20 Weeks! - Cool Dude!

Maddox is now 20 weeks old and just as adorable as ever. He can sit pretty well with help from one of us of course to catch him when he just gets too excited and topples over. He loves to be on his tummy now too and can lift all the way up onto his hands. His back end doesn't move too much yet, but the other day when Corey was putting his diaper on Maddox almost rolled over onto his tummy. He's becoming quite the little monkey. He's also super into Cooper, one of our cats. I'm pretty sure they're best friends now. Maddox giggles every time Cooper walks by and he grabs fists full of hair out. Cooper just keeps purring. I think he'll take any attention he can get.
My mom and I went emergency shopping for Maddox the other day because we are just running out of clothes. I could clothe 8 babies with all of the stuff Maddox has grown out of. We did find him some cute spring and summer outfits though.


I'm not sure if Maddox was as amused as I was during his bath the other day. I just couldn't resist playing with his long hair.

Maddox is having a blast hanging out with Angie & Rowan still. The other day Angie was trying to convince Rowan to come upstairs because she had to bring Maddox up to eat and by the time she was actually able to get both of them up there, Maddox leaned into Angie and fell asleep. It was SO cute. Angie came in and said, "I think Maddox wants to eat" then she looked down and said, "Oh, well, he did, but now I guess he's asleep".

Maddox is loving the new hip and chest hold in his Kangaroo Sling. It's just so snugly.

It's a great place to put him when he's getting a little tired because he doesn 't fuss at all and just snuggles right in for a nap.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY AUNTIE JENNA! On Sunday we headed down to Grandma Jane & Grandpa Chuck's house to celebrate Auntie Jenna's birthday. We even got Maddox all dressed up in a Dude Outfit. Maddox wasn't too sure what to think of Grandpa's facial hair.

He did, however, enjoy Uncle Kyle. It must be his veteran Daddy techniques.

Maddox is still just loving his baseball. He plays catch with Daddy daily.

Oh, this picture just makes me want to kiss him. I'm still loving being a mom and hate leaving him to go to work, but I guess 4 out of 14 days each pay period isn't too bad, eh? I've even been on-call twice this weekend, so I haven't really had to work too much yet. Maddox is growing and changing so much it's just hard to keep up. We're headed to the Minnesota Zoo tomorrow with Auntie Angie & Rowan, so I'm sure we'll have fun pictures for next week.
