Story, ferber, and sunday school social

Ok I have to tell this story before I forget. When I was at the pumpkin patch last week, there were 2 elderly ladies working there. One of them was talking about Maddie saying "Oh she is so cute, I love her bow" and then the other lady said "Oh the baby is a she?" I was like well your first clue is the big stinkin bow on her head. I mean I know sometimes its hard to tell the gender of a little baby by what they are wearing, but never in a million years would I think someone would think Maddie was a boy with a big bow on her head-crazy lady!


Well we or should I say I have been putting off implementing the Ferber method. Maddie has been doing good at night, but still likes to be rocked to sleep for naps and bedtime, so we really just need to do it. My goal is to start this Friday night.
This is what Madelyn did when we told her she was going to have to start crying it out:


Every year our Sunday school class has the annual pumpkin carving contest social. We decided to go since it was going to be outside and Maddie loves to be outside. She did great surprisingly after napping poorly today. Here are a few pictures. You won't see any pumpkins or pumpkin carving b/c my camera stopped working after only a few pictures.
