...who gave this one permission to grow up so fast? Why can't the baby stage last 5 times longer and the toddler stage be a little shorter? Although I am loving dressing a girl (adorable outfit care of Rob and Mandy...thanks!!!).
At 10 months, she is busy, busy, busy. Working on tooth #5, cruising around furniture, emptying every drawer, taking 3-5 steps on her own, climbing up (and falling down) stairs, and holding her own against her older brothers. She says "uh oh" and knows signs for "night night", "bye bye," and "come here." (In the interest of full disclosure, they are all the same sign...you have to know context to understand.) She is a complete mama's girl, which means she hasn't quite figured out the system yet, because I predict her daddy will be the one who can't say no to her.
We have spent the last 9 weeks dealing off and on with what appears to be severe asthma. After several doctor/ER visits (and an overnight hospital admission), an inhaler, our own nebulizer, an oral steroid, and an ongoing 6-week course of a daily steriod nebulizer treatment, we appear to have it (at least temporarily) under control. Poor thing is one tough cookie, and definitely not afraid to tell us how she *really* feels about the nebulizer.
Stating the obvious, we are in love. We are 3 for 3 now with extremely EASY babies (and looks like we're going to be 3 for 3 with extremely BUSY toddlers). Ethan said, "I love baby Maddie." When I asked why he responded, "She makes everybody smile." She really does. Like tonight, on the way home from t-ball, while practicing her dance moves:

Words are inadequate for her adorableness. Add me to the long list who love this little girl.
Is she seriously that old now? She's so adorable, just like your boys. Yes, we are planning on Kelly Kamp. I will be there in all my fully pregnant glory. I'm looking forward to seeing you guys. I hope Luke and Ethan get to hang out.
Do they make that skirt in grown-up sizes? Cos I want one. Stat.
The outfit is cute, but Maddie makes it even more adorable! Glad you enjoyed it. Loved the video - your kids are cute! Rob said you are visiting UT this summer - Yeah, can't wait to see you!!!
