Life has been busy lately. Madeline continues to grow by leaps and bounds. It's amazing all the new things she is picking up, along with the new words she's learning. She'll be 18 months old this week. Matt and I were looking at some older pictures of her and can't believe how much she's changed.
Madeline's new words include "sure" which she uses instead of "yes." I asked her the other day if she wanted to go shopping, she said "sure." Of course when she said it, it sounded like there were marbles in her mouth, but it was so cute. She also says "all done" and continues to pick up any new noises that daddy teaches her. There's no doubt that she is like her daddy.
Memorial day weekend was nice. I had Monday off, so I was able to spend 3 days with Madeline. Saturday was spent at home and at the park. It was warmer than expected so Matt set up her pool in the backyard...she was not a happy camper once her body hit that water. We thought that she would start splashing away, but a few minutes later, she was still crying. Oh well, maybe next time.
We took her shopping on Sunday and got a really great deal on a Little Tyke's car for her. We also got some good deals on some clothes, since she is now grown completely out of all of her 18 month clothing.
Today was spent at home. Matt put her car together for her last night and we showed it to her this afternoon. She had played with one previously at our neighbor's, so we knew that she would love it. She climbed right in. We knew that she would have no problem going into reverse, but she was also able to walk forward in the car as well. She played with that car for about 30 minutes, which I think is a record.
Grandma Peggy then came over and spent the remainder of the afternoon with us. We got to go to the park before it started raining. Madeline loved the park, loved swinging, but threw an absolute fit when we left. She wouldn't even ride in the wagon on the way home...she had to ride on mommy's shoulders.
Here are some pictures from this weekend:
