Yesterday Maddie had her first day with Ms. K at her permanent daycare and it went great! She was all smiles and so happy when I picked her up which was awesome to see! I have to admit though that I missed having her with me on my drive into and home from work - the car is so lonely without her! She had a really good day though - slept well, watched her first Baby Einstein video (Baby Van Gogh - I love that it was an art one!) and enjoyed being in the swing. It was the best of a first day that I could have asked for!
Yesterday Maddie also made a move - rolling over from her back to her tummy! I looked in on her at 6am yesterday morning and then went to get ready. About 10 minutes later she started talking and doing little cries. When I go in to her room, I see that she has rolled over onto her tummy and is now stuck there! She didn't roll over at all at Ms. K's house so I thought it might be a one time fluke like last time. But early this morning, our little love bug rolled over three more times! In fact she kept me up from 4am - 5am trying to roll over instead of falling asleep on her back! Here's what happened...she had started talking at 4am today so I went in to look on her and there she was on her belly just chatting away! For the next hour I tried to get her to go back to sleep, but she wanted to keep practicing her rolling skills instead. So around 5am I let her roll over completely and she cried once she was flipped over. She fell back asleep in little 15 minute chunks until 5:45am and then she had an early breakfast at 6am. I put her back down a little after 7am so I could get ready and when she woke up at 7:40am she was on her tummy again! So, I think we officially have a roller on our hands! It's so neat to see her learning these things...a little hard at 4am...but still incredible!
We love you all!

WOW Congrats Maddie!!! I am super proud of you! It's just a matter of time before you figure out you can roll back from your tummy to your back, and then it's a whole new world. You are growing so quickly, and it's been fun hearing it from your mommy and reliving it, you are such a beautiful girl. I am proud to know your mommy and you, and I couldn't have asked for a better "niece"...
Love,

hi, hon. i think maddie is starting to take after me. i ,too, love to roll onto my back and like maddie, i can find myself stuck. the only difference is that when i start to cry nobody pays any attention. i entertain myself looking at the ceiling pattern - what i can see in the dark. maddie is so lucky to have you to gently roll her over.
you certainly enjoy motherhood and watching maddie grow and develop. you are the best!!!
love and kisses, papa bob
wow.. that's awesome! She is so cute! I can just imagine her grunting and groaning in her mission to roll over. Forget about sleep, who needs it?! I'm so glad she and Kay had such a great first day. Sounds like a match to me. I love you guys. I cant believe how much she's growing and changing. Thanks for keeping us in the loop and making us feel near even though we are away. Love you guys!!
