Mom's Favorite Baby Things
Baby Food Organizer- now that we have moved onto baby food, I love this organizer! Madi eats 2 small jars of baby food a day, so when we go to Wal-Mart, we have to load up on baby food. This keeps us very organized.
Paci Clip- if it weren't for these things, we would have lot a million paci's by now! Also, if you use the Soothie Paci, cute clips are hard to find, so we had to rig one up. I stuck a pony tail holder in the hole of the Soothie and then used the clip around that.
Inchbugs- We love our Inchbugs! Sharpie markers just wash off, so these keep our name on our bottles much better.
Baby Einstein- We love Baby Einstein at our house! The DVDs and Cd's are wonderful. Madi will watch the DVDs over and over.
Swing- What a blessing this little invention has been! Madi sleeps through the night and usually doesn't wake up until about 6:30 or 7 a.m., but on Saturday's when we still want to sleep in, we can put her in the swing and crash back out on the couch for a little while and she is happy!
Crib Toys- Madi loves her mobile and her crib toys. When she wakes up in the mornings, these items keep her content for a while. We will hear her on the monitor just playing and talking to them.
Floor Toys- These were also a great invention! Madi loves to get down in the floor and stretch and play, so these keep her occupied and she has fun playing with them.
Johnson's Baby Lotion in Lavender- This is seriously the BEST smelling stuff ever! I have no idea if it helps her sleep better for not, but I put it on her everyday so she will smell good.
Plastic Bibs- Now that we have moved onto baby food, these are wonderful! We tend to make a little mess with our food.
Swaddle Blankets and Sleep Sacks- Swaddle blankets were wonderful when Madi was smaller, but we have now moved onto the sleep sacks. The swaddle blankets will help a newborn to sleep better and that is so important those first couple of weeks! The sleep sacks we use now don't really help her to sleep better, but do give her some extra warmth.

Madi's Favorite Things
My Sleep Sack- I love my sleep sack! It keeps me so warm at night.
Sticking Out My Tongue- I am making funny faces all the time! I love to stick my tongue out at people.
Wipe Case- I love to look at my box of wipes while I am on the changing table. I just love this picture of Pooh and Piglet and it keeps me very happy while Mommy changes my diapers.
My Piano- I LOVE to kick! I will lay in front of my piano and kick it for hours. Thanks Martina and Colton and letting me borrow it!
Paci- I love to hold on to my paci and try to put it in my mouth. It usually goes in side ways or the wrong way, but it I love to try it myself!

Bakerela Blog
I have been introduced to a new blog that is amazing. If you like to bake or eat baked items- you need to check this web site out! She is amazing.
My favorite item on her site is her cake balls. Click on the picture below to see how they are done. They look so easy! I think I might have to give them a shot soon!
Maybe I will have another post with my attempts at these cute little treats!

4 Month Doctor's Appointment and Cereal for Dinner
We had out 4 month doctors appointment today and it went great! Madi is in the 70th percentile on height and 50th on weight. I think she is going to bell tall like her daddy! She took her shots like a trooper too. She cried while she was getting them but it didn't last too long.
We also started cereal tonight. I think it was a little traumatic for her. She made some funny faces though! Most it ended up on her face and very little actually made it in her mouth. It will be a fun adventure though!
My Favorite Time of Day
I love getting Madi out of bed in the mornings. She is so happy when she wakes up! She is usually laying in bed playing and talking when I go to get her. As soon as she sees me standing over her crib she just starts smiling. It will make any morning start off great! 
We are trying to tranisition her to her crib right now. We moved the bassinet into her room and she slept two nights in her room. Last night we moved the top of the bassinet into her crib and she slept from 9pm-7am and I had to wake her up at 7! We are so blessed to have such a good sleeper!
4 Months
Madi was 4 months old on Sunday. So much has changed with her just in the last month. She is holding her head up so much better, she is still sleeping great, she loves playing and laughing and smiling. She is so much fun right now and I can't wait to see what she is going to do next.
