Looooong Time- sorry!

Sorry it has been such a long time, I don’t know where the time has gone! Madison is SIX months old already!! I can not believe it! She is just getting SO big right before our eyes!!!
Many things have happened in the past month….

*Madison is now eating baby food- not just cereal anymore….she has tried green beans, apples and squash! She does not quite know what to do with the green beans, but she sure loves everything else! I am excited to keep trying new food with her. She is a little trooper and looks forward to dinner time!!
*Madison is not only rolling from her back to belly and belly to back, but she is a scooter now too!! She will scoot backwards to get her anywhere she wants to go! She also gets up on all 4 and rocks back and forth. I am betting that she will be crawling in the next 4 to 6 weeks!! We will see by Christmas where she is at!! :) Madison also sits on her own now…..she prefers to be sitting when you put her down versus laying down! We sit her down with a bunch of toys in front of her and she is content! She loves just playing with her toys!!
*Madison was baptized on September 26th. The church service was great! Madison has 2 sets of godparents, Nicki and Nathan (Pat’s sister and brother in law) and Betsy and Abby (my sisters). We are all so blessed to have such wonderful siblings! Thanks to everyone for being such a special part in Madison’s day! We love you!!
*Madison has gone to two different pumpkin patches in the last couple weeks! We went to the apple orchard/pumpkin patch in Eau Claire with Betsy, Abby and our family friend Emily! Then we went to the tree farm/pumpkin patch in Elk Mound/Colfax with some friends and their kids! It was so much fun! Madison was sooo tired after all the kids to watch and people to see! We had a great time and it was a great opportunity for a photo op!!
*We also got to go to Bella (my god daughter’s) 2nd birthday party! Betsy came with us for the day… We watched Bella open ALL of her presents had some great food and cake! I can not believe that Bella is 2 already! Where the heck has the last 2 years gone?!
*Pat and I celebrated our 2 year wedding anniversary on Oct. 18th. 2 years later and we have a beautiful baby girl! Love you Pat!!
*Madison celebrated her 1st Halloween!! She was my little lady bug- and she was sure a cute one!! She loved her pumpkins—she just wanted to touch all of them!!

Well, I have told you A LOT of information!! And I have one more thing to say…..well, here goes nothing….WE SOLD OUR HOUSE!!!! Oh my! What else is there to say? I don’t know…it is SO overwhelming right now! I just don’t know what to say…. Ok, we have to be out of our house by November 30th- we have made another offer and a different house…which we will not know until this Friday. So---that is all I can say. I will update when we know more! But, I hope you are all ready to move some boxes!! Haha.

The rest of our last few weeks is in the pictures below….enjoy!! Happy November!! Counting the days until Christmas yet?!
