Go Red!

Our weekend was fairly uneventful. I used to hate to say that, it made me feel so boring and like i wasted days. Now having Mady, uneventful is the best thing in a way.

Friday was probably our most eventful day of the whole weekend. We hit an important milestone...Mady's first smile. It was her first REAL smile too, not just a gassy fake one. I was checking my email with Mady on my lap, and i was making faces at her like usual (she likes to watch me make faces and then try to make them back). She was making noises, and then there it was! A big grin just for mommy. Of course i didn't believe that it happened for real, so i had to try to do it again to see if it was real, and there it was again! So i had to rush for the camera at that point and hope that she would do it again, at least one more time, so i could prove it to everyone that i wasn't just seeing things. And sure enough, she did it a few more times, so i got some nice pics of her first REAL smile :)

Also on Friday, Frank's dad and step mom came over to watch Madylinn for a few hours while we went down to the Mount Carmel football game. It was really really cold out, so she had to stay home. There was a point at the game where i wished i was home with her in the warmth. But it was nice to be out with other adults, having adult conversations, not talking about poop, and still know that Mady wasn't far away and she was very well taken care of.

Saturday was pretty boring. We did our grocery shopping today so we wouldn't have to rush around on Sunday trying to get that AND everything else done. Mady enjoys grocery shopping. She pretty much sleeps the whole time.

Sunday was a regular sunday for us as well. We went to church, ate lunch and then watched football all day. Frank's mom and Marv came over for a bit to see Madylinn. She slept most of the day, which is rare for her, but at least she was happy. I think she might be catching a cold, she has a bit of a stuffy nose. I'm not sure if i should call the doctor or just ride it out a bit and see if it goes away.
