1st Birthday Bash

For our family and friends who couldn't make it, here are a couple of pictures from Madelyn's 1st birthday bash a few weeks ago. A swell time was had by all especially the star of the day...

Madelyn!









Sippy cup blues

We've got 'em.

Madelyn is not interested in the sippy cup. We've tried several different brands and styles and she still refuses them all. She'll put the spout of a few of them in her mouth and take very small sips but other than that, there isn't much happening in our house in terms of sippy cup usage.

We (Madelyn) started in the toddler room full-time this week so she's had a lot of change. She's exhausted and teething on top of it. I'm not completely surprised that she's regressing to the bottle but just hope that next week brings our sweet, little Madelyn back.

And the Moment We've All Been Waiting For...

Walking began a little befrore Christmas but -- with the help/influence on aunts, uncles, and grandparents -- really took off Christmas eve. Now that she's reached the one and walking milestone, she can transition at school from the infant to the toddler room. Look out, world! Here she comes!

Rainbow Brite

The wagon is one of Madelyn's favorite new things. She keeps her most prized possessions (Dusty-cat, Sophie the giraffe, her cell phone, Felix) in it and pushes it back and forth. The only down side is that she can't figure out how to take it up the steps with her. But, with her determination, I'm sure it's only a matter of time.

Thanks, Grandpa and Nany Judy!

Merry Christmas
