New Look

I've decided to give the blog a much needed facelift! I've been learning more about websites and elements so you will be seeing new looks to the blog in the coming weeks!

Takin a Walk

Last weekend the weather was so nice that we took our first walk in a very long time. The dogs loved it. Although we had to walk in the street since people don't shovel their sidewalks.

Just taking in the sights on the street!

New Milestones!

Madelyn reached new milestones in these past 2 weeks. First word, sitting by herself, siting in a highchair and shopping cart.

First shopping cart trip! The mini carts at Marshalls.

A trip to BJ's with Ava. I don't think Ava likes Madelyn touching her!

Second time sitting in a highchair. We went to brunch for my birthday on Valentine's Day. She made it in there for about 6 minutes. We are learning....

 

A fun trip to Cozumel to celebrate mine and Ana's (2nd) birthdays. We all wore the sombraro that night!

Sittin Pretty

Well Madelyn has finally gotten the hang of sitting up! 

  

She likes to wear shoes now!

Michael bought her a pair of pink boots for winter "to keep her feet warm". 

  

She is a happy, silly baby. 

 

She enjoys sitting up and seeing more of the world and her hair is finally 

growing in in the back because of it! Yippy!
 

Chatter Box

Well Madelyn said her first word(s), (well we think so, amongst all the babble). It happened to be "da da" even though I told her I'd buy her a nice something if she said ma ma first. Oh well.

Here is her babbling away.

She also had her first trip in a shopping cart Sunday! We will attempt the highchair next week. She is getting bigger and stronger by the week. She can sit up by herself for a little while before falling over or sideways so that is a bonus! Here are some videos and pictures from the weekend.

Playing on the piano

Being a ham as always

Playing with dad. Trying to strangle him.

So proud that she poked him in the eyeball

Passing the time

Nothing much new going on in the lives of the Kocmit's. Just staying busy in these winter months. Madelyn has found some new hobbies....

Sleeping on the couch...

Trying to catch the dog...

Taking up piano lessons...

She likes to play chop sticks...

And finally... laughing at nothing. I took a bite of pizza and she cracked up with each bite I took. It's amusing how she laughs at things that aren't funny to us big people!

Keep warm everyone (well everyone in the northern states!). Hopefully some fun updates this February.
