Daddy is back! And so is the BITER!!!!!

Sorry so long since the last post! Matt actually came home Tuesday!!!! I was so happy to see him! He went with me to pick Maddi up from school and you should have seen the smile on that baby's face! Priceless! I took some pictures of them together that night and I will try to post them this weekend. Glad your home Daddy! We missed you!!!! It should be 3-4 months before he has to go out for that long again so that is a good thing! :)

Update on the biting. So, she got bit Monday by a little girl in the class. My heart was broken. I cried, she cried. It was heart breaking. I go to pick her up Tuesday, two more bite marks. One on the opposite arm as the previous day and one on the knee. I was crushed!!!! My poor baby! Its no wonder the baby does not want to go to school! I feel really bad for the mother of the biter cause I can imagine how ashamed she is that her child is biting others (not just Maddi has been bit, two others as well). So, they split Madisons class into two groups. Madison is no longer in the same group as Ms. Biter and hopefully things will be ok from here on out. However, my sweet baby still has two big circle bruises on her arms. Poor thing! Well, Im gonna go for now. I will try really hard to post pics this afternoon or tomorrow morning.

Daddy......Where are youuuuuu????

Ok. So I officially miss my husband and Madison is sooooo ready for HER Daddy to be home. He has been gone since last Wednesday and there are no hopes of him coming home before Thursday. I knew that this is one part of the job that would stink but there are still no regrets on him taking the job. He is so much happier at this job. I can handle him being gone for a while but I didnt think Madison would realize this soon that Daddy was gone. Everytime she sees a phone she gets this huge smile on her face and says "Dada". And she has been carrying around a picture of him. Oh sweet baby. This weekend was really rough cause that is usually the time that the three of us get together but he was not here. Its hard trying to keep up with everything on your own! Gives me a whole new respect for single moms! On top of that, Madisons allergies are horrible and she is teething. And, are you ready for this? Hold your breath......................SHE GOT BIT AT SCHOOL TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She has the markings of a mouth full of teeth outlined with a bruise above her right elbow. As if I didnt feel guilty enough taking her to a daycare, then this happens? Well, all the bloggers reading this, if you have any tips on how to make things easier for Maddi with Matt being gone or any advice on the childcare/biting issue, please feel the need to comment. And Honey, if you read this, HURRY UP!!!!! WE MISS YOU!!!

Im A Big Kid Now!!!!

Binky or no binky...im the cutest kid in town!
How sweet is that!

Pancakes for breakfast


Seriously Mom. Do I have to go?




Well, today was the first day of "school" for Madison. She did well. Cried when I left but I called and they said she was fine. She cried when I left her with Jessica for the first time too and ended up loving going there so I think once the routine is esatblished, we will be ok! She must have played hard today cause she could barely keep her eyes open and went to bed at 730!

Bad Blogger

I know I know. I am a bad blogger. I want to blog so bad, but I can never find the time!!! Beware, this is another post without pictures and I promise I will work on getting some posted. Thought everyone was due for a little update though!!!! Maddi is doing well. Still walking everywhere, we even get an occasional run. She is such a little toot! She knows exactly how to work her cuteness in her favor to get EXACTLY what she wants. She is so stinkin smart! I mean, I know she is my kid and I and maybe I am bias, but she just seems to be so intelligent to me. The other day, she did something and Matt said, "See Jess, I told you she was a genious!" Oh my darling husband. Friday is her last day with Mrs. Jessica and she starts the new Academy Monday. I have been really stressed out about the whole thing but decided to sign her up. We had open house last night and I am so excited about it now. I think it is exactly what Madison needs. And, a girl that Matt and I went to school with, her little boy is in Maddi's class so I am really excited about that. She can stay there until she starts kindergarten and they have a christian based pre-school curriculum. They even do stuff with the little ones that is part of the curriculum (songs, arts and crafts). Will keep you posted. Kinda sad my baby going to Big Girl School!!!! Matt is loving the new job! So is the wife!!!! I get to see him so much more now. I am getting used to sleeping in the same bed with him again. Taking some getting used to but Im trying! Its hard when you have slept alone for two years!!!! He has only had to stay over night once and has been home every weekend. He ususally doesnt get home til late at night thought. This morning he left at 4am and he just walked in the front door like 5 minutes ago.
Well, i promise i will work on the pictures and keep you posted on the school!!!! Good Night!!!
