First Kiss!!

We went to Luca's 2nd Birthday Party yesterday. Apparently Maddie believed us when we said Lucas is her boyfriend. She leaned over and kissed him!!! Her first kiss - at 9 months!!! Facio is jealous that she doesn't lean over and kiss him.

Average Thursday

Nothing too excting happened today. Maddie is getting more teeth so she has been more cranky then normal. She ended up in our bed last night because she needed to be soothed to sleep and we are too tired to stay up. She has been sleeping really well the past few weeks. She normally goes to bed around 9pm and is up around 8am for a bottle and then back down till 10ish. We have been blessed with a good sleeper for the most part.

Here is a picture of Maddie during her nap today. She was drinking her bottle and then decided she wanted her binki so she put it in her mouth but left the bottle. SOO precious!

Maddie's Grandpa came over today too! He played with her for a little while.

We are buying a house!!!

So we are finally buying a house!! We hope to close on Oct 15th! We are SUPER excited. Here is a picture of the front of the house (haha we snapped a pic of your house Morgan)!

9 Months ALREADY!!

Well Maddie turned 9 months on Monday but she had her check up today!

The doctor said she was PERFECT.

She weighed 21 lbs 6 oz (85%) and she is 29.5 in long (95%).

So basically, she is super tall and he weight is right on track with her height!

Trip to WV

Maddie and I got back yesterday from our trip to WV. We stayed at my grandparents house 4 days 5 nights. I think Maddie had SOOO much fun. She got to crawl all over their house and get into lots of stuff. The drive up there went much better then anticipated considering its about a 5 hour drive and I did it with no help. My lifesaver was Baby Einstein movies. The ride home went even smoother. We stopped just a few times for no more then 5 min for diaper changes and to eat. My Aunt Debbie was there and she is most awesome lady! I love her sooo much.

Here are some pictures of what we did while there....

So we went to a family reunion and of course Maddie was the youngest there. The reunion was for my grandfather's siblings and their families. Here is a picture of the siblings.

Granddad is the brother in the middle.

Here is the whole gang minus me taking the picture. Maddie is being held by her 3rd cousin.

On Monday, Granny came out to my Grandma's and we had lunch. Here are few pictures from the day. First, Granny and Maddie on the front porch getting to know one another!

We figured Maddie would enjoy the pool and Granny would enjoy watching her. I remember when I was younger Granny would sit on the edge of the pool and yell at all us kids to be careful

She decided to crawl away

That pretty much concludes our trip to WV!
