we made it home, safe and sound. maddie slept the first 4 hours and woke up just before we got to ikea (outside chicago). we spent about 2-1/2 hours there and then maddie slept the rest of the drive home (about 2 hours). she even went to bed early! we got maddie the bead "roller coaster" pictured and a stuffed ostrich (ikea has the most random stuffed animals).madelyn was really excited to be back home! it was so cute how excited she was to see each and every one of her toys. she was all over the place today happily playing by herself. you can get an idea about her enthusiasm in this video (she has some trouble standing up and walking because of a stuffed animal on the ground).
today maddie had her 9-month check-up and here are the stats - height-30-3/4 inches (99.83 percentile), weight-20lbs. 10oz. (79.57 percentile). luckily, there were no shots today! maddie also got a clean bill of health which was a relief. the fever and slight crankiness are just from teething - yeah!
one more quick story. madelyn has pulled her hair bows out of her hair for a while now, but on saturday she tried to put them back in. isn't that so cute?! she just kept trying to put it back in where she pulled it out.

Happy to hear you made it there and back safely. I was thinking about you guys when I heard there was some major snow and, thus, travel delays in your neck of the woods. Welcome home!
