9 Months already!?


Madison's first hair cut!! She loved all the attention she was getting from everyone there at my salon! She sat all by herself it was so cute!!


They have this at one of the malls and we decided to put Madi on it.... She wasn't too sure about it!! Don't worry her daddy is hiding behing the ball holding her up so she doesn't fall!


This is the Sunday after her hair cut! He hair went so curly and cute! I can only hope it stays curly! She actually left the head band on all day I was impressed!!

Grandpa Reeves came in town and so we got to hang out with him and watch movies and eat Pizza and candy our favorite thing! We miss our Reeves family so much!!! Maybe one day we'll all be able to get together again and party!!! we love you guys!!

We ate at Cheesecake Factory for Brett's birthday and he ate a huge Burger plus more then half of my brother's huge burito!! No one could believe it! After he ate what about 3 of us could have he still had room for desert and he is still skinny!!! If only I had his matabolism!!!

These are the moments that just make me want to cry. She was being a little brat and wouldn't go to sleep and wouldn't stop crying so I handed her over to Brett and I looked over not 5 minutes later and they were both sleeping!! He loves his little girl I don't know what he is going to do when she get big!

8 MONTHS!!!!!

Madi showing Rylee how the bouncy works! She rather stand on this side then be in it now!! Madison loves playing with babies now... Well more like attacking them!!
Like mother like daughter... Need I say more!!??
Kai just celebrated his 1st birthday!!! He loved his cake and Aunt Meg and Uncle Corry were nice enough to let Madi have fun in the cake!! She liked her foot in it if you can't tell!!
So Aunt Desi got stuck with watching Madi one Saturday while Brett and I were working and
g-ma and g-pa were out of town to a funeral. They had fun playing and Madi just loved this walker thing! Desi had fun with the camera!!
How is it fair that she will sit with her and not me!!!!??? Little punk!!

Madi was running 102 plus temperatures this day but you couldn't tell!!! She was really good for Desi and then I got her home and it was a different story!! She is doing a ton better now.


Look at my cute little ghetto baby!!! hahaha


Madi is totally into posing in this picture!!! One finger up the nose and one in the mouth!! Silly girls!!

Believe it or not Madison is 8 months old! I can't believe that she has gotten so big! Some days I just look at her and can't believe my eyes! Some days it seems like she got bigger over night!! She is sleeping through the night which is so nice! She is now getting in her top 2 teeth and you can see the whit of the one and the other is following pretty close behind! So for some awesome news!! Brett just got offered a job with a police department!!! He is going to do his gun qualifying stuff tomorrow and then he will have to do a really long Psych evaluation and then if he passes all of that he for sure has the job! The only bad news is is that he will be on the Reserve and going through field training for the next 17 weeks. It could be shorter. When he gets through the FTO then he will get paid so until then he will be volunteering!!!!! Totally sucks but I am sure it will be worth it in the end. When you are on the reserve you get paid but no benefits which totally sucks.... We will have to figure something out though. This police department is the best. They have the top gun training and everything. They are completely family oriented. The Chief informed Brett that if he misses a family function and he finds out about it he is in deep trouble. He is amazing and you can totally tell how much he cares for the guys on the force. He told us that once you are hired on you are part of a family. Not co-workers but a family. I am so excited and so grateful that Brett has gotten this job. He is so excited about it too. He makes me laugh cause he is so giddy over this job!!! It makes me so happy that he is happy. Everything else here is going well. Life has it's ups and downs I have had to learn to take a lot of things one day at a time and to rely on my faith to help me through the rough times. I hope everyone is doing very well!! Happy Holidays!!!
