Here is a slideshow I made for David, it's of Madelyn...mostly 5 months :)  I think we made David's day by sending it ;)

6 months!

I can't believe it, but Madelyn is offically 6 months old today!  Seriously, where is the time going??  We celebrated by introducing a sippy cup and Gerber puffs (she mostly just gnawed on the sippy cup and scooted the puffs around on her highchair tray :)  Once the sun finally decided to show its face, we went for a walk and she sported her new hat and shades, super adorable!  Then it was time to play with her new animals from grandma and grandpa Gardner!  All-in-all, it was a fantastic 1/2 birthday.

Happy 1/2 birthday to our precious Madelyn, mommy and daddy

love you more than you could ever know!

Valentine's Day Photo Shoot!

Madelyn and I had a photo shoot last weekend with the same photographer that took her newborn photos.  She was offering Valentine's Day mini-sessions and I thought it'd be a perfect way to get some updated pictures of Madelyn and mommy to send to David on the ship!  Here are a few from her "sneak peek" - there will be lots more to come very soon!!
