscars, and when the songs that are nominated came on she started "dancing".

Boppy Potato

Whenever Madelynn watches TV she has to crawl over to her boppy, scoot to have her head on it, and have a bottle.  Her favorite shows are "Wonder Pets" (Ugh!) and "Backyardigans" (which I love).

Papa

Madelynn is slowly beginning to associate the  'words' with meanings.  Currently she says "mama" "dada" "baba" and "papa" for grandpa.  She understands when we ask her certain things.  She knows what feet are.  When asked how old she is she'll raise her index finger.  We are encouraged that her language skills are improving, as Becca told us it would be a while because Madelynn is concentrating on her gross motor skills.  Turns out Madelynn is a multi-tasker!


This is a video of her saying Papa.  She knows that Dave, John, and Rick are grandpa.  It's cute to hear her say Papa when she sees them.

And once again, it's sideways.

Eating Prunes

Just some fun pictures from lunch yesterday.




Crazy Hair

Madelynn's hair is so long on the top of her head.  After her bath Jer likes to play with it.


Madelynn's Favorite Song

Madelynn will stop and watch the TV whenever Engine Room's "A Perfect Lie"
comes on.  It's the theme song to Nip/Tuck.  Jeremy and I watch several episodes
every Sunday.


Madelynn is Everywhere!

 We packed up all the clothes that are too small for Madelynn.  She is 
trying to get into them, but thankfully, can't figure out the zipper.

Madelynn is helping me fold laundry by pulling all of Jeremy's 
t-shirts on the floor. 
Madelynn pounding on the DVR.
Madelynn getting into the clean laundry basket before
I had a chance to fold it.

She started getting into the kitchen, and I had to block it off with
the coffee table and a chair.  I can't find a gate long enough to keep
her out.

Madelynn Standing Up

Madelynn's Raspberries

She blew raspberries for two minutes straight. I only got 30-seconds of it.

Our Weekend

After a crazy weekend last week, Jeremy and I decided to stay home. I was able to catch some cute moments of Madelynn throughout the two days. I don't think she ever got dressed. :o)

I came around the corner and she had stood up in the recliner, looking for me.
Madelynn playing with the coat closet door.
Trying to help Mom with the dishes.

I thought only baby food would cause this kind of a mess.  Turns out Gold Fish do too.

IHOP with Grandma

After a long afternoon of running around, Mom treated me and the kids to iHop for lunch.

Super Bowl Sunday - More Pictures Added

We went over to Grandpa Rick and Grandma Myker's for the big game.  MykeAnne's team, the Steelers, had once again made it to the Super Bowl so we decided to get Madelynn a onsie to help Grandma cheer on!
These pictures are pre-game, and I will add more to this posting when I get to my laptop.

Madelynn's Ponytail

Madelynn only has hair on the top of her head.  While we were home yesterday I was bored and put her hair in a clip.  The pictures are kind of blurry, but you get the idea.
