Can't Stop Her Now!



Maddy has been crawling for a few months now...started with the army crawl, then regular crawling, and now we are pulling up onto objects and cruising from one place to another. We have not walked yet, but I know that she is so close. There are times where she lets go of something for a couple of seconds...but then BOOM down to the ground. Once she discovered each new skill, she is unstoppable!! It is a lot of fun chasing her down the hall or even just in the living room in her farm play gym! :) I love this sassy pose!!


Here is the Farm that Maddy loves to play in and with! There is so much to do, and both Kyle and I have memorized all of the songs that it plays! LOL It would be pretty interesting if you caught any of the conversation that happens in our place these days...it is either the farm songs or us saying all of the objects that Maddy points to ALL OF THE TIME. She is just one inquisitive little girl and I think we have said mirror, light, scarecrow, and TV like 1 million times! It is so cute!! She is a little smarty pants!




Mommy and Maddy have a great time wherever we go...do you think she looks anything like me?! :)



Can you see what Maddy LOVES? She is crazy about our phones and crawls right for either of them if she sees it. She only likes it when she can see that it is all lit up! The video at the bottom of this post shows a video of her playing with the phone while we were watching Glee!! She is a Gleek just like ME! :)
Watch for the screen to go black and see what she does...

Happy Fall



It is so nice that it is finally fall...this weather is perfect and so nice to be outside with Madelynn! Her first fall has been very eventful and we have been SUPER busy...

We celebrated Mommy's 26th birthday with dinners at LouMalnati's (just the 3 of us) and Chevy's (with family) Both dinners were wonderful, and I had to share a couple of pictures from them...Maddy LOVE LOVE LOVES pizza crust from Lou's just like her Mommy! She definitely made herself comfortable in that highchair! :)

















We went to the Apple Orchard last week and had a great time!! When we got there it was SO busy but then we found a great bunch of apples!! Maddy liked the apples once she figured out that they tasted good, but we saw some pumpkins and she wanted NOTHING to do with them...hopefully she will like them better when we go to the Pumpkin Patch next weekend!!

Here are some fun shots of the day at Apple Holler!! :)

























We went to the Chicago Fire game on Saturday at 3pm and it was Madelynn's first Fire game EVER!! :) She was all decked out in her Fire gear (thanks Uncle Juice for the awesome soccer kit) and loved looking around at all of the people. I also put a video on here of her on the way home...we were convinced that she would crash right when we started leaving, but she was talking up a storm!! ENJOY watching!! :)



We have been having a great time with our baby girl and I know I say it all of the time, but I am SO blessed to have such an amazing family!! I had to put this picture on here, it melts my heart! <3

So many memories to come...
