My first Easter with Madison

Well, the plan was for Madison's mommy to go to church with us, but an unfinished project for school took precedence, so off the three of us went (Pop Pop in the count). It was her first day at the church nursery, though I could not bear to leave her there through Sunday School as well. :)

After church we loaded up with Mommy to go to Duke Gardens for our 7th month/Easter pictures. We got a lot of great pictures. Took more in the neighbors' yards when I got home. Then it was dinner with my sister, her boyfriend, son, and Madison's daddy at mommy's workplace.

A great day. So beautfiul out and to have the freedom to worship a risen Savior, spend the day where we wanted to, and do pretty much whatever we had planned was just a bit of heaven on earth. :)

Spoke too soon about the teeth not causing problems- but still no sign of that little tooth. Just before she approached her 7th month she had her first ear infection, fevers, allergy/cold issues, and endless drool. That pincer grip made its appearance as well. Weighing in at 16.11 lbs. of joy. :) Was a hard week on the little cutie patootie, but probaby won't be the last of its kind.

At least by Easter she was feeling better with exception of the drool, runny nose, and lingering cough. :) Honestly- that just tells one how bad Monday- Friday must have been. LOL.










Definitely not a face only a mother could love. People kept stopping just to watch us taking pictures of her. LOL. She was standing up holding onto potted flowers, trees, sitting in a tree, sitting in flowers- guess they were intrigued. :)
Love this kiddo. Wish I had more pictures of London, but getting pictures of her sitting still is like nailing Jello to the wall. Hope Madison doesn't get that bad. LOL. Maybe in Disney World at month 8 we can get more of the two of them. Hope so.
