Wrong team...

This is what my child looks like in the morning... Looks like she might a Longhorn fan... We cannot have that happen, must change immediately! If she is going to cheer for any team in the Big 12, it will be KU, Rock Chalk Jayhawk KU! She needs to learn that cheer. She also needs to learn Gooooo Dawgs... sic'em...woof woof woof woof! An if NaiNai knows the cheer for Northwestern, she can learn that, I'm not too sure of that one. She is going GREAT! She looks like she might be rolling over soon, she is almost there; just can't quite get the momentum with the leg. She turns over on her side and gets the leg going, but just not enough. I am OK with that for now, because once she learns to roll, she will learn to crawl. And then it is all over! She is growing up too fast for me, but that is ok. I am loving every different stage. Especially that she sleeps for 11-12 a night! Can't beat that.

July 4th


Here is a picture of Maddie and me on the 4th of July. We had a great time at the fireworks, and she was a great little one. She was a little scared when the finale happened with the loud bangs, but other than that, she was great!

Grandparents

Here is a picture of Grandpa Russo with Madison. He won't admit liking to hold her, but I know he does. He is great with her when they are over. Here is Grandma Russo with Madison. She just adores her little granddaughter and cannot get enough of her. Can you blame her, look at Madison :)


Here are a few new pictures. I have more to share, but I cannot seem to find the time at home to get on the computer and get them up. Madison is growing so quickly. I cannot believe that she is just over 3 months, where has the time gone. My sister took these pictures for me while they were here last time. I love them!This is our first non-hospital family photo! I love saying "our family", it means so much to me. This is one of my favorite pictures. It has all four generations of women!
This one has all the women, except Aunt Diane, in our family. Four generations in one room, wow!Thanks Kadie for taking the pictures, I love them! Hopefully many more of these to come in the future.

The Bumbo!

Here is a picture of Maddie using a bumbo; we visited my friend last night and we put her in her sons, Jonathon, bumbo. She was just hanging out in there. So cute! I will hopefully have a better picture to post once I get to look at the camera, but thought this was cute!

Fun Pictures!

Here is a picture that my sister took of Maddie and me when they were here last week. Since I am always the one taking the pictures around here, there were only a few pictures of just me and my baby girl. There are more to come, but thought I would post this one since I have this one already! Here are two pictures that make me smile everytime I see them. I love her smile/giggle, it melts my heart! I would stare at her all day long if I could.



She has changed so much from when she was born, it is crazy. She looks nothing like that anymore, she is growing so much, and so quickly. She is starting to grab at things, like my hair! But she will grab your fingers, her toys, and even her pacifier.
She is sleeping through the night, 10-12 hours of sleep, which I am loving. I am going back to work this week, which makes me so very sad, but I know that she will be in good hands at the daycare, but I will miss her so much. The past 11.5 weeks has flown by way to quickly. So word to the wise, treasure every minute that you have with them before you have to go back to work. And if you are a stay at home mom, I am so jealous of you!
She is already in size 3-6 months, and some 6 months clothes. I cannot believe how quickly she has grown out of her 0-3 clothes. Made me so sad when I had to pack those away, luckily my friend is having a girl next month, so maybe I will be able to see them again soon!
Once I get more pictures, I'll post!
