Mohawk Maddie

 

Madelyn's hair is getting long enough to do something with it...well, a mohawk is not necessarily "doing hair", but it helps to mix the days up a little.  To make it more feminine, I coined the hairstyle a "lady hawk". 

Todd has discovered that when he whistles, it always makes Madelyn smile. 

So he tried it out as she was falling asleep.

 

Sitting up has been the latest skill that this little one has mastered.  She enjoys being able to see her toys now to play with them better.

Madelyn has learned how to blow.  Before she could blow bubbles, but now she sticks two fingers in her mouth and blows.  Will she be a good whistler or maybe play an instrument?  Also, she is babbling and making new sounds.  The race is on to see if she will say "Da Da" or "Ma Ma" first. 

 As we enter the 6 month stage, we put away the 3 month clothing and brought out the new wardrobe.  If only we all had a complete new set of clothing every three months.

Todd made a comment the other day, which I loved.  He was talking about how Madelyn's cheeks are so chubby, saying "These things are bullet proof."

The discovery of toes keeps Madelyn entertained.  She loves to grab them and if they are covered by socks, she will do everything she can to remove the socks to get to these little toes.  I believe she looks forward to the warm months when she can go barefoot.
