Ta Da The Video Worked!

She's my porcelain doll.



She loves the swing, thank you Grandma W. unfortunately she likes the high setting even though it seems like she's about to take flight.



She's almost grown out of the premie clothes yay!




Maddie inherited perma scowl, she got this from Jon not Mom.

Hooray I think this worked?? Well lately I've been trying to film or capture Maddie whenever she's got a cute outfit on or when I randomly feel like it. I love these PJs Charee, they fit perfectly. I have to thank my sisters for sending down all the clothes etc. because I went from having a few things to having many things. It has been soooo helpful. Very little has happened this past week. But Maddie had her two week appt. whimpered when they stuck her heal for the BKU then just sat there, she so tough I had to hold her so I wouldn't have to watch the blood draw. They weighed her too, and she's now a whoopin 6lbs 6oz. The doctor said she must be keeping something down thats like a pound in a week. We're amazed at how much she changes EVERY day. Even Amanda will come over and say she looks different. I think she's maturing from a newborn into alittle girl. Jon also has made some progress :) he asked me this morning if I'd like him to take a turn on the weekends nightly feedings halehueja! She eats every 3-4 hours and its REALLY taken its toll, I think Jon feels if he takes one shift my mood will change drastically and it probably will. No sleep = grumpy Ju. As much as I'd like to give up shifts I hate not being the one watching my child, and I'm probably way over protective hopefully it wears off cause I'd really like to go shop for myself or go finish up my tanning package. But I shouldn't complain cause I've taken her to Walmart twice now don't worry she was completely covered the whole time, and out to sushi with Kelly and Steph. Have I mentioned how Jon introduced me to a whole different world, I LOVE sushi. Anyhow not much else, Amanda and I are planning to go to Mervyns this week there having a close out sale, incase you haven't heard the store went bankrupt. Their loss is our gain, hopefully.

I tried to post a video...what the?

Took this picture today along with some video clips. It's not real exciting video but would give everyone at home an idea of what Maddie looks like. Don't worry that is a binky but she is still nursing just fine. Actually really well in fact the way she snorts makes me want to call her miss piggy. I'll just have to stop calling her that before she understands what it means. So thanks for all the suggestions as far as the nickname goes but now I just feel more confused. Oh and if any knows how to post videos please let me know cause I tried and it never showed up. My mom left today, the real challenge begins ahhh!

Halloween pic & 4 generations

Meow! This onesie is a size premie and it fits, well pretty much. These are the only pants she owns that fits. Anyone know where to buy black newborn leggins? Target didn't have black, boo.


She got this halloween knit hat from the NICU. I was tempted to go around my appartment and knock doors just to show them my baby then ask for candy. Maybe next year :)



This is a 4 generation picture. Great gma, baby, gma, & mom. Maybe tonight I'll get dressed up and get out of the house.

I wanted to show off her great legs, dad better be worried. No rolls here.

My little sister Katie made this adorable headband. Thanks Kate. Gma put it on her and giggled its the first thing that has actually fit her. Then Gma wanted to take pictures.

I am so thankful for mothers. My house would be a mess, me and my husband would be starving, my child would have nothing to wear or sleep in, and I would be a total zombie. Love you mom.

Nickname Rules?

So yesterday my mom started asking me how I spelt Maddie? I said M-a-d-d-i-e and she was like "what?", then proceded to tell me that I can't nickname her that because it had two Ds. I didn't know there was a rule. Then she started suggesting alternative spelling and Jon spoke telling me how he would have spelt it. So here's my question and I'm looking for feedback. How would you spell it?

Maddie?
Madee?
Maddy?
