A little behind

Here are just a few pictures of my sweet baby. My sister took off work to take DD to the doctor and to also spend the day with Maddie and I because it was Maddie's 1st birthday! Of course Allison had her camera in tow and snapped a few pictures of Miss Maddie! I think they turned out really cute! I cannot believe my baby girl is "1"!! She is growing and changing so much and I just couldn't imagine my life without her! We love her soo much!! Also, I want to think my sweet sister for taking such great pictures! We love you!

My sweet baby girl

Just a few pictures that my sister took of Maddie today. She is such a good baby and I can only hope that continues! I can't believe that she is about to be a year old!! Wow, where does the time go? Thanks again sis!! Love You!!

Allison's birthday lunch

We all went to Firebirds for my sisters 31st birthday. We really had a good time and the food was great!! Maddie was a little angel the whole time. Dylan was a good boy too but he just couldn't seem to sit still for very long!! Oh well he is just a little boy with ALOT of energy!! I just love spending time with my family!!

Maddie's Christmas pictures

These are the pictures Allison took of Maddie that I didn't want posted until I gave them out as Christmas gifts. I think they turned out SOOO cute! She wore the dress my Mama got her from Strasburg and I think it is perfect! She is our world! Thank you so much to my sister for making such special memories for us. I hope everybody had a Merry Christmas!

Christmas pics

Here are some pics that my sister managed to get of Dylan and Maddie. And it took alot of work to get them!! Maddie sometimes doesn't like Dylan's hugs or what I like to call chokeholds but he just gets so excited when he sees "Mammi Grace". LOL. Allison was able to get some more pics of Maddie in her beautiful dress that my mom bought for her. I am going to give those as gifts so I will post them later!! Just wanted to thank my sweet sister for once again taking such great pictures for me!! Thank you and love you!!

~Maddie's 1st time to see Santa~

So, yesterday we took the kids to see Santa! Boy was it crazy!! It was Maddie's first time to see Santa! She did so good until Santa touched her face with his beard...she freaked out! It was priceless! Although it was crazy my sister did manage to get some pictures! I will treasure these forever!

Update on Maddie

Our sweet little will soon be 10 months old. She is doing all kinds of things now. She has been pulling up on anything that she can reach and has been for about 2 months. My wonderful mother-in-law bought her a walking toy and it only took her 3 days to figure it out! She just crawled up to it and grabbed on to the handle and took off!! She didn't just take a few steps she was walking through the house!! I couldn't have been more proud!! She also has started saying mama!!!! I almost cried the first time she said it!! Everyday is a new adventure!! She also says bye bye, claps her hands and the latest is she claps her hands when I sing pattycake!! She is so precious to us and we love her so much!!
