Success

So our first night sleeping in the big girl bed was a success. No fallin off the bed. Went right to sleep (after she layed there a few minutes singing to herself.) and best of all, SHE SLEPT ALL NIGHT LONG!!! YEA!! Thats exciting. She does so good. She knows that her toys are just a slide off the bed, she knows she can go open the dresser drawer and pull all of the clothes out... but she just stays on her bed like a good girl. Now I know that its only the first night and bad things could happen.... but Im gonna hope that she keeps doin just like this! She stayed in her bed till I came and got her, just like she would in her crib. She is such a good girl. I hope that this continues to be the better for her!

She is quiet the crazy sleeper so I was a little nervous about her falling off the bed.

This is how she fell asleep

In case you haven't heard.. on Tuesdays, at the Chick Fil A in the mall, its family night. For every Combo meal you buy, you get a free kids meal and then when your done, you get an ice cream and they have toppings out for you to put on your ice cream. Its really neat. Anyways, we went and did that last night and had lots of fun... the one time I didnt have my camera... I wanted it so bad. Madelynn was hilarious eating her ice cream. Then we went to this store and played with the hermit crabs another picture moment. Anyways... we had lots of fun. Madelynn got to wear some of her new clothes yesterday cuz it was pretty cool outside... lemme tell ya, I was kinda sad about having to put pants on her and covering up those chubby legs that I love to look at and squeeze... but those litle jeans on her are pretty darn cute if I might say so myself.

This is about the best we could get... do you see those shoes??? (There Converse in case you cant tell) That was most definitely a splurge... but we saw them and tried em on her and couldnt leave them at the store. Sooooo cute!!

Ok.. I know Im babbling a little but... Madelynn, as we all know, doesn't care to walk... so she has gotten to where she uses her Mater truck as a walker... ya know.. like an old lady who has to get around WITH a walker. When they first start its fun and cute to walk across the living room and back and forth but she has gotten to where she uses it to actually get around to walk to get a book, to walk to go in the kitchen to play with her magnets on the fridge. Walk to her bedroom to play with toys. Across the living room to be closer to me.... HELLO???? Lose the mater and you got it! She has gotten pretty fast at it to... Does she not get the clue?? Its kinda funny.

(please excuse the dang pacifier in all the pictures... Im trying to not let her have it so much.. but when little sister always has one that she can (and does) take... its pretty much impossible for her not to have one)

Payton is getting to where she is awake alot more and kinda got her own little schedule down. So she is getting more fun! Madelynn still adores her. She tried and tried to give her some of her chicken nuggets last night. It was so sweet, she just doesnt understand so its hard and she gets frustrated... soon enough she'll be able to feed her. We (tried) to do some tummy time yesterday, which she absolutely hates. As you can see, it was unsuccessful.

she slid her little way right off the little boppy and fell asleep.

she is getting soooo big!
