It has been almost two months since I last updated this blog. So much has happened, including:
- Maddy's First Thanksgiving & Christmas
- My brothers & Rob waged Nerf Gun Wars
- Maddy tried cereal and pears
- She can put on an Exersaucer and Bumbo clinic
- Maddy and Cleo *almost* care about each other
- She continues to be a very outgoing, happy baby
Brace yourself for lots and lots of pictures!
