First time in the snow!



Maddie loved the snow!

Returning to work :(

I was so sad to return to work on January 19th, luckily I'm on a part-time schedule and only work three days a week. I get to spend my Monday's and Friday's with my favorite little girl! On Tuesday and Thursday, Maddie is watched by a family friend, her name is Libby. Maddie loves Libby, she lights up when we drop her off at Libby's house. Libby also watches her grandson Luke and I'm told that Maddie and Luke are already buddies! I look forward to my texts from Libby with pictures of Maddie and Luke playing, it's the highlight of my day! On Wednesday, Claudette (better known as Gram) watches Maddie. I know Maddie loves spending her day with Gram and vice versa and Gram is always so sweet to prepare dinner for me and Clay after a long day at work. She's the best, the whole family looks forward to Wednesday's! Although it's hard to be at work and missing my baby girl, I know she's in the best hands!

The first two months...

Madelyn Jane was born on October 27, 2009 at 2:31 in the afternoon. She's our little ham, such a happy persona and sweet as can be. She's curious like her mom and easy going like her dad. We thank God everyday for her, our precious gift!

The first few weeks were like any other with a newborn baby...sleepless! Little Maddie had her days and nights confused for what seemed like forever (a week and a half) and Mommy and Daddy didn't get much sleep. We didn't care, I could have stared at her all day and night. After a few weeks, it was Thanksgiving- one of our favorite holidays! Maddie enjoyed her first Turkey Day!

Next up- Christmas!!! Maddie observed many holidays to only be 2 months old! She really enjoyed Christmas and got lots and lots of gifts!
