3 Weeks Old...Already!







Madison turned three weeks old today, oh how the time flies. Madison had her fingernails trimmed for the first time today...while she slept. Mommy was really nervous but everything went smoothly. It was nearly 70 degrees here today so Maddi got to wear her first sundress. She also spent about two minutes in her crib, which was also a first.

Madison's Room







Madison has a beach themed nursery. Daddy and Mommy worked lots of hours to get it painted just right. Grandpa Fisher had to bring a special drill bit with him from Oregon to hang the curtains. He had to drill through hurricane strapping, not something Mommy had originally thought about. While Grandpa was busy hanging the curtain rods Grandma was ironing all on the curtains. Maddi loves her room. She loves the colors and will look around the room endlessly, kicking and cooing.

Nana and Papa Small





Nana and Papa Small visit Madison every chance they get. They live 45 minutes away and make the drive quite often. Every time they see Maddi they notice how much she has changed, and they do change so much. We love our visits with Nana and Papa and hope to visit them at their house soon.

Grandpa and Grandma Fisher






Grandpa and Grandma Fisher came to South Carolina for the birth of Madison. Their trip was scheduled to be three weeks long and with any luck Madison was to be born during those three weeks. And she was. Madison's due date was February 4, Super Bowl Sunday! And for anyone keeping tabs this was Peyton Manning's first Super Bowl appearance. My water broke at 7:30 Monday morning and by Tuesday at 4pm we had our beautiful baby girl with us. I guess what I am trying to say is that Grandpa and Grandma Fisher were able to spend nearly two weeks with Maddi. Grandma and Grandpa Fisher were here for her first meal out, it was breakfast at Cracker Barrel. We had one more meal out, a dinner date on Valentine's Day and true to form Madison was a little lady in the restaurants. Cassius also loved Grandma and Grandpa Fisher's visit. He was so excited to see them when they arrived, he nearly wagged that big bushy tail right off. Cassius went on walks almost daily with Grandma and Grandpa, he loved it!

Saturday February 24th




What a funny baby Maddi is! Nana and Papa Small came today bearing gifts of diapers and "impossible to resist" outfits. So Maddi entertained.
