One Month!!


Wow!  One month has already come and gone since giving birth to Madelynne.  She has done a lot of sleeping, pooping, fussing, and being absolutely adorable!  Since then, she has met a ton of new people!  Her Grandma and Grandpa Suiter see her on a regular basis - which she loves!  Aunt Shannon has visited quite a bit as well.  She hasn't seen Uncle Greg in a while, as he has been sick.  :(   Her Grandma Ecklein flew out from Minnesota last weekend and met her for the first time.  She did a lot of cuddling with Grandma while she was here for 3.5 days.

Last Saturday, Madelynne started smiling at me for the first time.  I cannot express how cute she is when she's smiling!  It makes my heart flutter - nothing is better!  She's such a happy baby!

Today was her one month check-up.  She weighs a whopping 10lbs 7oz and is 23.5 inches!  She's gained 2 whole pounds since being discharged from the hospital!!  Woo Hoo!! 

Funny story - at the doctor today, after the nurse was finished taking her temperature (anal), she shot poop all over the room!  The nurse and Chris both had to move out of the way of her stream.  It was so funny!  Chris was all dressed in his work attire - had he stood even 2 inches to the left of where he was standing, he would have gotten pooped on!  She's got some powerful force!

Here are some pictures of Mady during her first month:

I'm so excited to see that you're doing the chair photos too! It's so much fun to see the change. Now it's just "fun" trying to get Evan to sit still!

You look great, by the way! AND I still need to meet this little one. :)
