Catching Up

Well this post won't have pictures because I'm at my mom's house. But I had to blog about a few things that have been happening!



First of all, Maddy is the proud new owner of THREE new teeth! She got her two front teeth in as well as one on the side. I am SO glad they have finally made their appearance. Unfortunately this has not seemed to help her schedule at all as I was hoping it would. She has decided that she doesn't need to nap anymore. She will sleep for about 30 minutes to an hour in the morning at about 10. Then she wants to stay awake for the rest of the day! This has made for a very exhausted mommy and late school work! Around 6pm she starts to get fussy and tired but if I let her go to bed then, she is back up at 8pm. Then there were a couple of nights last week when she randomly woke up in the middle of the night. Last night she was awake from 1:30-4am! I had to come spend the weekend at my mom's because Mitch was working this weekend and I needed to get school work done. Thankfully they were a big help and I even got a head start on work for next week!



Also, the Webbs have all been sick. Mitch got it first, then Maddy, then me. I am feeling better but still have a little bit of my cold lingering and I think the same goes for Maddy. She still has a little bit of a runny nose but otherwise is much better. Because of that and because of the weather, I think we both were getting a little cabin fever. Which is probably another reason we spent the weekend in Hammond.



Maddy is crawling like a madwoman these days. I look away for a second and she is GONE. We have had to break down and buy a baby gate because she has discovered the dog food and water bowls. And she can get in there way too fast. Luckily the baby gate has done the trick for that. Now if I can figure out how to stop her from getting in the computer cords or under the dining room table.



She has so much personality lately. My sister tried to put her down for a nap the other day at my house, and she started SCREAMING so she gave up and when she walked back out to the living room with her, Maddy actually laughed like she knew what was going on! She got out of her nap because she was screaming! That little skunk! Also she is becoming very headstrong. Today she kept trying to get the rocks on my mom's table and I kept telling her no and she did not like that one bit. I am trying to be consistent so she will learn but its hard when she makes that poor little pitiful face.



We are still working on standing up and "cruising" but I think she will get it pretty soon. She doesn't have very good balance yet, and her little feet are always so sweaty that they just slide on the wood floor. My house is always cold cold cold but her feet still sweat. Don't know what's up with that.



One thing I am looking forward to in the next couple of months is Madelyn's first birthday party! Soon I will be deciding on a date and I will begin ordering the supplies! I'm so excited!



Well I am going to try and get some rest and pray that Madelyn stays asleep throughout the night. I need some sleep!
