She is very obviously an Adkins. She looks like her brothers. We have heard mostly Eli from people around here (although I think that is because they have only seen Eli as a baby). Some have said she favors Nathaniel too. Although we remember her newborn picture was so much like Ronnie's. It's hard to tell who she will favor. But there is no denying she is an Adkins.
She loves all 3 of her big brothers and loves it when they stop to talk to her or sing or even today they began playing peek-a-boo with her. She was all grins.
Last week she went for her 2 month appointment (only about 3 weeks late - but that's how they do it here). She was 12.12 lbs and 24 inches. She is 80% for weight and 90% for length. (although that is compared to a 2 month old). That's pretty typical with how the boys were at her age.
She has begun cereal now. She seemed interested so we gave it a try. She has had it 4 nights now and does really well.
I think she is doing better than the boys did at this age, but Ron says she still makes a mess.
As I said, the boys love her. She is pictured below with Eli's most favorite Teddy! Nathaniel decided she should hold him. Eli allowed it long enough for a picture, but then quickly retrieved his most prized possession.

New tricks:
She loves to play on her "monkey mat". She will sit and bat at the toys and talk to them.
She is rolling a lot now and ends up going all over. She screams for someone to come rescue her and then rolls some more.

Maddie also loves to put her thumb and first finger in her mouth. None of the boys sucked their thumb, but I'm afraid she might be the first. She is constantly putting her fingers in her mouth.
Well I'm sure you're tired of hearing about our little girl. I could go on and on, but the main thing is the last 3 months have been fantastic! It's so much fun to have another girl around!
