Thanks Gamps!!!!!

So I was cleaning the bathroom downstairs and I hear "You're my friend" and Maddox laughing, then I hear Patty Cake... and Maddox laughs and coos. Curious as to what he was doing I walked into his room and he was playing with the puppy that his Gamps picked up for him. He presses the little ear and makes it talk and sing. He was having a blast with it. I snapped a picture and he got annoyed with me so I left and back to playing with his puppy he went.

Maddox's 1st day at the sitter

Well I did it- I left him alone with someone else for about 2 hours. I hated every moment of it too. I didn't cry but I very well could have, actually I still may. The sitter said that he started to whine and then got really fussy when he realized I wasn't around. Nothing would calm him down, so she gave him Mikey (tiger blankey) and he curled up with it and cried himself to sleep. That is not what I wanted to here at all and is making this so much harder on me. So please pray for me b/c when I heard that I wanted to call the whole thing off. Anyway here is a picture of him before I dropped him off.

My beautiful baby sleeping

He loves to snuggle with my pillow. It melts my heart everytime I see him curled up like this!

Beep Beep driving away!

Thanks Uncle Pedge I love my new toy!!!!!

Maddox in his jumper. He loves all the lights and sounds!

The laughing Madman

He knows how to melt me already!

Maddox thinking...

To poop or not to poop- that is the question.

Madman and his daddy!

Me and my boy!

Maddox wondering when the pictures are going to stop for the day.

Our Family on Easter

From the Easter Bunny

WOW look at all this stuff!

Can you even spot me after we added all the stuff from Grandma Grace?

Just a little cranky...

He wasn't feeling very good, but still- look at that face!

Maddox helping me with his scrapbook.

The Madman Dance

I took out the baby gym that Grace got Maddox and he went nuts! He was just dancing and cooing and laughing away. Marc and I just watched him. He was having a blast! You can see his little drool gotee from his tooth that's coming in and making him miserable. When he is cranky for the most part of the day times like this are welcomed. He's growing up way too fast!

My song to Maddox

I was never alive
Til the day I was blessed with you
When I hold you late at night
I know what I was put here to do
I turn off the world
And listen to you sigh
And I will sing my angel's lullaby

Know I'm forever near
The one you can always call
Right now all you know to fear
Are the shadows on your wall
And I'm here close enough
To kiss the tears you cry
And I will sing my angel's lullaby

So tell me how to stop the years from racing
Is there a secret someone knows
I'll never catch all the memories I'm chasing
I'll never be ready to let go

And when the world seems cold
You feel that all of your strength is gone
There may be one tiny voice
Your reason to carry on
And when I'm not close enough
To kiss the tears you cry
You will sing your angel's lullaby

Let this be our angel's lullaby

Madman's Dedication

The day was perfect and Maddox was wonderful. Thankyou to everyone that was involved in making this day so special!

Salute to my Popou

On a side note

For those of you who take it upon yourselves to view this blog and gossip amongst each other and make inappropriate comments, let me remind you that you don't have to look at this. I know who you are and what was said. It is comforting to know that you set a good "christian example" for all of us to follow and thank you for pointing out our flaws.

Abuelito

I decided to put up a side by side of my daddy with the Madman. I still say he looks like Marc.
