We sure have had a busy week....

After tackling the whole non-pooping incident, we are back on track and are making huge improvements. Maddox has been growing like a weed and you can definitely tell he has been getting longer and chunkier (Dad prefers the word Husky). It has been a week of purging and we have officially retired all of the 0-3 month clothes.

This week we went and visited Nancy our daycare provider at her home, and Maddox got to meet her for the first time. We gave Nancy all of the pointers for calming Maddox (which we rarely have to use), and provided her with a list of all of his likes and dislikes. The whole time we were at her home, Maddox was alert as can be and was taking in all of the sights and sounds. I think Maddox and Nancy will get along just fine. It is hard to believe that Mom will be going back to work in the next 2 weeks.

We have made a few trips to the mall and to Lowe's in order to get the flowers into the ground this spring. Maddox loves being in the car and does extremely well in the stroller and shopping cart. He likes looking at all of the lights and bright colors and is turning in to a good little shopper.

Maddox has been smiling quite a bit this week and he is making some hilarious new sounds. It has been incredible seeing how he follows our movements and turns his head to the sound of our voices. Dad thinks Maddox is going to be a little trouble maker because every time he hoses down the wall he turns and grins from ear to ear.



Maddox likes hanging out on his tummy time mat. He holds his head up very well and almost appears like he is trying to crawl.



The greatest invention ever is the Baby Einstein Activity Gym. Maddox spends a lot of time looking at and hitting the various toys.



After a busy week, Maddox was pooped out and decided it was a good idea to take a nap.
