A blog that will talk about the epic rise of Madeleine Garvin from a youth to the most powerful person on the planet along with the struggles of her parents, Sam and Will, to deal with raising this gifted prodigy.
Maddie was four months old yesterday. I don't know where the time has gone. She had her four month appointment this morning. She's huge! She now weighs 16 lbs even. This puts her in the 93rd percentile. She's 26 inches long (96th percentile) and her head circumference is now 16 1/4 inches (55th percentile). The pediatrician thought she looked great and said that she's doing everything that she should be doing. We're happy that she's doing so well. Here are some photos from the past month. The first two are from when we were at the beach at the beginning of September. The last two are more recent. Maddie loves her Bumbo chair because it allows her to sit up and look around at everything, including us. Although the pictures don't show it, Maddie loves to smile. Sometimes, though, as soon as I pick up the camera, she becomes fascinated with it and focuses on the camera instead of smiling. That's okay, though. I still love taking her picture.
Last week we went to Duck, North Carolina (in the Outer Banks) for a family vacation. Will's parents and his sister, Erin, and her family were able to join us. Even though we all had to cut our vacation one day short due to the impending landfall of Tropical Storm Hanna, a great time was had by all.
