New Addition




Well, after a very long wait, here is the newest addition to the Wilkinson family. Madison Marie Wilkinson was born July 19, 2008 at 4:55 a.m , after only about 3 hours of labor. She weighed 7 lbs. and 11 oz. and was 20 inches long. She has blue eyes and blonde hair. She is the most beautiful baby I have ever seen (but of course, I'm a little partial!!). She is very easygoing and only cries when she is hungry or has a dirty diaper. Talk about making it easy on her parents!!


Her older brother, Zander is still unsure what to make of his new little sister. He has only been home with us for a few hours since we brought Madison home. Zander has been staying at his Grandma and Grandpa Wilkinson's house until tonight. However, when he has been around his new little sister, he just wants to keep kissing her!! It's pretty cute, but she gets tired of it pretty quickly. I also think that he is becoming jealous already. On Sunday, when we got home from the hospital, it only took about 15 minutes before he started being mischevious. Jason and I both had turned our backs for just a minute. When I realized that he was being awfully quiet, I immediately went to see what he was getting into. He was in the kitchen and he had just dumped the baby laundry detergent we had just bought all over the kitchen floor and was slipping and sliding around in it. Then today, just minutes after Grandma and Grandpa dropped him off, he was in the baby's room spreading Vaseline all over the baby's changing table. Talk about a mess!!
