Clapping!

Maddies new trick is clapping. Before she didn't really clap, just waved her hands while we clapped. But last night she was clapping and clapping and clapping! It was super cute!!

I gonna get you Tank!

This is kinda hard to see because it is taken using my phone camera, but MJ loves to tackle and play with Tank now! She is so funny with him!

Zzzzzz

Tired BABY!

Swimming Lessons!

We started swimming lessons this week. She did so good! Josh and her went this time and they got to sing and swim in a circle, they practiced the back float, blowing bubbles, and jumping in the pool! She did so great, no tears, but came out BLUE because she was cold!!

Here is MJ in her blue swim suit. She has about 5 different suits because I found them on clearance last year! Watch her blog for some more of her cute suits!

Wisconsin Trip

We went and visited our friends Greg and Kim in Wisconsin this past weekend. We spent the night in a hotel and got to let the babies swim! It was fun to see them play together! They had lots of fun!

Daddies with the babies!

Bath time...after the pool! They kept stealing the wash clothes from each other!

SWIM SWIM SWIM!

Yummy Yummy PASTA

MJ has been enjoying her food so much more now! We have been giving her the dinner that we eat for a few weeks now and she is getting really good at feeding herself. Yesterday I tried two times to give her baby food and she wanted nothing to do with it! I guess its "Big Girl" food for her now!

Mommy...where's my food?

Messy face!

Look at TROUBLE!

I was putting away groceries and I turned around and found MJ helping me by taking out the powdered sugar! She sprinkled it all over the floor and then Tank came along to eat it up! It was quite funny to see!

Look what I did Mommy and Daddy!

MJ got a Cozy Coupe!

Madelyn went to Grandma and Grandpa Nohava's house on Saturday to find a cozy coupe sitting in the living room! I had one when I was little and it was my favorite toy. They surprised her with one and she thinks it is the coolest thing in the world! Thank you Grandma and Grandpa!!!

THis is one of her new faces... scrunchie face!

Look at what I got Mommy and Daddy!!!

Happy New Year!!!

We didn't do much for New Years this year. Josh had to work over night so we went to my brother and sister-in-laws and at lots of food and played games! Maddie took a long evening nap and made it to see the ball drop! She got lots of kisses!!

We can now put her hair in pig tails! Its my favorite! (Thanks Grandma Nomi for doing it once so we could see how cute it was!!!)

Kisses at midnight!

9 mOnTh ChEcK-Up

We went to go see Dr. Ripley today and we had great news! Madelyn is growing just like she should and the Doc was very excited to see how big she is already getting! We found out that last month when the student nurse measured her she actually didn't measure right! She is in the 75% of her height! (Not the 10th like last time!!!) She is growing in weight and now weighs 16 pounds and is in the 10.75 percentile. Still a peanut but a perfect one!

We told Dr. Ripley that she stands by herself now and she was very surprised. She said "Get Ready!" Maddie already gets every place she wants to go...we only have a break when she is sleeping in her crib! She is still working on DaDaDa...but can say MaMaMa!
