We enjoyed uncle David and aunt Abby's visit yesterday!


He was sleeping like an angel today!

Madden's First Bath

Here's a cute dip bowl on Overstock.com! He's got his feet tucked under just like Madden does! Ok, I'm buying it, it's just too perfect!

In search of a crab

I'm looking for a crab sculpture to add to our kitchen decor. A wall piece would be nice, but I'd really like a standing sculpture. It'd probably be easier for our beach dwellers (Mom, Jane, Kristie or Frank) to find one ;D And I'd like it to be blue if possible. Here's what I've liked searching the net so far...


I also came across this charm on JCPenney.com and would love a pendant like it to wear! If you come across something affordable I think it'd make a great gift! What's our next holiday... Christmas?!?!?!

Day 8 and feelin great!

I caught him smiling :D

I'm so in love with our little man!

Madden Michael Mills

Baby Madden is here! He was born Saturday, 7-10-10 (a crab!) at 5:15am. He weighed 9 lbs and was 19" long. My water broke around 9:30pm making the whole ordeal lasting only about 8 hours! It felt like forever when I was going through it though! If I can give any advice to expentant mothers I'd say get a birthing coach like Linda and Michelle! You need someone there to tell you to relax and breath throughout your labor! And carry like 2 or 3 towels with you wherever you go cause when your water breaks its A LOT!!! I was not expecting that! I'm so glad I packed pj's for hospital stay too cause those gowns suck! Just be sure they open in front if you're planning on breast feeding. All in all I'm glad it's over but Madden is amazing and definately worth it!

I'm feeling so spoiled right now it feels great! Dad took us shopping and we found a car seat/stroller combo at Walmart. It's a Safety 1st and I'll have to let ya know if I have any complaints. He also got me the table mate which I've been wanting forever and I love it!!! He also treated Sky and I to crab legs! Oh man, i feel heavenly! Thanks Dad!!!!! You are the best!
