Proof....

That I do let other people hold Madilyn! Of course I hold her a lot too...

Maddie Meets....

Great Grandpa and Uncle Cody! Of course they are as enamored with her as we are!

6 lbs 13 oz

Definitely a step in the right direction! The home nurse (leslie) came yesterday afternoon and gave her a checkup, and weighed her. All is well and she has gained an ounce a day since her last dr. appt! Lindsay and Maddie spent last night with us and we thought it would be fun to give her a bath, then somehow she found her thumb!

Gotta love 70 MPH winds!

This is where our puppy pen was this morning when we woke up, not exactly where we intended! (don't worry we moved the puppies last nite, anticipating the worst) somehow we still have power for the time being but we will have a lot to clean up as soon as the winds die down. Why do we live here???????

More baby pictures!

The latest picture of Madilyn, is it just me or is she getting even cuter?

Madilyn

I finally got the pictures off my phone that we took last nite while she was awake!

Madilyn Rae--born November 4,2007

7lbs 2 oz, 19" at 7:30 a.m. Of course she is the most beautiful baby in the world! Apparently she was waiting for her due date so she could be right on time, and once she started she came quickly. Lindsay and Jake checked into the hospital at 4:30 in the morning after her water broke at home at 3:30 in the morning. Lindsay went from being dialated 4 cm to 9 1/2 cm by 6:50, and by 7:30 had little Madilyn pushed out into the world. Everything went well and both mother and baby are fine!
