Time is ticking!

We are down to mere weeks until our handsome man is back with his girls! Madelyn will be meeting her Daddy for the first time and I will finally be getting my best friend back after a long six months. I feel like the time has just flown by and is coming at us full speed... Then I remember all of the remarkable things that have happened in the last 180 days and it makes me realize how long it has really been since my family has been whole.
When joe left I was just short of being seven months pregnant and was barely showing. Luckily little miss Maddy was moving a ton and Daddy got to feel her a little. :) Sadly though, Joe did miss her birth... We have so much time to make up for. Everything else seems so minuscule compared to the birth of such a little angel but I swear there was much more that had happened in the last six months.


The pups sure are getting used to the new addition!


Grandma came and spent a whole month with us! Shortly following that we got to spend time with Grandpa and Diana, and now we are spending time with Na-Na (great-grandma Sandy). So many beautiful family members have come to shower this little girl with love and I could not feel more blessed as a momma to have such a great support system behind me.


Na-Na loves hanging with Madelyn :)

Next week out little princess will be 3 months old! I have no idea where the time has gone. I feel like I brought her home from the hospital just yesterday... But alas she must grow up at some point. My "little" girl is becoming a big girl quite fast. At just about eight and a half pounds Madelyn is finally beginning to outgrow some of her newborn clothes. (Some of Momma's favorite sleepers were the first victims...) And to top it off, it won't be too long before we are out of newborn diapers as well. Bring on the cloth diapers!! This will be an adventure but I am determined to try.


Nothing is better than quality time with my girl!

Bedtime has rolled around for the Marshall girls. Keep a lookout for some precious photos of Madelyn and Daddy in the coming weeks!
With all our love,
~The Marshall family
