6 months old

Maddie is 6 months old today. It has been wonderful to watch her experience new things about this world. Her facial expressions can tell an entire story as she actively uses her senses. One of the senses that currently seems to be primarily developing is her sense of taste. We like to think that she is just developing her palate and doesn't actually enjoy the tastes of some of the things that she puts in her mouth. Hopefully, her palate will develop a little more...

Family in Seattle

Last week we were able to spend some time with Sarah's sister Bethany and her family out in Seattle. We also met Jude for the first time. It was a wonderful week.

First Bite

Madison's first taste of rice cereal.

I think she liked it!!

Apple Picking

Today we went apple picking. Maddie loved it. She likes to reach for things these days and when she saw the big red round objects hanging in the tree, she couldn't contain herself. We made Johnny Appleseed proud by picking lots of apples...now time for some pie!
