She is such a happy, smiley baby (now that I have given up dairy.) She smiles and "talks" to everyone. She will let new people hold her for a while but always wants to go back to mom eventually. She goes to sleep in her crib around 7:30 every night, give or take a half hour. She still wakes up 2 or 3 times to eat. On a REALLY good night she wakes up once. Around 5am I let her come in bed with me for a few hours. I love waking up to her happy smiley face. On the fourth of July we were trying to sleep in, but she started making noises like she was trying to get Ken's attention. When he looked at her, she gave him a big smile.
Her daddy loves her and says all the time he can't believe how cute she is. He makes her laugh out loud a lot. Almost all the time she has her thumb or fingers in her mouth. She is really good at sucking her thumb. It is always the left one. She tries to get the right one in there but hasn't quite figured it out yet. She hasn't rolled over yet. When I put her on her stomach she gets up on her knees, but won't roll. She does roll very easily from her back to her side, and usually sleeps like that.
She loves Ava and Grace and they always make her smile and laugh. Ava comes up to her every morning when I get there and wants me to pick her up to see Madeleine. She waves at her and says "Hi Baby!" Then she tickles her feet and makes her laugh. When I'm holding her on the chair Ava comes up and says "Baby! Hug!" and gives her a hug. She loves to watch them be silly. Grace can ALWAYS make her laugh. She laughs when she just looks at Grace. Grace thinks it's hilarious to just come up to her and say random words (like Banana, or Knock Knock) and watch her laugh. She'll be playing with them before I know it!
We are so blessed to have such a beautiful, happy daughter! And I love those dimples!

Oh that first picture with her smiling and that thumb in her mouth is a winner! How precious!!! I'm so happy for you guys!
I'm looking forward to that first smile from our little guy...maybe it'll be a birthday present to me!!?
I think the first picture is especially cute... I mean, just look at that face! That's the face of a little one so deeply in love with her Mommy and Daddy! (and doesn't it just melt your heart when they look at you that way and you KNOW that they think you are the greatest, most wonderful person on the planet? What an honor...)
She is gorgeous. Sucking the thumb is a good thing, in my opinion. Buddy sucks his thumb and it is great to have the comfort "at hand."
Oh my goodness, that was such a bad joke that I must leave in shame now.
What wonderful pictures - she's gorgeous!
Thes photographs are heart-melting! She is gorgeous, Beth.
She is so beautiful - and her skin is gorgeous.
I love that little shy unassuming smile - she's an absolute doll.
I want that baby! Her dimples are precious! She is such an angel! You are so blessed!
