Couldn't Resist

Madelyn & Bear

As Madelyn lie on the floor snuggling with her bear, Payton couldn't resist coming to shove the Nuk in her mouth. Madelyn, unlike Payton, does not use the Nuk. But since Payton found it, she thought it needed to go in her mouth. All the while, she is picking her nose.

Swimming

Madelyn went for her first swim on Saturday at Papa and Nana's house! She loves the pool. I guess I shouldn't be surprised, because she also enjoys taking baths. Her swimsuit is the one that Payton wore when she was a 1 year old. It fit her to a "T".

Our fearless Payton, was showing off her pool skills on this day too. She likes to jump in off the side of the pool all by herself. The swimming lessons did wonders for her comfort level in the water! I'm sure that she will be swimming all by herself next year.

Madelyn ~ 16 Weeks

My little Gerber Baby

is 16 weeks old!

And is hanging on for dear life.

Madelyn Amelia is growing up so fast! She turned 16 weeks on July 31st, and officially rolled over all by herself on July 30th. Needless to say, she was not very impressed, and cried frantically until I came to get her!

Madelyn is wearing 3-6 month clothing and a size 2 in diapers. In comparison, at this age, Payton was barely in size 3 month clothes and was a size 1 in diapers. Madelyn is definitely a healthy eater. A typical feeding is 8 ounces! She generally sleeps 11-13 hours a night. Usually, going to bed at 8PM and waking up at 8AM. Madelyn spends her days admiring Payton's every move, eating, and sleeping!

She is the best little baby girl!
