Elastic Eight

by Heather on July 11, 2008

in the famous Madeline

Who knew she’d turn into a little contortionist?
Hey, look how bendy I am!

I took that above picture while I screamed, “DON’T DO IT MADDIE!!! DON’T DO IT!!!!

And then she did it. Foot in mouth. *shudder*
I can put my foot in my mouth! Mom, are you gagging?

She’s eight months old today, and she’s already ignoring her mother.

Hey, don’t knock the finding of feet. I used to get a good 20 minutes of peace when Erin found her feet. It was fantastic!

So cute, really there should be some kind of fine or penalty tax for her being so damn cute! Her eyes are going to draw them all in as she grows!

We were watching video of Abbie drinking from a cup for the first time and got all teary. The starting to ignore you thing…. well it could be genetic… does that husband of yours listen well?

This is a right of passage! Finding and tasting your toes? Built in entertainment!

Dude – that kind of cuteness should be illegal. Thomas is still so bendy that he can rub his heel on his teeth to make a squeaky noise. *eeeek eeeek eeek eeeek*

Mmmmm. Feet.

Now get Mike to try it: “Hey baby, check out my sexy move. I can lick my arches. Come here and kiss me.”

Ohhhh no. While I find it adorable – I can only imagine the gagging that was going on in the Spohr household. You do realize you can NEVER tell Maddie you hate feet because I have a feeling…….well, I won’t say anymore. ;)

Oh my lord, that girl’s eyes are extraordinary….the foot thing, well, maybe it’ll make her popular in high school or something. Good luck ever erasing that image from the darkest corners of your pedophobic mind.

Happy 8 month birthday, Maddie!

As long as she isn’t walking, you know her feet are always (relatively) clean, so really, no big harm in her sucking on her own toes. Other than the gross-out factor for you, of course.

But then, I regularly nibble on Cate’s toes because it makes her laugh. We’re just weird that way.

That is pretty gorgeous. Maddie looks like she’s trying really hard to cram it all in. Gave me a good laugh. I can’t wait for this stuff with my little boy.

Oh sweet baby toes! How can you hate them? They are still untainted by shoe funk (for the most part) and don’t touch the ground in the usual sense. I could eat my girl’s piggies up. That sounded really gross. And way pervy.
