Next week, Madelyn has her 9 month appointment at the doctor, which I'm really looking forward to. The end of next week we're heading to the Vineyard for 6 days. Since our trip over Memorial Day was less than perfect because I was so sick, I'm really looking forward to this visit. Hopefully we'll bring Madelyn for her first trip to the beach and time in the sand and ocean! We're even trying to plan for my family to visit for a day or two while we're up there. I am sure it'll be great, and I can't wait :)
In addition to my birthday, we have my brother Brendan's birthday on August 15th and my mom's birthday on August 27th. How can you not love birthdays?! At this age, birthdays = time with friends and family, cocktails, yummy food, and cake... uhh, yes, please :) So having a few family birthday close together always makes for a fun month!
At the end of the month, we have Addy's christening, at which we'll officially become her God-parents. We are very honored to have such a special responsibility and we know celebrating that day with our families will be wonderful.
Lastly, at the end of the month, Madelyn will start attending daycare part time. Eeeek! I remember filling out the forms indicating she would be 9 months old in August, and how crazy that seemed.... poof, now we're just about there. I can't think about it too much because I get emotional but I know it'll be so good for her and for my mom. It'll certainly take a little getting used to, maybe more so for me than Madelyn!
I guess as I look ahead towards the end of summer, we have so much to look forward to, it doesn't have to be bittersweet. I was cleaning up room on my computer this morning and found some old pictures of us, back in the day :) So as we look forward to all that's to come, here's a look at us in summers past!
