Grandpa's Visit

This weekend Madeline was able to meet her Grandpa Rowland for the first time and I think they were pretty impressed with each other! My Dad arrived on Saturday night and left early this morning. While he and Gerry were here they proceeded to spoil all three of us by buying breakfast before church on Sunday, cooking a ton of food for our freezer, buying Madeline a mattress and a wipe warmer. We had a wonderful time and look forward to his next visit.

Madeline had a couple of firsts this weekend. When we went to the pediatrician last Monday one of our questions was how careful to be about taking Maddie out of the house. Our doctor was emphatic in her opinion that it is better to take her out than to keep her at home all the time, we just need to make sure that everyone who wants to touch her washes their hands first and to make sure that if someone is sick they do not breathe directly on her. With that in mind we made some trips this weekend, Saturday morning our church had a women's brunch and fashion show so Maddie and I had our first day out with the ladies :) Sunday we went to breakfast and then church for the first time, I spent the majority of the service in the nursing mothers room but it still felt good to go after being away for so long. We had our first snow of the season yesterday and today it is sunny but still pretty cold so Maddie and I are staying indoors for now.

Here are a few pictures from the weekend:

SHE IS BEAUTIFUL and you are too! I am glad that your dad was rockin the Bronco hat, was he there for the awesome defeat of the cowboys?

I bet it felt so great to get out of the house. I imagine that you were getting pretty stir-crazy. I am going to try to get some stuff your way tomorrow or thursday.
