Well apparently Madelyn is trying to get in as many milestones as possible before she turns 9 months! So far this month we have learned how to clap, learned how to play peek-a-boo, gotten a third tooth (I KNOW there are more in there...they just haven't shown themselves yet), and now she is scooting all over on her tummy, trying to pull up to get on her knees, AND she pulled up from sitting to standing in her crib all on her own!! Her favorite thing to do is still to crawl into the bottom of her exersaucer. Everytime she gets going, that is the first place she heads to! She is also starting to think a lot of things are just HILARIOUS. She was laughing at a plastic container the other day. Who knows what that was about! OH one more thing I forgot to mention...I'm trying to introduce her to finger foods. I got some gerber puffs and she isn't quite so fond of them yet. I put some cheese on her high chair tray and she just pushed it all to the floor. Then I gave her a teething biscuit and HOLY COW. She didn't want to give that up for anything! She ate almost the whole thing with no problems! She did feed that to herself, while I watched of course, but she doesn't quite understand yet that she can pick up little things, like the puffs or cheese, and put them in her mouth. Which is kind of a good thing now that she is scooting all over the floor...but we just started so I'm sure it will be soon and she'll be picking up everything in sight! Right now she is getting frustrated because she is scooting to her ball, then when she finally reaches it, she goes to grab it and it rolls farther away. Poor baby! It is just so much fun watching her do all these new things. And now she just put her ball into the bottom of her exersaucer and is crawling in after it. She is so smart!
Here is a picture update of how our day went on Friday.
We got up early to go to the hospital so I could get a test done. Which didn't happen. They wanted me to drink this stuff that was so thick I pretty much had to chew it to get it down. Well it didn't stay down for very long...so they sent me home. Next test is July 1st. It should go better than the last one. But look how pretty my baby looks in her skirt! Her new thing is this cheesy grin but I haven't gotten a picture of it yet. Its so stinkin cute!
My husband and his pride and joy. I'm talking about the mower. Its so hot outside and we haven't had any rain so our grass is all dying. Good thing we just bought a $2500 lawn mower to cut the dead grass with!

She got SO dirty. Look at those dirty toes!!
So then we had to take a bath and scrub her clean!
Look at that hair! Its starting to grow grow grow!!
And we played "Where's Maddy" with the towel. Everything goes on her head now.
Then we ended the day with pulling up to standing from sitting in her crib. Big girl!!
And here are some videos!
Here she is after she crawled into the bottom of her exersaucer.
And this one cracks me up. She LOVES to eat, so when she started to pull herself up on her high chair, it was like she was saying "MOM! FEED ME!" haha
And then she stood up in her crib. She is growing up way too fast.
