Here's Maddie and I making Valentine cards. We had alot of fun!
Daddy and Maddie making more Valentine cards.
Here's a picture of Maddie in Target with her Valentine's gift from Daddy & Mommy. As you can see, she was making sure the bike was coming home with her.
After her very quick bath, she raced to get on her bike before bed time.
Madison was being very silly! She crossed her arms, put her legs up and said, " Look at me Mommy!".
Last weekend was such a beautiful day so we spent most of our time outside. Ruth Ann and I cleaned the garage while Maddie played with her doll. Madison and I played soccer, her favorite game, catch and hide and seek. We had such a fun day especially because the weather was so nice.
This expression is a classic! This is Madison's 'Oh man, I've been caught and I don't like the consequences' look. I can't help but to laugh when she's not around.Today was a nice Valentine's Day. Jon surprised me and took the day off so he and Maddie met me after work. We went to eat at the China Buffet and it was so nice to spend quality time with eachother. The only time we see Jon is on Sunday so today was a special treat!!! On Sunday after we dropped Auntie Maxine off at the bus station, Jon and I decided to buy our little sweetheart her gift. Since she hardly sees Daddy, she got her Valentine's gift early. She is the proud owner of a Radio Flyer tricycle. Jon sat her on it to see if she was big enough and he later admitted that once she sat on the bike, it was going home with us. All it took was a " Daddy, peeease" and it was in the back of the cart in no time. To make sure the bike was coming with us, she sat in the back with it and when we approached the cashier, she handed her the tag to scan it. She had the people behind us cracking up! On the way to the car, Maddie said, " Oh Tank You Daddy and Mama" and gave us both a kiss. She is so precious and her actions are PRICELESS!!! We just want to say Thank you to both our families for giving Madison Valentine gifts.
Madison is getting smarter by the minute. She is recognizing more of her numbers and ABCs. She knows her shapes and colors. Her vocabulary is increasing and we can understand her majority of the time. When I read her a book, she tries to repeat the sentence to me while she is pointing to the words but she skips a few words. May be she'll be an early reader like her Mommy. I read my first book at 3. She will start potting training next week so I'm very excited about that. For the last few months, she has been telling us when she's going to the bathroom so hopefully, we can time it a few seconds earlier. Madison is such a SMART kid and Jon and I are very proud of her.
