I tried to include a video of Maddie waving with this post, but there seems to be some kind of glitch. She started to imitate our actions on the weekend. At 4 a.m. to be exact. Here's the story: Maddie woke up at 3:15 bright eyed and bushy tailed and ready to start her day. Daddy and I were less than ready but apparently it wasn't up to us to decide. By 4 a.m. we were both yawning. Jason was overtaken by a scale 7.5 yawn which Maddie watched intently. Then she opened her teeny tiny little mouth as big as it would go. And The Yawning Game was born. As of today, she will yawn, stretch her arms up high for "big girl" and wave bye bye when you say "bye" or "night night". But will the kid sign anything? Hell no. At 10 months she definitely knows what she will and will not do, thank you very much.
