week 21: 5 months

this week we started out at yet another
cowboys basketball game.
this little miss made the big screen!


we had some sad news this week...
this little chunkers had to spend some time in the hospital.
she had a respiratory virus.
Micah's babies cannot seem to catch a break!



this little miss called me and Madyn 
to tell me that she has some diapers to give us!
she is POTTY TRAINED!
she is so silly.


and then when i thought my kiddos were done getting soo big...
i start getting texts from my dad's phone from miss abby j!
i love texting her! she makes me laugh :)


i have THE cutest nieces and nephews!
on Saturday Laramie received a nice blanket of snow.
in all honesty i HATE snow!!!
but when it's calm and thick and fluffy.
i personally love it.
we took little miss out to take some pictures of our growing girl 
and mess around with the camera a bit.
can't believe how big she is getting!
























she also turned officially 
5 MONTHS OLD 
on Saturday!



5 Months of Madyn!
she loves chomping on her index fingers.
she is starting to finally get the hang of sitting up on her own.
she is eating rice cereal, and makes the silliest sounds when we feed it to her.
she rolls over.
she giggles when you tickle her armpits.
she loves to play Peek-A-Boo.
she likes to play with her feet.
she LOVES bath time. she splashed SOOO much!
she takes a short morning nap and a couple pretty decent afternoon naps.
she is the most content little thing! 
except she is starting to HATE going down to sleep.

we love that little girl!
she brings a lot of happiness to us!

week 20: be my valentine

we had a great valentines week!
we started out by going and watching Eric play some basketball.


after his game, we RUSHED over to watch some cowboys basketball!
it was a pretty late night
but mads handled it like a champ!
some days we really don't get that much time with Eric
so i figured it would be OK staying up late that night!



this little girl CRACKS me up!
we were hanging out in the living room and i look over at her
and she is just chilling there
with her bink on her face! lol :)


it was also Tyson and Grandpa Cliften's birthday on the 12th!



sure love them both LOTS!

 this week we also started mads on rice cereal!
that was her little valentines treat.














the next day was Valentine's Day!!!
it's so much fun celebrating with a little one!
even if she has no idea what is going on.








despite what everyone says about Valentine's Day and how 
it's just a made up holiday for greeting card company and
candy factories...
i still love the charm and fun of it all.
mad-dog had a good day with lots of presents!
she's sporting her new pjs Grandma and Grandpa Gillies got for her!







my week consisted of cutting jean squares for a quilt.
it took me forever!
we had soo many jeans saved up so i needed to get them cut all
down so we could have a little bit more room in the closet.


let's just say that after this week we were all a little tuckered out!
i love finding them taking daddy-daughter naps.
they make my heart melt!


 megs kept my spirits up by sending me more pictures!
i really have the best family a girl could ask for.
