STATS!!!

Ok so I took Maddy in for her 4 month check up today and here are her stats.

Weight: 15 lbs 13 oz 75% for age
Height: 26 inches that's 90% for her age
Head: 16 1/4 inches. That is in the 50% range for her age.

Maddy is growing like a weed. As you can tell she is a tall roley poley. I love it. The doctor said she likes to see her babies chubby. It means they are being feed right and growing. So I guess we are doing an ok job with this kid. :)

We started her on rice cereal yesterday. She LOVED it. She actually liked it more then her bottle. :) Here are a few pictures of her first rice cereal experience.

Getting ready

Yummy!!!
I think this face shows that she approved!

Fun and cute pictures of Maddy

Here are some fun and cute pictures of Maddy.
This one is of here after her bath. Uncle Eric and Aunt Amber gave her this robe for Christmas. To cute This picture is Ben's favorite. The kids we playing with her and one of them decided to put the glasses on her. I love it!

Here she is sporting the new bow I made her. I also really like this out fit. It is the softest sweater I have ever felt.

Look at that cute smile. :)

A look at the whole out fit. I love it. And yes those are sparkly silver Converse shoes she is wearing. It just added the final touch to the out fit.

Here she is asleep in her car seat later that day. She must have wiggled and got her head band over her eyes. It made for a great close up of the bow. :)
And this picture was taken last Sunday. The dress she has on is from a good friend of mine. Nancy Dunham. I love this dress. It came with this hat and velvet shoes...

But for church I chose to put a bow on her head.

Look at the lace detail at the bottom of the dress. I love this dress and she looked so cute. Thanks Nancy!Here is just a cute close up of Maddy. A friend of mine says she looks like me in this picture. :)

Happy Chinese New Year

We had the best Enrichment night ever. There is a lady in our ward that is Chinese. She atteneded the Chinese branch here for quite a while and now goes to our ward. Any way tomorrow is the beginning of the Chinese New year. So for Enrichment we had a Chinese New Year type night. (The Chinese Branch' dress rehersale) We ate othentic Chinese food, chicken and pork dumplings, egg rolls, and the best chicken salad I have ever tasted, candies and desserts. They were sooooooooooo good. Angela, (the Chinese sister) put together dances and speakers as well. There was a Dragon dance with drumbs, a fan dance performed by the mom age Chinese branch sisters and a dance called the Wave dance performed by the Primary age girls of the Chinese branch. Then another lady sang a Chinese song, another lady talked about Chinese tradtions and then another lady showed us how to write Chinese and what it all means. But quess what, I forgot my camera of course. Owell I guess. I cant do anything about it now right? Any way it was a great evening. By the way it is the year of the Ox.
