What's New!

Yep, having another person to write about has set our blog back WAAAAY farther than we wanted it to! Instead of trying to go back and fill in all of the blanks right away we've decided to start where we are right now and then back fill as we have time...

So, read about what we're up to now and then check below for links to past months that we've updated :-)

Tongue Out!

For the past couple of weeks Madeline's tongue has been sticking out of her mouth constantly! We caught her sticking it out right after her bath while dad had her bundled up... Dad thought it was funny so he joined in :-)

9 Month Pictures

Today we went and got Madeline's 9 month pictures taken.
She got all dressed up in the yellow dress Aunt Lisa gave her for Easter.
First we put on the fancy pants... then we put on the dress, her sweater and finished off the look with a pretty yellow bow in her hair :-) Then it was off to Kiddie Kandids for the big photo shoot!
She did sooooo good - the pictures turned out really beautiful. She's definitely a cutie! These are just a few of the shots they got.
Check out all of the pictures using the following link:

We hope you enjoy them as much as we do!

Play Date with Baby Elise!

Today our friends Negar and baby Elise came to our house to play :-)
We had a lot of fun!
It's hard to believe that just a few short months ago Madeline used to be that small!

Leaving Colorado :-(

It's our last day in Colorado and we really don't want to leave :-(

It was so much fun spending time with Grandma Judy, Dave, Uncle Nick, Kate, Uncle Keith, Aunt Alyssa, Aunt Melanie, Uncle Marv, Aunt Kim, Cousin Taylor & Cousin Greta!

Everyone is heading to the airport, but we grabbed Uncle Keith for one last picture :-)
We're definitely going to have to do this every year!

Easter in Breckenridge

The Easter Bunny found us all the way in Colorado :-) Madeline got a new dress! And Grandma Judy got her a pop-up bunny book...We had so much fun coloring easter eggs!
Kate and Aunt Melanie showed Madeline how it's done.
Then Madeline colored her own egg! After coloring easter eggs, Madeline played in her jumper with cousin Greta, and made her cousin Taylor laugh :-) She loved being able to spend time with Uncle Nick and Kate. After all the Eater commotion she relaxed in the tub with Aunt Alyssa & Aunt Melanie - so many bubbles! What a great vacation!

Snow Bunny

The sun is shining in Breckenridge, but that doesn't mean there isn't any snow! In fact, it's already snowed a couple of times since we got here on Wednesday!

Colorado Here We Come!

The family decided to take a trip to Colorado for Easter! Uncle Nick & Uncle Keith live here, so we decided it would be a great time to visit. We stayed at a house in Breckenridge and had a great time checking out the town. The weather was beautiful! Perfect for getting some great views of the mountains :-)

Madeline & Grandma Judy enjoyed taking in some sun!
In fact is was so bright , Madeline had to wear shades :-)

She's Got Crazy Building Skills!

Today Madeline helped Dad put together a new pantry for the kitchen. With all of the new food/eating supplies being added to the kitchen for Madeline, we needed some extra space!
At first she was a little confused.
Then Dad showed her how the screwdriver worked. She was a pro in no time!
