My little lovebug:)

I guess it's time to update since it's been almost 3 weeks. These last 3 weeks have been super busy as Madelyn is getting bigger and more alert every day. She had her 1 month check up almost 2 weeks ago and she weighed in at 9 lbs 2.5 oz and had grown an inch in length!! She's most likely pushing 10 lbs by now! I can't believe how fast the time flies with her in our life. The most exciting day was when she had her very first "real" smile for Robert and I. It was a sunday morning, 2 weeks ago and ever since she has become such a smiley little bug! She is still sleeping about 5 hours at night with some exceptions. We're working on her tummy time and building up to 10 minutes at a time. Sometimes she's very cooperative and will lift her head high, other times she just gets so flustered with her momma and decides its time to eat instead, and other times she decides she's too tired and lays her head down to go to sleep. hahha It's pretty cute, whatever day she decides it's going to be.

We've had a couple of visitors in the last couple of weeks. Robert's Aunt Terri was here last weekend and his sister LaNae is here with us now. Madelyn's enjoyed meeting her new Aunts:) Just 3 short weeks and we will be making a trip back to Michigan for Easter. I can't wait to see everyone and for them to all meet our Madelyn.

Another big accomplishment thus far has been a trip to the mall and dinner out a few different times. She's been very good for us when we're out. She's really become alert of what's happening around her and it's becoming more and more difficult for her to just sleep through all the action. She just doesn't want to miss a thing in her new world! I can't believe how much she has grown. She looks less like a newborn and more like a baby each day. The fun's just beginning!
