The weather outside is frightful...

..and Maddie turned 2 months old today! We all survived, yeah! It was so cold outside today and now it has started to snow which is quite exciting around here because this part of Virginia very rarely sees snow. Daniel and I decided to brave the cold and take Maddie to Target, I didnt really want to take her out since it was so cold but it was nice getting out of the house for once. I have been feeling a little stir crazy. Anyway, our little rascal is getting so big! She is really developing a little personality, laughing and smiling at her silly parents. She really loves it in particular when we sing to her. She has some favorite songs, such as "The Wrong Band" by Tori Amos, Owl City's "Fireflies" and the Pixies "Gigantic". I sing these and she kicks her feet and coos. Its so cute. She is also getting really good at holding her head up. Monday Maddie has an appointment to see the pediatrician. I have been totally dreading it. SHe is getting her first set of shots. Oh I just know its going to break my heart to see her get them. I asked Daniel to take some time off of work to go with me. I hate it when Cooper gets his shots, so I just know I am going to be a nervous wreck when Maddie gets hers. I hate to sound like a paranoid freak but I just dont trust the safety of all the preservatives that the food, drug and cosmetic industries are using. I just dont think they should be putting Mercury in shots given to children but thats just my opinion. Anyway, thats a rant that I wont start this evening. We will also find out how much she weighs. She is becoming quite the butterball, I am a bit worried that she has gained a larger amount than normal but we will see. So here are some pics of Maddie in her car seat with her snow suit on getting ready to brave the cold and go to Target.
