4 months old tomorrow!!!

Miss Madilynn will be 4 months old tomorrow!
Mommy will be working, so we got the photos taken today....

 Just recently she is starting to do more and more
with her tongue....sticking it out, "chewing" on it, etc...


She's not really a big fan of being on her tummy,
but she is starting to use her arms to help hold her head up more and more.
She is working hard at rolling over. She has rolled over twice this month by herself...mommy simply found her on her tummy....hasn't seen her do it on her own yet though.
She still enjoys playing on her playmat, and in her jumper. She is a very busy body, and wants to "stand" with you supporting her...her legs are constantly on the go.
If you work at it you can get a smile out of her, but she is generally still a very serious baby (which Father Hummer even commented about during her Baptism).
She typically gets up at least once in the night around 12-1 for a feeding....then again around 4 or 5. She still goes back to sleep pretty easily, which mommy appreciates!
Madilynn is also really beginning to enjoy hearing herself...over the past couple weeks she has become much more vocal. Not that she says words yet, but by all the sounds she makes it is obvious she has a lot to say! Sometimes she gets very animated when she is "talking" to you...and can become quite loud....it is really cute! Not much of a "baby" anymore....

Tugger was not being very cooperative today...
perhaps because Madilynn now tries to "pet" him...
she is always very intrigued by him, and loves to watch him throughout the day.

Madilynn's Baptism

Sunday June 12, 2011 Madilynn was Baptised at Saint Mary's Catholic Church in Chillicothe, Ohio. The Baptism took place immediately following the 11am mass.
Madilynn wore a gown my Grandma Moore made...and she looked beautiful in it.




Brian and Katie were selected as her godparents.









Madilynn did very well during the service,
and afterwards we had everyone back to our house for a party
(made by Grandma Rosie with love)









Needless to say, Madilynn was worn out by the end of the day!
