Birthday Time

It's hard to believe that our little girl will be 1 in a couple of days. As you can tell we had birthday pictures taken. I think these are my favorite so far. Enjoy!!!

Birthday Hat

Maddie in her 1st birthday hat. She loves it...she starts smiling every time I put it on her.

Birthday Cake

We also took pictures of Maddie's first taste of birthday cake. She was so fun to watch...I think I have over 100 pictures of her with the cake. She as hesitant at tearing the cake apart, she never really destroyed the whole cake. I know she ate way more frosting than cake...nothing like a little sugar overload.

Merry Christmas!!!

We hope everyone had a merry Christmas...we did. Maddie was a little overwhelmed. She enjoyed playing with all the wrapping paper. Overall it was a great day, one we won't soon forget.

Maddie first thing on Christmas morning...she loves the ball pit that Santa brought. She has been climbing in and out of it all day long.

Ducky rocker from Santa

In our new wagon from Grandma and Grandpa will all the great gifts Maddie received from family and friends. Thanks everyone, we appreciate the thoughtfulness.

Lil' Chef

Great Aunt Linda sent Maddie this lil' chef outfit to wear while helping with the Christmas cooking. We wore it today. It is too cute...thanks Great Aunt Linda!!!

Cookies for Santa

Maddie and Mommy baked cookies for Santa tonight.

Maddie with the plate of cookies. We also included some brownie bites in case Santa is really hungry. We left Santa a bottle of beer since our milk is out of date...hope he doesn't mind.
Maddie checking out Santa's treats.

Can't resist the urge to touch the treats...

Or taste Santa's treats!! Gotta make sure they are Santa worthy.

Nothing like cookies and milk before bed.

Penguin Party Hop

I bought this from Hallmark last year during the after Christmas sales thinking our child would really enjoy it. I think it was a great buy...Maddie gets so excited when you push to button and it starts singing. So enjoy Maddie's rendition of "Penguin Party Hop"....Merry Christmas!!!
