Let the Good Times Roll

We have been so busy since Christmas! A few days after Christmas Jonathan got a stomach bug so we spent New Year's around the house. We are so grateful that the babies did not get it! I didn't either! Poor guy stayed in his room for a few days....way to spend your days off from work! Luke and Madison are growing so fast! They are about 8 1/2 months old! We will catch you up on what they are doing now :)

Madison
-She is scooting all over the place. She found the kitchen and now realizes that there are other rooms in the house besides the den!
-She loves to stand up on anything. She pulls up and stands on the couch, the toy box, toys, and anyone that she can get a hold of their leg.
-She loves her push toy. She walks with it or by you holding her hands. She wears us out! She could walk all day!
-She is saying "Baabaabaa" now. She makes the funniest faces when she does it.
-She loves to pick up food now and eats just about everything we give her. This past week she has decided she would rather have her fruit or cereal than her vegetables. She is learning that Mama and Daddy don't give in and she has to have her vegetable first :)
-My favorite time with Madison right now is when we go get her up in the morning. She gets SO excited to see us! She squeals with delight and goes nuts when we get her up!!
-Madison, you are our joy! You brighten our days and make us laugh all the time. Your sweet personality is coming through and we can't wait to see what God has planed for you!


Luke
-He is not crawling yet but gets up on all fours and rocks!
-He is our content little fella! He loves to be put wherever...in the pack-n-play, the jumper, the Exersaucer, the floor, or be held!
-He is our talker right now (which I am trying to tell him to enjoy...I know once Madison starts I am not sure she will stop!) He says "Mama Mama" and "Dada Dada" all the time!
-He loves everything we give him! He loves carrots (see the orange nose!). He does make the best face when we finish the vegetable and give him the first bite of fruit! I guess the tart, sweet taste catches him off guard!
-He is our cuddle bug! He loves to be held and we could snuggle with him all day!
-When he is in his swing he loves for you to play "I'm gonna get you" His laugh is priceless!
-Luke, you are our joy! You make our hearts smile! You always want your hand on Madison and that makes me want to cry just thinking about how you will protect her! You have the sweetest personality and we can't wait to see the man of God you will become!

Here are some other fun pics! :)

My new favorite way she sits!!!

She crawled in the basket to get this toy...oh Madison there was such and easier way but we will let you figure it out :)

Rub a dub dub...two babies in a tub



Baby it's cold outside!

We we went through a period where we were really struggling with naps! This was after dinner...we finished feeding them and then we left them in their seats with toys so we could eat our dinner. About 5 minutes into it she falls asleep! Poor thing. We are now back on track with naps (thank you Lord)!!!

He loves to tuck his bottom lip under and say "mmmmmm"

Beautiful little girl!
