10 months, 9 teeth and counting

Maddyn woke up this morning and rang in her 10 month birthday with her 9th tooth! It looks like #10 might be here in a day or two, b/c her gum is bright white. That gives her 6 teeth on top and 3 on bottom. The funny part is that you can now start to see her teeth when she smiles- it's so cute!! It's just different then we are used to!

Mark your calendars for December 13th. That will be Maddyn's Winter One-derland! We'll be ringing in Maddyn's birthday a little early, since it's so close to Christmas! It's so hard to believe she'll be one already!!

We have some fun family things coming up. Next weekend we have a visit to the Pumpkin Patch with friends. The following weekend we have Halloween- and three different parties to go to. I'm excited to show you all Maddyn's costume. She'll be a bumble bee this year. I wanted Rylee to be a flower, but Dave won't let me ;) Then we have our Family photos, a few birthday parties, and then Thanksgiving. Should be fun!

We did decide to go ahead and finish the basement. The project started Friday and as of Saturday night, the framing is about 90% finished. They are doing great. Dave and Jared are going to try to do a ton of the work themselves, but are getting help from our builders. Pretty exciting! It will be nice to have the big rec room for Maddyn to play in :)

I'm almost done with the 9 month photos- I know, I keep saying that. But we had the "family flu" this week and it was hard to get them done with one of us being sick any given day this week. I'll post and send soon!

Here's her 10 month growth photo. I'm also uploading a bunch of random ones from today into Shutterfly. So click the link to the right to see (in about an hour).
I'm also going to attach video clips of her doing her new favorite thing: "Touchdown!" Anytime we say Touchdown she throws her arms up in the Touchdown sign!!! She is obviously her mommy and daddy's little girl, and true to her namesake :) Since I've finally uploaded videos, I'll also throw another of my favorite recent clips: Her playing with Dave (LOVE the laugh).
xoxo,
Heather
