Happy Halloween!

Madelyn is almost 2 months old already! We go to the doctor next week and I'm very anxious to see how big she's gotten...but not so anxious about more shots :/

She is doing really well and we've noticed lots of changes. She sleeps pretty well at night (on average only wakes up once for a feeding), she is very alert and has recently started enjoying her play mat a lot. She likes some 'alone time' to just kick and look around! I've also downloaded some kid friendly stations on Pandora that really seem to soothe her - the more upbeat songs for daytime and lullaby songs for nighttime.

I've recently connected with some other new moms and I've become involved with MOPS (Mothers of Pre-Schoolers) at church. It's been really great to share stories and learn new things.

This week, Madelyn's grandma is in town to visit and make sure she gets all her cuddle time. We are going trick-or-treating tonight with Cousin Aemelia, Auntie Jo, Nanny, Granddad, and Grandma while Daddy is at school. Maddie isn't dressing up this year for Halloween, as Mommy couldn't find a costume that was small enough for her. She does, however, have a onesie that says 'My First Halloween'. And because we've been having some blow-outs in our outfits recently, she will not wear this outfit until right before we leave the house :) Therefore, I don't have pictures of her said outfit yet.

Here are some recent pictures:
