Miscellaneous Stuff

Sorry I haven't posted in awhile. We've been busy around here. Plus, Jeff has been working on his thesis, so I don't have the computer at night. Anyway, I was loading pics on the computer, and I found some that I never posted. So, there are a lot of random shots in this post.

Here she is after she ate some berry applesauce. This was right when she was really learning to feed herself with a spoon. So, just imagine the mess!

This is her "international signal" of "ALL DONE!" She usually throws her hands up and says ALL DONE!!

We took her to the park sometime too. This was before she was walking. She had a good time, but she couldn't walk places. So, she spent a lot of time doing her bear crawl!

She did like to stand and bang on the slide though. However, she wanted nothing to do with going down it!

And, we ordered her a wagon from some credit card points. We opened the door yesterday morning to discover two HUGE boxes. I had also ordered a play kitchen for Christmas using the points. They had told me that it would be 10 to 12 weeks before they would be delivered. Yeah, it wasn't even a week!! So, Daddy, Miss Madison, and JJ put together the wagon yesterday morning. It has a canopy, but Madison didn't want anything to do with that. Anyway, we spent the day yesterday hauling her around the house (in case you haven't seen the news, we are getting pounded with rain).

So, here they are putting it together.


And here are JJ and Miss Madison taking a ride!

Here is Daddy pulling Madison through the house.

Here is Mr. JJ in what he thinks is his wagon!

Yesterday, Miss Madison and I baked some muffins. She had been giving me this muffin box for awhile now, so I told her she could help me. She had a lot of fun, and we will be cooking together more often.

Here we are pouring in all the ingredients!

And here we are stirring it all together!

So, those are all my random pics!

In other news, Miss Madison is walking about 75-80% of the time. She hasn't mastered the whole getting up on her own. She still wants to pull up on things and then takes off. She's getting better and better each day at the walking. She's even tried to run a few times. She usually gets to going too fast though and falls. We are going to a playgroup tomorrow. Another mother in our neighborhood, who has a 2.5 year old, is wanting to start a playgroup. So, we are both excited about it. Also, we've been in our house now for 11 months!! Wow!! And, we turned in a list of warranty items. There were 20 of them!!! So, I'm going to be a busy, busy person. I'm hoping that it's not going to be as bad as I think it is, but I'm not holding out a lot of hope! Anyway, I probably won't be on here a lot. I'll try to post something at least every few weeks. I hope everyone is having a wonderful Monday!
