Whoever Invented This Drawer Did Not Have Children

Maddix figured out that he can open the bottom drawer on the stove. This is such a loud new toy!

I'll Be There

Stinker

Maddix was a skunk for Halloween! All thanks to my mom's crafty talents!

He Found, She Found

Maddix has been crawling for about a month now and of course, finding "new" and "curious" objects...sigh...this is what he found...and loves...

Like alcoholics are to alcohol, Aida is to chewing wires. This was her last midnight fix.

Yup, my phone charger. This will be added to the list of other things "be-headed" such as Cam's phone charger, the iPod charger, the laptop cord, the internet modem cord, etc.

Cute Little Tinker Bum

Maddix is getting soooo big and grown up! He just had his 6 month appointment, he now weighs 15.4 lbs and is 25" long. He is crawling! No joke, he has basically mastered it as of today. His doc says he is about 3 months ahead in mobility skills so he will probably be walking around 9 months. He keeps mom plenty busy and absolutely loves it when dad gets home from work to play. He is so fun and we love him so much. Maddix is the biggest blessing in me and Cam's lives, not to mention his cute smile will melt your heart!

Post Schmost

Ya, so maybe it has been a while. Well, here are a few items of business that I would like to share.

Business #1: BIGGER BOY FOOD
Maddix has started eating more solids. Here is his first time with carrots. (He loves them.)


Business #2: HIGH CHAIR APPARENTLY = NIGHNIGHT
Wish someone would have told me this sooner. This happens everytime I put him in the high chair.


Business #3: NEW PILLOWS
Life's more simple pleasures.


Business #4: MISSION IMPOSSIBLE
I tried to get one good picture of Aida. The little turd was not cooperating. Mission aborted.




(Notice nighnight time in the background.)

Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha

Wondering what is so funny? Look at this...

Look closer...

Closer...

Maddix spit up on Cam's face the other night when they were playing. It went in cam's eyes, mouth and everywhere in between. It was so funny, maybe you had to have been there.

The Cutest Thing To Date...

Splish Splash

Bathtime Cuteness!

Oh Jeffrey...

My brother wrecked on his motorcycle almost 2 weeks ago and here is his story.

He shattered his femur.

After 8 hours of surgery, his bone looked like this...

Which looks like this on the outside.

And spent the rest of his 7 day hospital stay looking like this.

Yep, I did.

I watched the Michael Jackson Memorial today. Hence the music.

Zoofari

Emily was nice enough to take me and Maddix to the Zoo last Wednesday and it was so much fun! Unfortunately, Maddix fell asleep in his stroller about 5 minutes into it and woke up in time for the 33 mile (I swear it was) uphill VERY scenic walk (and by VERY scenic I mean we saw 3 Macaws) to the exit. But all in all, it was a fun afternoon. Thanks Em!

3 Months Old

Maddix is 3 months old now! This past weekend he took his first overnight trip to Britt's cabin---thanks Spaz! It was so much fun! Maddix is now 21.5 inches long and about 11 pounds. He loves putting everything in his mouth and he loves to play in the bath. He also loves to socialize and he can't keep still for the life of him, he is always so busy!

Ode To Greeley Estates

It's been WAY too long since I have had a good slice of Greeley pie. YUM! Salt Lake anytime soon? Hopefully...I will be there.
Some pictures of the last time I saw them...

Maddix's Room

We finally finished (almost) completely the baby room. I still have a pretty bland wall left...any ideas would be appreciated.

Coming Out Of The Closet

Ya, So I have a slight new obsession with the SOAP "General Hospital". I am addicted to all the drama with Luke, Claudia, Ethan, Michael, Jason, Carly, etc. etc...Hate all you want, but it's like a tractor beam...sucked me right in!
