12 Weeks Old

I should have a picture, right?  I have been a slacker when it comes to taking pictures.  I will try to get one posted sometime... actually, I have to take it first.  Madison is now 12 weeks old - a big turning point for a baby.  We'll see how things change. Here is the week's update:

Monday - Rough night for all of us - not a single person went to bed before midnight.  I have no idea what Madison's deal was, but it took a long time to work it out.

Tuesday - Cherie came to watch Madison, and I am in my second chapter of biology notes; it is necessary to be ahead of the game.  My parents came in the evening, so Jeremy and I took off for a date night while they spoiled their granddaughter (and dealt with any possible nighttime escapades).  We ate at China Dynasty, treated ourselves with Graeter's ice cream, and browsed Half Price Books.  Madison slept for 8 straight hours; my parents should just live with us :)

Wednesday - My dad went to his pastor-peer conference; Jeremy went to work; my mom loved on Madison; and I ran around (grocery shopping, clothes shopping, baking).  My mom and I also went to the Breastfeeding Support Group.  There were 6 other mothers with their babies!  Madison was the oldest and weighed in at 10 lbs, 8 oz.  Good growth :)  This evening our friend, Anja, brought us a delicious supper - chicken enchiladas.  She and her husband, Mike, had planned on supper with us.  Mike was sick, so we enjoyed Anja's company; last week, we enjoyed Mike's. 

Thursday - Madison and I went to see my friend, Tara, and her dogs this afternoon.  She is due mid-April, but her little girl could arrive any day.  It was good to get out of the house even on this rainy, dreary day.  Now, Jeremy is home and we have no other plans for this evening.  Relax, Eat, and hope for a good night's sleep.  Have a great Friday
