Go Dodgers!!!


So this last week we dressed up in Dodgers outfits to cheer for the team! The ladies looked decidedly cute in their sports gear, as you can see. It worked on Sunday, but we're a little behind in the series, so keep your fingers and toes crossed!

Grandma Kathy and Grandpa John are coming to visit on Wednesday of this week. We are looking forward to their visit and showing off all the things Maddie can do now!

Next week, finals are over and we get to go to Virginia. We're excited and also a little sad because our little family will have to be apart for two months. It will be very hard, but that's why we bought our new webcam. We will be able to see each other every day. Hopefully the two months will go by quickly. The one good thing is that Grandpa Jaime, Grandma Linda, and Auntie Sara will be able to have Maddie close for so long.

The Video

Here is the video that I had done about a month ago. I boycotted all homework and spent a few hours putting the first few months into something we could send to everyone. For those of you who have not seen it, Enjoy!!

Making Progress


Today she rolled over for the first time on the bed! Interestingly enough she rolled over from her back to her tummy, even though usually babies roll over from there tummies to their backs first. Needless to say our little Maddie is going to do things in her own time and her own order! There's no telling her what to do! The question is, does she get her stubborn streak from Mommy or from Daddy?

Baby Maddie is also starting to hold her head up when she lays on her tummy on the floor. We have found that the key is laying her on her back and rolling her back and forth until she gets used to the idea. That seems to be much less traumatic. She is also talking so much! She makes sounds like she really wants to tell us things, and there are definite breaks in it like she is trying to make words. It's the cutest thing ever.
