6 weeks Old!

Hello friends and family,

We wanted to start this blog so we could tell everyone a little about our sweetheart! Madelyn Jo was born on March 26, 2009 at 8:14 in the evening. She weighed 5 lbs. 6 oz. and was 20 1/2 inches long! We were super excited that everything happened just as it should have and we were excited to finally meet our healthy baby girl.

Now...6 weeks have gone by and we have had so much going on! She is slightly over 8 pounds and growing strong!! Mom started back to work last week and Madelyn is enjoying her time at home with Daddy!! She is started to stay awake more during the day now, but still enjoys keeping us up sometimes at night! She is lifting her head and searching for things when shaking a rattle or toy!

Madelyn has had new friends that have joined her in the world over the last month or so! Her friends Ella and Ethan came only a week after Madelyn was born and her friend Adeline was born just this week! We cannot wait to see them all running around together! We are sure they will all LoVe getting into trouble!! Madelyn loves going on stroller rides and swinging in her swing! We also think she is going to love fashion...because she sure loves her dresses :0)

She loves her big brother Tank, and he sure loves her! He is even getting used to her crying at night and ignores her! The last 6 weeks have been great! We are all adjusting to our new life together!! We are blessed to have such a wonderful little girl!!
