4 months old!

Well our Maddux turned 4 months old yesterday!! Wow time has just flown by! It was also the 1st Anniversary of us living in our house and Jersey's 7th birthday! A little said Jerz is already 7....but she's still her goofy self that we've known and loved for 7 years!!

Here's what Maddux has been up to the past couple weeks...

Hangin' out looking cute :)

Trying bananas for the first time!

Went to GU for a day trip on opening pheasant weekend:

Being silly!

More GU pictures:

Dad put my legs in the lego bucket and put his hat on me!!

Helped Mom & Dad host a dinner party at the house!

Being fed by Great Gramma Gerhardt!

Papa Ron makes me work!!

Maddux ended up getting pink eye on Friday so we hung out at home that day! As you can see, it didn't slow us down!

He was so sleepy in this picture that he kept sleeping even when Gramma tried to burp him!!

And...last but not least...Maddux not only discovered his tongue today but figured out how to mimic Jay and I as we stuck our tongues out at him!!

He thought it was hilarious!!

This went on for about 5 minutes...

We think he's pretty hilarious too!!

That's all for tonight - hope everyone has a great week!!

Happy Birthday - of a different kind!

We would like to wish my dad a Happy 40th Sobriety Birthday today! As mom put it, she and Tom would have far different lives if he had not gotten the treatment he needed and I would likely not be around. Not to mention the numerous people he has helped through his career as an addiction counselor. What a difference one decision can make!!

So a very special Happy Birthday goes out to you today, Dad (and Papa Ron - from Maddux)! We love you and are so proud of you!!

Love,

Jay, Sara & Maddux

Pictures - the last few weeks!

Ok I have been BAD about updating this blog lately!! My apologies!!

Maddux continues to be busy growing up too fast! His latest milestones include giggling, tring to roll over, spinning around in his crib at night so that his head is on the oppoisite end from where he started, eating rice cereal for the first time and grabbing things purposefully. It's just amazing how they develop so fast!!

Here are some pictures from our lives the last few weeks (in no particular order - I can't figure that out on here how to do them in order). Anyway - enjoy!

Grabbing onto the rings on the bouncer:

Our friends, Mike, Kari and Layken came over and Layken tested Jerz out by pulling on her collar and touching her paws. Jerz did great!!

The boys playing together :)

Silly Maddux!

Maddux and our friends Sara & Doug's baby Sam who was born about 9 weeks after Maddux!

Trying to roll to the left!

Jerz got very interested while I was feeding Maddux rice cereal!

The first rice cereal experiment!

The boys taking a snooze - two peas in a pod!

Trying out the exersaucer & liking it!

More goofball smiles!

More grabbing things!

Tummy time on the Boppy!

Layken & Maddux. Hard to believe Layken is 5+ months older than Maddux!

More tummy time on the Boppy!

More grabbing toys!

All this big boy stuff wears Maddux (and mom and dad) out!

Still lovin' the monkeys!

The beagles getting ready to walk in the Shaggy Shuffle!

Maddux in all his glory...well almost all his glory!

Our handsome boy!

Crazy hair!!

Sorry no great stories to post but not much time!

Have a great week everyone!!
