Can you believe great gramma got 2 new great grand-daughters within 2 months?   My Aunt Darcy and cousin Elina are here too!

Great Grandma Fase made Madelynn this beautiful blanket!  What a lucky little girl :)

My wonderful nurse Shalia knit this blanket for Madelynn

I was so excited because Mady held her rattle for the first time!  Yay for developmental milestones!

Cute little kitty cat hat

You can see why we are starting to like hats...the hair- what can you do?

Tuckered out

New Tricks!

Madelynn is showing off how big and strong she is getting by rolling over!

She's also smiling a lot more- I just can't catch it on camera very often.  I love baby grins!
