Life has been busy around here lately! Our weekends have been full of parties, BBQ's and family visits.
Madeline is now 8 months old if you can believe it. Where does the time go?!? She gets more mobile by the day. Less than a week after crawling, she was pulling herself up to a standing position by pulling on mom or dad's clothes. Now she can crawl up to anything (couch, coffee tables, stairs) and she can pull herself into a standing position. She now lets go of the furniture and stands for a brief second before falling on her butt. The cutest...she gets excited when mom or dad stands across the room and she smiles, crawls to you, and uses your pant leg to stand up.
She's been learning so much lately. In the past three weeks she has crawled, pulled herself into a standing position, sits up from a lying position, and claps her hands. Our daycare person said that Maddie is a people watcher, and when Pat plays patty-cake with the other kids, Maddie watches. Next thing we now, she's clapping herself!
We hate to admit that she's growing up, but we had to accept it the other day when we had to completely lower her crib mattress. She is able to stand in her crib and has learned that she can jump and bounce on the mattress.
Another update...she now has two lower front teeth!
Here are some newer pictures of our little one...
She loves cell phones. Her favorite toy is Matt's old cell phone. 
She loves popsicles...cherry is her favorite
Maddie is able to balance on her knees without holding on.
