So Tute (Tute=Cute)!!!

My sweet nephew, Tyler, coined the term "tute" for cute (a little speech therapy has cleared that "tute" impediment right up but the expressions will forever remain).

Well, we all agree (and are, of course, a little biased) that Madison Mae is SO TUTE!

ODE TO MADISON:
Happy or sad,
Mad or glad,
Maddie Mae
Will brighten your day!

Even Maddie's sad tantrums are so TUTE! Madison is VERY sensitive and, if her tender feelings get hurt, she will poke out her bottom lip and give it a heart-breaking (and hilarious) quiver before she erupts. She can sound just like a little goat when she bleats out her fake cry signaling she needs to be held, cuddled, noticed, and adored. She is a HUGE cuddle bug and would prefer to be held all day, every day!

Her happy, smiley, giggly moments are even more TUTE. At right around a month old, Maddie started flashing her real smile (she always smiled tons in her sleep and as she passed a good gas bubble). This week (week 5) she has perfected her bright, beaming grin. Oh, how this tute little peanut lights up our hearts while rocking our world. The proof is in the videos:

We'll start with the fake cry/lip quiver/tute little sad Maddie:
