So tonight mommy decided that rather than ignoring the blog because I feel guilty to have skipped 5 months of updates...I was going to just bite the bullet and start writing again. The blog really isnt for anyone but you, Daddy and I to remember what a sweet, amazing, smart and funny baby you were. Time goes by soooo quickly, and I want to be sure to remember all the little cute things you did when you were a baby.
So you only like to be referred to as Madison Julia. If I call you anything else, Madi, Dolly, Bad girl..anything..you say "No, I'm Madison Julia". Which is funny because a few months ago when we told you that was your name, you said you were just Madison. You haven't warmed up to Mangrum yet, but every once in a while we get away with calling you that too. You think Julia is your last name becuase you also call me Mama Julia and Daddy is Daddy Julia.
I have to make sure I tell this cute story. So a couple of weeks ago, we were driving down the road with Daddy. Daddy is not the best driver (to put it mildly). So Daddy swerved to hit someone and I called out "Oh My Gosh Bert, You almost HIT THAT GUY!".
Anyway, about 3 days later, we were driving home from having dinner and Glee night at Darrell's house. You were in the back seat and pretty quite as we drove home. Then, out of nowhere you yells "Oh my gosh Mom, he almost hit that guy!". We busted up laughing. I had to immediately call Aunt Jennifer & Emily to tell them what you just said. It is crazy how much you remember.
You LOVE Mary....sooo much. You don't like to take naps anymore, but if I tell you we will go to Mary's house when you wake up...you go right to bed. You love all of your cousins...but she is definitely at the top of the list.
Your nightly routine is pretty cute. You and I go into your room and read books..you always ask for :just one more" but you obviously don't know what just one means cause you FREAK when we are done. Daddy then comes in with your glass of water, and whoever else is at our house that night. We all kneel down for a prayer, and sometimes you want to say it. When you say it, I whisper to you what you say and then you reapet it back in a SUPER soft whisper that we can almost not hear. It is pretty cute though.
Anyway, when prayer is over, I sing "I love you forever" about 3-4 times. Sometimes you sing parts of it back. Well a few months ago, Mommy had to go on bed rest for the new baby...and so I couldn't hold you for very long. So Daddy started to say in for our singing time and he would hold you while I sang. Now Daddy has started singing to you so. So Daddy and I sing and both hold you now, We love you forever, we like you for always, now and forever our baby you'll be. You make us do it over and over. LOVE that time!
You still love to jump on your tramp, and now that it is nice out, you play in your "dollhouse" (playhouse) all day long.
Now lets talk about what you did today...so Daddy and I were in the living room folding clothes. It has been a busy couple of weeks and we were looking forward to a nice relaxing day of yard work and chores around the house. You were running between the living room and your bedroom and juswt playing quietly. All of the sudden I heard you saying "I'm a naughty, bad girld Dada". You were down in your room and said it a few times. I told Daddy he better go see whagt the naughty bad girl was up to. He figured he would as soon as we finished putting away all of the clothes.
We went down to our room and put clothes away. you kept coming in and out taling to us and showing us your toys. Then just as aI laid down on the bed for a quick break, I noticed you were holding an empty bottle of childrens benedryl, You held it up and said "I'm a naughty girl". It took a minute to sink in....you drank the benedryl....ughhh....panic.
A bit of background, you have had a cough and a little rash for a few days. So at night I have been giving you a tsp of benedryl (per the Dr). You LOVE it, and after we give you a taste..you cry cause you want more.
I knew you drank it. I immediately told Daddy we had to head to the hospital. I called poison control and they told me the same thing. You didn't love getting checked out by the Dr. They put a sticker on your finger that took your pulse. You kept taking it off. They put a little froggy band on you that took your blood pressure...you liked that because you are OBSESSED with princess frog and we told you the froggy was giving you a hug.
You went through a few stages from the medicine...VERY ornery, angry, and then super snuggly., That was the best part. Makes me want you to drink benedryl all the time :) not. Anyway, at the end of it all, 3 hours later and about $300....they just watched you and sent us home. Better safe that sorry. We headed over to costco and continued our day with some groceries and then back home for a nap. What a day. SOOOO glad you are safe.
You will notice that there are no pictures in this entry. That is for a coupel of reasons. #1...I just want to make sure I post this...so I have to just get it up today :) #2...Daddy and I can't find our battery charger for our camera. I think I have finally given up and plan to order one when we I finish posting this.
So now that I have broken the 5 month writers block..I am baby baby! I am going to try and remember some more cute memories from the past 5 months and update them.
Love you too much forever and always.
