Mads is 2 months old already!

It is hard to believe that our little ladybug is already 2 months old! it seems like only yesterday we were bringing her home for the first time, time is flying by too quickly already.

She is smiling and cooing now and is almost able to roll over by herself..she gets about halfway and then can't go any further, but she tries very hard.  She had her first "conversation" with her daddy on Sunday which was very special and heartwarming for all 3 of us. He would talk to her and she would coo back or he would make a face and she would try to copy him, she would even laugh when he did! It was a very special moment for our little family.

She loves to sleep on her tummy! This was so hard for me to do at first, but after a many daytime naps on the tummy and a few comforting words from my other mommy friends I let her go a night on her tums...she went out like a light! she has to rub her face on the bed a few times before she passes out, but according to Patrick he did the same thing as a child.  I just think she looks like Stevie Wonder and want to put sunglasses on her for the full effect!

We also went on our 1st annual Carpenter family Fall tradition this past Monday to pick our pumpkins for our Halloween Jack-o-lanterns.  Maddie was not a very happy camper, but she did enjoy walking around Patterson Farm on a beautiful Fall day.

Next step Thanksgiving!
