Happy Turkey Day!!!

Jaime and I are so thankful to have such great family and friends. We are especially grateful for the beautiful miracle God blessed us with this year...our baby girl Madison. We can't thank him enough for bringing her into our lives. We count our blessing everyday and never take any of them for granted. Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving! We certainly did...as this was our 1st Thanksgiving as a family...FINALLY! ;)

Madison's 1st Thanksgiving 11.25.10

My little lady...BLING...BLING!

Today Jaime and I took Madison to have her 4 months pictures taken. I know...a little late but with me going back to work & Jaime's schedule, it took us a minute to find the time to bring her. Anyway, since we were already at the mall I decided to go ahead and have her ears pierced. We really weren't planning on doing it today but I figured why not kill two birds with one stone. We're already here let's just get it over with. Of course daddy wasn't to keen on the idea and wanted me to come back with grandma but I had to put my foot down on that one. If I had to see my baby girl suffer he was going to too! hahaha! Anyway, here she is with her new bling! 

 
She actually didn't do too bad.. Of course she cried, but not as long as I thought she would. My lil' cupcake is a trooper. Love her to pieces!!!

God is good!!!

Baptized into Christ 11.14.10

Praise the Lord! Madison has finally been baptized! We are so thankful to our family and friends that were able to share in this momentous occasion with us. We are grateful to have you all in our lives. Jaime and I can't thank God enough for blessing us with our little miracle Madison...she is our everything! Here are a few photos that were captured during this blessed milestone. All I can say is...God is good!!!

Cereal anyone?!

Now that Madison is 4 months old we're finally able to feed her some solid food. Yay! At her last appt her doctor gave the go ahead on rice cereal so she can "practice" eating from a spoon. Jaime and I weren't sure how'd she react to it since it's a totally different texture than she's use to but to our surprise she liked it more than we thought. It took her a minute to figure out what was going on but once she got the hang of it her mouth opened everytime she saw the spoon. hahaha! Our little monster is a eating machine! Here she is eating rice cereal for the first time...

 

And here are a few pictures Jaime captured while I was feeding her. I love her expressions! hahaha!!! She LOVES rice cereal!

Roll over...roll over...

Today marks one of the first of many milestones for our little Madison. For a couple weeks now she has been trying to roll over but couldn't figure out how exactly do to that since her arm kept getting in the way. Jaime and I would get so excited everytime she'd try hoping we'd be the first to witness such an amazing moment. Unfortunately for us we were both at work when it actually happened. =( Atleast grandma & grandpa were watching her when she finally did it and they sent us a picture. Here she is...

Kinda funny right?! I think she suprised herself as much as grandma & grandpa which is why she's still has her face in the floor. hahaha! A day or so later when daddy was watching her. He was able to capture her on video for me since I still didn't get to see it. Here she is again...

Luckily when I got home that same night, I finally got to witness it for myself. Now she doesn't stop! hahaha! I love our little rolly polly! =D

4 months

Today Madison had her 4 month check up. Jaime and I were so curious to see how much she had grown since her last appointment 2 months ago. Just from looking at her we knew she'd grown a lot. She is definitely heavier and much taller too since her 3 month jammies are way too small now. We assumed she'd be atleast 15 lbs. but to our surprise she was just shy of that. Check out her stats below. Unfortunately, at this appointment she had to have another set of shots. Since she had to be undressed for her check up with her doctor we decided to leave her pants off and cover her with a blanket when we took her to get her shots. When the nurse was finally ready to give her the shots he asked us to remove the blanket. I must say his reaction was pretty hilarious! He couldn't believe how big her thighs were! If I recall correctly the first words out of his mouth were "Wow! I got some HAMMOCKS to work with!" hahaha!!! Jaime and I couldn't help but laugh. The nurse wasn't the only one that gets a kick out of her legs...my family is the same way! Everyone always wants to squeeze and bite them. Poor Madison! hahaha! Anyway, her pediatrician said everything looked good and she's nice and healthy (I think that's an understatement! hahaha!). Her next appointment will be when she turns 6 months which will be in Jan. Can you believe our baby girl will be a half of a year old?! Oh my how time is flying! For now here are her stats and 4 month pics.

Weight: 14 lb 13 oz (74%)

Height: 25 in (76%)

Head Circumference: 40 cm (40%)

* Growth precentile is based on average for her age
