A January Update

Happy 2012, everyone!

Perhaps my New Year's Resolution should have been to be more diligent with my blog posts. Le sigh. We have tons of pictures on our camera, but for now, the iPhone photos will have to suffice :)

Madelyn has been lots of fun lately. She makes all sorts of hilarious noises - growling, squealing, screaming, etc. She is definitely experimenting with her vocal cords. She is doing much better at tummy time (although she still hates it), and she is rolling over! She can roll in both directions and usually does better at rolling over in her crib instead of on the floor. We've captured a video of it and I will post the video soon. At her last doctor appointment, she weighed 14 lbs. 3 oz and was 26 inches long! We cannot believe how quickly 4 1/2 months have gone by!



Christmas Day in her Santa outfit.
  
Christmas Day again

  
Her Christmas teddy bear outfit

 
The day after Christmas...'watching' TV with Daddy.

 
4 months old!

 
She gets very ferocious on her playmat!
 
Holding her own bottle...even if it was for just a split second!
 
We went for a walk outside in the Baby Bjorn and a hat was needed. We only had this adorable little newborn size bonnet. Didn't fit so well and didn't shade so well. Oops.


Cousin Jay was in town and got to meet Madelyn for the first time!


Car ride on her first trip to Phoenix to watch Grandma run the 1/2 marathon!
  
Not so interested in the car ride.


Her first time in a hotel room


Intently watching 'Winnie the Pooh'. She loves the lights and sounds on the TV!!! Uh oh.
 
Tummy time in her crib.

An adorable outfit :)
