Happy Valentines Day!

Maddie is now 5 weeks old! Some days it seems like she's been with us for much longer and than other days I can't believe she is already so old! She is definitely getting older, she is beginning to focus on things and people more and her faces are cracking us up! We keep waiting for that smile, hopefully to come soon!
Her sleeping is getting better too!! I've been working really hard to get her into the habit of sleeping alone and I think it's paying off. Last night she didn't spend any time with me in bed at nighttime! She was in her crib the whole time! I slept on her floor (not so comfy!) so her random crying wouldn't wake up Nate. Everytime she woke up I had to rock her back to sleep and it took about 2 or 3 times each of putting her down, her waking up, and then putting her down again. But eventually she would stay down and sleep until the next time she needed to eat!! And I did get to sleep in my bed about 4 fours total to to me it was a huge success!! I was pretty tired and sore this morning, but so proud of her!! I guess that comes with the territory of being a mom!!
Yesterday was Valentines Day and although we didn't really celebrate this year, I was so excited to have Maddie wear her cute outfit. Sadly we just went to church and she slept the whole time so not a lot of people saw it, but it was adorable :) I've included some pictures of bathrime, which she likes now that she can be fully in the water! She likes it...until we take her out! The last picture is one of my favorite ones of the Beckey girls!! Four generations...I'm so happy we are all here to take it!!!


My Valentine & me :)





Four generations of Beckey ladies!
