Ears!!

Do you notice anything different about Maddison's EARS?

Now that she has her ears pierced she can go without a bow and look like a girl. (Not that she would be seen without a bow) She did so good. Yes she cried a little but nothing like when she got those nasty shots. She looks so cute!!!

Great Weekend

What a fun weekend! Jason, Maddison and I made the trip to Abilene to attend ACU homecming. We both got to see lots of college friends, and enjoyed every minute of their company. It was really fun to get to see all of the "blog babies" in person. So many people are popping them out!! It was so much fun to let people hold Maddison and hear from poeple seeing her for the first time who they thought she lookes like. Warning, there are lots of pictures and somehow they got out of order. Congradulations Leigh Ann you made the blog!!

3 Month Pictures

As you can see we took a trip to Sears for Maddison's 3 month pictures. She did so well. Smiled a whole lot and we got some great shots. ENJOY!!!

Iowa State Game!

Maddison and I made a weekend trip to Lubbock to attend the Texas Tech game against Iowa State. We had a great time getting to meet several new people. Fran and Jim opened their house, which was very nice. Maddison did not go to the game but told me all about staying with her cousin Kayle. Thanks Kayla, and we will see you again this weekend. It is always fun to be with family who love to hold and love on Maddison. The most exciting event that happened was that Maddi finally got to meet cousin Taylor, and Taylors "friend" Erin. Taylor did great in the game. Eventhough he got the color of the jersery mixed up one time, we are so proud of T. Maddia and I got to go to Erins parents (Greg and Toni) house for lunch on Sunday and then were suprised with a visit to Toni's specialty shop there in Levelland. Toni and Erin gave Maddison two very cute outfits. Thank you sooo much, they will be perfect for the winter. Here are some pictures from the weekend. ENJOY!! T Paw and Maddi at Frans house.

Back To Work

Well things have been a little crazy around the Gipson house. My wonderful mom came up to stay the week with us so she could help out with Maddison while I returned to work. I had to go back and give my two weeks notice so that my insurance would not drop me. I am so glad that work is behind me now and I am able to spend all my time watching my little one grow. I am really glad that I had to go back because it really made me realize how much I would miss Maddi and so glad we do not have to do the day care thing. It is a great blessing to be able to be a stay-home mom. Maddison is growing so much. She is will be three months on the 8th and is now thirteen pounds and 25 inches long. She is a great baby, I would not have it any other way. While my mom was here, since she has been having trouble with her back, we went to the YMCA pool so that she could do her stretches and relax her muscles. We took Maddi with us and she loved the water. The pool was just the right tempurature, and we had a great time. Here are some pictures from the last several weeks.

These first two pictures have a funny story. I drove up from work on Thursday to see Mom and Maddison sitting on the front porch enjoying the weather. Maddi was all decked out. I asked my mom if she had been somewhere or just felt like playing dressup and she said "I did not have anything to do with what she has on. When I got out of the shower this morning this is what she looked like." Jaosn had dressed her and this is his idea of what his little girl "likes" to wear. Priceless!!!

All dressed up with nowhere to go!

All decked out and ready to hit the pool!

We got a fun new pod and Maddi loves to sit in it!
