You're getting so big
My little girl...you're getting so big already!
I can't beleive all the things you've learned how to do in your short little life.
One of your favorite things to do is while you nurse...you 'pop off' every few seconds in the begining of your nursing session to look up at me and grace me with your gummy smile. You sure do have the cutest little gummy smile that I ever did see!

You've mastered the art of rolling you roll here and there and everywhere.....diaper changes are much harder these days...because you no longer just sit still and let it happen....if you're not trying your hardest to roll off of the changing pad...you're playing with your feet.....silly baby :)

You've begun eating solid foods...so far you've had rice cereal, peas, avacado, apples, and pears....you love every single food so far...but we think your favorites are apples and avacados....you love them both!

While Mommy goes to school at night you've begun crying a lot with your Daddy....it makes your Daddy sad. Maybe you could work on that this month mmmkay :) I hate to call on my break from school and hear you crying and know there is nothing I can do for you...when I'm not with you....it breaks my heart lil mama.....

We do beleive you're teething....your covered in drool...you even have a little rash on your hands and your chin from said drool....you chomp down on EVERYTHING in site...including my boob...ouch! You love to chew on cold teethers...and last night we gave you a refrigerated apple that mama took a few bites out of so you could "chew" on that...you loved it :)

I can't wait to take you swimming for the first time....I got you a couple of swimsuits for you to sport :) But I want to wait for a time when Daddy is home to do it so we can get some pictures of your very first time in the pool...I think you'll like it...since you LOVE to kick and splash in the bathtub with your mama :)

You're always such a happy baby little girl...when we go places you always flash your gummy little smile to passers by...and they all have to stop and talk to you...it's kind of annoying for mama and daddy who are trying to get errands done...but you insist on being a social butterfly...and smiling and laughing at so many things.....yesterday on our walk...Daddy was holding you...and we don't know what you were laughing at...but you just started giggling so loud...it was just the cutest thing ever young lady.

I am so in love with you my litle princess....I can't imagine my life without you in it. I am so glad you came into my life and made me your Mother. I love you always and forever Madelynn.

Love,
Your Mama

Madelynn is 4 months old!
Wow...
Madelynn is four months old now!
She had her check up yesterday...
she weighs: 12 lbs. 11 oz. 35% per the doc
her height: 24 inches 40% per the doc
Head circ: 16 inches 40% per the doc

she got 4 shots.....she cried...it was soooooo sad. I nursed her before and after...and it really seemed to help her cope. She was happy after she was done nursing...so that was nice :)

She sleeps through the night every single night...it is AWESOME...and she's been doing this for about two months now...it is great!

She can sit for a short amount of time on her own...the longest has been for two minutes unassisted....but then she gets tired :)

We're holding off on solids still, she's not ready yet...and neither is her little tummy.

Here are some pictures...I take at least one photo a day of her....so there are two sets here....one is from her second month, and the other is from her third month...a photo a day. Enjoy.

this one is from her 3rd month....
Madelynn Louise 3 months old

and this one is from her 2nd month...
