Facing Forward

We turned Madeline's carseat last night! She thinks she is so big! As you can tell, she is right at home facing forward!

Easter Sunday

Madeline had a very nice Easter. We went to church, then went to Pa's for Easter lunch. Pa gave her an adorable bunny that sings, and we gave her a big stuffed rabbit. She really liked eating macaroni and cheese for lunch and she even got some sweet tea (at least it was decaf). She played and had a great day. She looked beautiful in the blue dress Nana bought for her.

2 Easters!

Last Easter (4-8-07) Madeline was 3 days old, and she went to meet Grandmother and Pa for the first time. This Easter, she is 352 days old! Time flies! What a year. She has changed so much!

First Easter Basket!

Nana and Grandad brought Madeline her first Easter basket this weekend! She loved it. She got pajamas, 2 Easter shirts, a blue capri outfit, a book and a dancing/singing chick. It was a very good first Easter basket. We had a very nice time while they were here-- Maddie may be the youngest person to ever tour the Woodford Reserve Distillery!! Dad and Grandad sure did have a good time at the tour, though. And after her grandparents had to leave, Madeline broke in her shade tent that we're taking to the beach this summer.

Happy Easter!

We want to wish all of our family and friends a very blessed Easter!

We'll post pictures of Madeline in her first Easter dress this weekend.

On the go!

Madeline spent most of her weekend on the go. We had 6 house showings, so we had to be gone both Saturday and Sunday. (Hopefully we'll get an offer!) On Saturday Maddie got to see Pa and Uncle Rich. Sunday we went to the mall, and then looked at a few car lots searching for something with more room for Mommy and Madeline. When we finally got home, she enjoyed a snack and played. She was so glad to get to finally be home for a while!

No Snow For Me!!

Grandad had a great suggestion-- get a disc sled and pull Maddie around the backyard in the snow! We thought that would be adorable, so we borrowed a sled from Julie and tied a rope on it. We bundled up the baby like an Eskimo, got ourselves bundled too, and grabbed the camera and snowman kit. After all of the trouble, Madeline said, "no snow for me!" She was not thrilled with her heavy coat (who needs mittens when your coat sleeves are too long?) She would ride on the sled, but started to cry once when she fell over on it. She was SO cute with her scrunchy mad face, which we honestly don't get to see too often. But, there is no sledding video because we weren't outside long enough to make one! She had a blast playing with the snowman parts once we got inside. The only snow Madeline wanted to play with was the little bit that blew in the door and was on the carpet. We hope she likes sand better than snow, or it might be a long week at the beach in June!!
