Happy Memorial Day!
We had a good Memorial Day weekend. The main attraction was watching Madden crawl! He has been getting from place-to-place now for a while, but he is finally crawling EVERYWHERE now! I think Mike and I were more excited than he was. My mom kept telling us that he had been crawling at her house for a long time now...I guess he was just holding out on Mommy and Daddy.
Mimi Morris came over on Saturday to visit. She got to spend some quality time with Madden; which is always nice. She has offered to watch Madden for us while we are teaching Summer school. Mimi is going to get to love on our little guy for 16 whole days!
This week has been filled with Milestones! In addition to crawling, I found Madden sitting up in his crib this morning! So, that means that he can go from his tummy to sitting. Again, my mom says, "He's been doing that for a long time now!" Gosh, Mike and I miss out on so much during the day. He is also waving hi and clapping!
A few weeks ago, I posted about some of Madden's recent fears. Well, he is FEARLESS now! He used to be terrified of this scary looking owl from one of his books that I read to him at night. He now stares at this owl with a smile. I'm so proud! I thought for sure he would forever be traumatized of owls! He also is brave now for the mooing cow and the blender. Isn't it funny how feelings can change so quickly?
Madden loves this lion that Grammy bought for him to play with at her house. He loves it SO much that she bought him a second lion to keep at our house! Grammy knows how to keep our baby boy happy!

Pretty soon he'll be riding around the house on his lion!
Monday was a nice day. Mike, Grammy, Madden, and I went to eat lunch at Campo Verde. The food was less than appetizing, but Madden got to see the train, so it wasn't a total loss. After lunch, Mike drove us to the cemetery. All the flags looked great, but we were sad that Papa didn't have one:( On the way home, Mike was sweet enough to wait patiently in the Snowflake Factory line! They have the best Coconut snow cones! We had a relaxing Memorial Day weekend. Much Love!
Hey, I posted a comment a couple days ago but it didn't show up :( I can't believe how fast Madden is growing and looks like he's almost walking, girl!!! So excitin :)
ReplyDeleteHe's a beautiful kid, I know you guys must be so proud of every new thing he does!
Cute, cute, cute. Madden reminds me so much of you when you were that age. Pretty good memory I have, huh?
