My Day. Written by Madelyn

5:30 - 7:30 WAKE UP MOMMY!!!!! FEED ME!!!

8:00-9:00ish?? Playtime


10ish I get worn out and need to rest my neck so I talk to mommy


Followed by a nap
45 min later....
Im up again. Mommy normally lets my brother and sister out while I am either playing or napping. They came inside because they wouldnt stop barking at the FedEx lady who brought me something new
My brother and sister had to check it out first. Nothing gets past them...


I finally got to sit in it and since the dogs wouldn't leave me alone Mommy thought it would be a great idea to let me help her do the dishes and even clean up the house.

Roxie even helped mommy clean up today. She started nudging mommy's leg while we did dishes and it was because Roxie had a leaf in her mouth. She's such a good helper.

We did a little bit of scrapbooking today too. I am really loving my new Bumbo seat.

Then a short cat nap again

After all of that we will get out of the house if its only up to walmart or to walk around the yard or down the street but its always good to get out for a little bit.
We will come home and play then I cant take it anymore I will need a long nap.

In the evening my brother and sister just love to play sometimes they even play with me. Or at least it seems like it... I think I had a rock, leaf, bug or something under my saucer that Roxie wanted.


So after I get my bath I will fall asleep while I eat and mommy will bring me upstairs to my room and off to bed I go! When mommy comes back downstairs, her seat is always taken by Roxie.





(Mommy Note: all of these pictures and videos were taken in a course of a few days and she does not live in her PJ's even though most of my pictures it seems like she does. Also, I figured you werent all that excited to read about everytime she eats, poops or sleeps. Don't worry....she does all of those things and more.)

Mini Matthew

So people are constantly telling me "Oh she looks just like Matthew" I completely agree and after taking this picture yesterday I dont believe he could deny her to a blind judge.

This picture was taken of him when she was about 2 weeks old.


Along with the fact that she looks JUST like him, her bodly functions are exactly like his as well..... (I wont go into more detail but im sure you get the point)

She might look like him, have his bodly functions, and get the sleeping gene from him but I do hope that down the line she gets SOMETHING from me.

Shorties......

Unfortunately Madelyn and I were away from the pups and Matthew the last couple days so we don’t have much to update with but I do have a few shorts.

This past spring/summer a bird nest was built right above our side door inside our carport. In a course of a week I had picked up at least 4-5 dead birds. I used to call them our suicide birds. Now that it is fall I am starting to notice that we have suicide frogs. A week ago I found a frog at the bottom of our steps and today Roxie found one in our basement (yes, she was flipping out about it). I really am interested what winter will bring.

As I was feeding Madelyn today on the couch, Roxie decided to come up and snuggle me. She was at first head on my shoulder but soon moved and decided Madelyn was more comfortable so she rested her nose under her legs. Roxie didn’t seem to mind that after eating Maddy was pulling on her ear.

Madelyn watched her first soccer game this weekend. She went with her Nana Barb and Pop Pop Ron to Aunt Allison’s soccer game.
She also went to see Grammy and Grandpa Van and Great Mamaw Jane showed up too!

Madelyn is now 22 ½ inches long, 11 lbs 9oz and her head measurement is in the 75th percentile. She must have got it from her daddy.

Her Aunt Chels and Uncle T got married this weekend so she was able to finally meet her Uncle T and even see Aunt Stacy.

Roxie does not like when Matthew wears socks. She tends to attack his feet. –One of the funniest things to watch when Matthew comes home from work. Please know that they are only playing in this and Sorry for the poor quality.



Being gone for a few days was really nice but I think Madelyn and myself were happy to be back home with the our hairy family members.
