Oh boy, the pain that one little tooth has caused us is unbelievable. Last week Madi's tooth popped through and you would think we had a different baby living in this house. The next day, she was taking naps again, sleeping all night, going down without a fuss, AMAZING!!! We also started a bedtime routine and it works!! She is asleep within 15 minutes now and I have at least 2 hours every night to sit and do nothing before I have to go to bed. I tell you what, we have to remember these things and hopefully number 2 will be much easier.

Madi is also a crawling fool now!! She gets where she wants to go, usually into things she isn't supposed to be into, mainly the DVD player and movies under the tv (time to move those). Now she just needs to learn to get herself into a sitting position on her own and we will be set. She is so close but just won't slide her hand to push herself up yet. We practice. It will probably be like crawling, it will just happen on its own one day.

Today is Madi's 8 month birthday. It has gone so fast!! Today is also my mom and dad's 27th Anniversary, Happy Anniversary!!!

Stay warm and have a great weekend!!

Love, Amy
