Exciting news





My little baby is getting ready to walk.... (tear)
Daddy put her on the walker this morning and she was running down the hallway. It was so cute. she is still very wabbly but enjoys wabbling around.
Yesterday we went to visit our friends Peter and Margaret and she climbed all the way up their staircase. She is getting to be so much fun and it's so exciting to watch her do all these new things. She began waving a couple of days ago and although her timing is kind of off- she just waves whenever she feels like, like in the car she waves to herself in the mirror- it is still a wave.
On Friday I left her to take a nap in our bed and half an hour later when I went to check in on her i found her behind the door trying to come out. She had climbed out of bed- she knows she has to turn backwards and drop and was trying to come to us.
And here is how she helps me cook.

long silence...sorry

I guess her seizures were making me write more and now that we have been seizure free for over 5 weeks there aren't many exciting things to write about.
Madison is doing really great -today she was playing with her computer ( not a real one - it plays kid's songs) and stood up all by herself and started waving and flapping her hands- it's the longest she ever stood on her own. Other than that she is happy to be feeding herself and go mama dada all day long.
we took her to the Big apple circus last thursday and she really enjoyed it. she was very interested in the horses,loved the little doggies running around and clapped after the trapeze act.
I am starting to pack for our vacation and really looking forward to it. Club Med sound like the best deal right now because we can leave her in the baby club and go do whatever. I am really determined to try windsurfing even though my husband is trying to convince me it's way too hard. Sand and water sounds so good.....
I have also discovered the joys of baking and enjoy making cakes and cookies...and eating them too.
Madison's getting really grumpy so i have to go

Halloween...




some costumes worked better than others as you can see...
Madison enjoyed her first Halloween party but was too wiped out to go trick or treating with daddy and napped instead.
Thank you aunty Jen for my first ever Halloween card.....it tasted so good!
