Eric, Maddox and I just got back from Denver. Eric had a conference for financial planning so Maddox and I tagged along. We drove this time instead of flying, like we did in May. It was a long trip but nice to have our own car out there. We went to the pumpkin patch with Aunt Brooke and Uncle Tyler, visited the zoo and spent time with family.....'Aunt' Kelly, 'Aunt' Kathy and cousin Emily. We had a great time. Maddox slept well and even friended Tyler and Brooke's cat Oliver by the time we left. Maddox learned how to use a straw while we were out there and she also started getting her two front teeth. They aren't quite all the way down yet, but she is able to grind them against her 2 bottom teeth. I'm sure it won't be long. She mastered Tyler and Brooke's basement steps which quickly transferred over to our steps. Eric and I are trying to teach her how to go down on her tummy with her feet first. She is very good at climbing up but needs more work on getting down safely. She slept SOME in the car seat during the ride out and back....the picture above was on the last leg of the trip...Williamsberg, IA to Bettendorf. She fell asleep with her purple bear over her head as if to say...'I've had enough of this car...can we PLEASE go home'. We thought it was cute. All in all we had a nice trip and it was good to be away. Thanks for the hospitality Aunt Brooke and Uncle Tyler. We look forward to meeting your new little guy in 2011.
