Big Sister!!

Well as most of you know, Madelyn will be a big sister as of next May!! I am currently 13 weeks pregnant and our due date is May 4th. We had a doctors appointment this week and everything went great and the babies heartbeat was 159.

Madelyn had a fun filled weekend. It started Friday with the Davidson Halloween March where the kids march downtown in their costumes and businesses sit outside and hand out candy. Madelyn loved it and did a great job of walking with her bag. However, after walking about a block she sat down in the middle and started pulling all her treats out of her bag. She apparently was spent and ready to check out her goods! She loved it so much she cried when we left and did not want us to take off her costume! We also had a few house showings this weekend, which meant lots of park time since we have to be out of the house! Today, we actually had a showing that requested to come back the same day so she had two park trips. She could barely keep her head up at dinner she was so tired!!

Here are some pictures and videos to enjoy :)

WAIT, What did you say, I won't be the baby anymore!!! 

stopped to smell the flowers 

Halloween March!

Cutest little cat waiting for the march to begin (couldn't get her to look for a picture, to busy watching all the other kids)

Watch out, Madelyn is behind the wheel lol!

  

This girl could go down the slide all day!

Here is a video Derek got of her saying lot of words, topless lol (right after a messy dinner and the shirt had to go)  :)

We have been on the go over the past few weeks. Two weekends ago we spent back to back weekends in VA. We had a wedding one weekend and headed up for a tech game the next. Though two weekends on the go can be tiring it was really nice to spend time with the White side of the family. Madelyn had a great time with her cousin, Aunts, Uncles and Grandparents!

This past weekend we were very excited to have Nana and Papa here for a long weekend. It was such a fun weekend of shopping, baking, delicious meals and of course Madelyn loving time with them. The boys got to enjoy a night out to the race and mom was such a big help getting stuff done to the house. As always it was very hard when they left. We wish we could have these weekends more often!

Madelyn has started the lovely tantrums and beginning of what we think is the fun terrible two stage. Everybody knows how high strung she is so it was no surprise we would be starting this soon, lol! She is definitely getting very upset when she doesn't get her way or something she wants. She has even started biting us to show how angry she is! She continues to repeat EVERYTHING! A funny example is; while mom was here she was trying to get the attention of a worker at Walmart and said "Sir" next thing we know Madelyn is screaming SIR over and over at the man! I guess she was just trying to help, she sure did get his attention, haha!

Some of her latest words are: please, thank-you, help, rocks (all she wants to do it play in them), apple, stay and spoon. She is able to say and identify a dog, cat, cow and duck. She also can say the sounds that go with them except for duck. However, sometimes her moo and meow and gets mixed up:)

Madelyn has battled a bad diaper rash on and off since she was about 6 months. She also has always had very sensitive skin. However, lately it seems to have gotten worse. Getting the rash very often and red marks on her skin all the time. Her pediatrician has finally decided that we need to take her to a pediatric dermatoligst. We are actually relieved as hoping to find a solution to the poor girls constant rash! We go on November 7th.
