6 months

Madison turned 6 months on August 19th. How that happened I have no idea, but she is one sweet little girl. I am so grateful to have Madison in our family.
Here are some fun things that you must know about Madison:
~She is ALWAYS happy. She doesn't laugh very easily (unless you are Kelsey) but she smiles at you every time you even look at her.*
    So about 1 week after I wrote this I wanted to change it. Madison is NOT always happy. She is always happy if I am holding her. She wants mom all the time and screams until that happens. If she can hear or see me and I'm not holding her she is unhappy. If she doesn't know I am there or knows that I have left she is happy. It gets sort of old. She wants me to hold her all the time.
~She is a mama's girl. I am the only one that can make her calm down. She will be sitting in a room completely happy but as soon as she sees me she FREAKS out and wants me to hold her. She does this even if its Ethan holding her. Its flattering but sometimes it gets old always to be the one to calm her down.
~ Madison would live her life being held if she could. She LOVES to snuggle and LOVES to be held.
~ She is terribly jumpy :) She jumps when I sneeze, when the vacuum starts, when a door opesn, when a door closes, when a bird flies by etc. Its cute sometimes.
~ Animals terrify her. A dog walked passed her at Aunt Kays house and she freaked. I don't blame her
~ She LOVES water
~She loves to wiggle her hands and is super ticklish
~ Madison can roll both ways, and loves to sit and wants to crawl in the worst way. When she is sitting, she scoots on her bum all over the floor, until she gets to where she wants to be. She also rocks on her bum so that sometimes she is on her hands and knees. As much as I don't want her to crawl, I'm also sick of her landing on her face.

~ Madison loves Kelsey. She laughs at her all the time, follows her everywhere (with her eyes) and always scoots to where Kelsey is.
~ She loves toys especially baby dolls
~ She eats solids, sleeps on her tummy, and melts in the heat
~ When she wants your attention she coos in your direction, smiles at you, and then lifts her arms out to be held.
~ She loves to "talk" and spit. Like raspberry kisses spit. She also loves to screech which sometimes gets  a little old :)
~ She HATES to think that she is missing out and loves to be the center of attention. If she is sitting and you leave the room to grab something she gets so upset. She is a terrible napper because she knows she is missing things. She sleeps well at night, but refuses to nap.
 

We feel so blessed to have Madison in our family. She is such a sweet heart.

She started in the middle of the pillow, but is trying to reach Kelsey. It only took her about 5 minutes of scooting.

Love you Rooster!
