The past few weeks have been full of excitement as M has experienced many "firsts." Her first Halloween, crawling, dancing, climbing on everything, screaming, playing peek a boo, going to sleep without crying(MIRACLE), FIRST TOOTH and first words. It's been busy at our house!

Reaching High!
We could not wait for her to start crawling and now??? While it's so fun to see her progress, man you have to watch her like a hawk! She notices EVERYTHING! She has quickly learned the word "No." I sometimes feel like that's all I say... and apparently it is, because that was her first word!!!
A couple weeks ago I was changing her gnarly diaper, and she stuck her hand in it. Gross! So I said, "Maddie No no!!" And she yelled, "No no!" So I said again,"No no." Plain as day she said it right back to me. I was so proud... and then I felt kind of bad that NO was her first real word. SO I've decided that I say no too much and I am never going to tell her no again. Ha ha!

Yes she has a coke in her hands, and since I can't tell her no anymore, hey what baby wants...baby gets! Just kidding- I didn't even give her a sip!
We spent some time at my parents house, and they have a little yorkie who is not so found of Little M. She would always bark at her. So Maddie now not only says "No no no!" She also points her finger at the dog, or me, or whoever she happens to be telling no to and shakes it back and forth as she is telling you no. I think I've created a monster!
