Note: I wrote this last weekend and still haven't managed to find pictures...sorry!

Sorry for the lag in posts and pictures. I believe Brad is working on several new video clips.



Madeline is 4 months old now! It's unbelievable how fast she changes. At her 4 month appointment, she was 24 inches long and 13 pounds.



She is now rolling over incessantly and sitting up on her own for small chunks of time. Last week we started giving her cereal, which does not seem to impress her. Bananas are much tastier! She is trying really hard to move around while on her tummy, but her arms just aren't quite strong enough to propel her yet. She is good at pushing her butt up in the air and pushing backwards.



Most of the time she is just chattering away and laughing and happy as can be!

Today we had an absolutely wonderful day with Madeline. It was so nice not to have any obligations and just to hang out at our house. She has started rolling from her back to belly and loves to play on her tummy for ridiculously long periods of time. We tried out the doorway jumper and she loves it! She also is able to sit up while using her hands to hold herself steady. (More pictures to come on these).

Today's big event was the SWIMMING POOL! First off, the swimsuit that I got her a while back that was big on her...definitely too small now....I guess we'll be doing some shopping this week. Second, even though it was an absolutely gorgeous day, the pool seemed to be about 40 degrees. Despite the fact that Brad and I were freezing, Madeline didn't seem to mind. She had fun kicking, splashing, and riding in her inflatable boat. I think we'll be back again soon!
