A Bug's World

Lots of Fall Fun!

November 1st, 2011

After sleeping on the “big girl bed” in Florida turned out such a success, we decided to start our search for a “big girl bed” for Madeline. We also needed to prepare for our new arrival and wanted to re-use the crib for him. It seemed like a good time to transition Madeline so there would not be so much change at once.

Trying to find a twin-sized bed that we both liked turned into a difficult prospect. Madeline, naturally, loved the Cinderella carriage shaped one that was silver and glittery. We decided to do a smaller step into a “bigger girl bed” to give us time to find a twin we liked.

So, Madeline’s room got a small make-over. More work still needs to be done, but she messes with everything and so we gradually have to remove new dangers that she creates.

Disney World and Lots of Other Excitement!

October 1st, 2011

Earlier this month it was confirmed that Madeline was going to be a big sister to a baby boy! When we first told her, she kept saying that she is getting a “baby brother sister.” No doubt this came from telling her that she was getting a baby brother or sister.

We also talked Jennifer’s dad into taking a magical trip to Disney World with us. We rented a house with lani and private pool, borrowed a scooter for dad from Andre’s parents and planned to join them at Disney as well. Big family trip turned out to be very fun for all and Madeline got to spend lots of quality time with her grandparents.

Madeline really enjoyed meeting her favorite Disney characters. She also got to ride the teacups and Dumbo!
