Where have the last six months gone???

I can't believe my little darling is already six months old!  We started squash...woohooo she is definitely a fan!  And we also had to start juice (she was a little backed up if you know what I mean lol) She loved it!

What are you lookin at?  
Yum yum!  Happy Six Months Old Sweetie! We absolutely adore you!

We love it when Uncle Ben come to visit!

We decided since Uncle Ben came up for the weekend (and my grandmother's wedding) that we should do something fun as a family.  We wanted to go bowling but there was a two hour wait! So we played pool instead.
Madison, our lil angel, slept through most of the fun!
Kaylynn was my lil helper.  She loved playing and really was trying to hit the balls.
The stools were the perfect height for her, she had so much fun!

Happy Hearts!

We got mom some pretty flowers, Happy Vday to the best Nana ever!
Chad gave me an awesome digital picture frame and even loaded it up with some of my favorite pictures! What a great husband!
This is Madison's Vday haul! Nana gave her the spoons and cup and Chad and I gave her the food chewy thing.
Kaylynn was feelin the love on Valentine's Day!  Nana gave her Madagascar 2 and Princess candy.  Chad and I gave her a Viewmaster and some Dora chocolates.  
We had a fabulous breakfast.  I had originally planned to make heart shaped pancakes but we ended up having eggs and I cut Costco muffins with a heart cookie cutter.  It was fun and Kaylynn loved it!

Preschool Valentine's Party

The whole group! What great kids! We love our Preschool friends!
Handing out Valentines.
One of the other babies there was snuggling good on Madison.  She is a fantastic pillow! lol
Playing some fun games, this one was Ring Around the Rosies, a preschool classic!  They all had a great time playing games and decorating cookies.

Hmmm...dejavu?

"I think I have been here before...I recognize that tree..."  haha I had a great feeling of dejavu today.  I walked up to a door that I haven't been to for over three years.  I sat down at a desk that I hadn't in three years and I punched a time card that felt familiar although it had a different number printed on it.  If you haven't guessed...I went back to work today!  My former boss contacted me a few weeks ago and offered me a temporary position for a project that needs to get done quickly.  It should last around 4 to 6 months.  It was rough being away from my amazing kiddos for a few hours but the quiet of a cubicle also has it's benefits!  I am grateful for the oppurtunity to work with some old friends and bring in a little extra cash.  I am up for the working mom adventure (although I only work 12 hours a week so I would still consider myself a MOSTLY stay at home mama!)

The Laundry Queen!

I was putting away the laundry and well...Kaylynn had some fun.



We now dub Madison the Laundry Queen!  She is happy to thank her big sister for helping her get ready for the pageant and for all the style guidance.  
I'm sorry Madison! Unfortunately there will be many more embarrassing photo's in the future all thanks to your big sister!

Chillin' with Daddy!

There is nothing quite like piling up on daddy for a nap and a movie!
Chad sure adores his little ones!

Madison at 5 Months old!

So, as usual I am posting this late! But our lil Madison is Five months old!  And she gets more beautiful everyday!



My favorite five things about Madison are 1. Her smile could light up a dark room  2. She is so ticklish everywhere! And when you tickle her she has the cutest little laugh  3. She likes to cuddle right into your shoulder  4.  After a bath she smells like heaven! No really I think that is exactly what Heaven will smell like!  5. She has lil chub rolls!   She is such a sweet little girl and I feel so blessed to have the privellege of being her mother!

It always happens when Mom walks away!

She did it! It was amazing! At least I think it was! lol I have been trying to help Madison roll over for weeks now.  She just never seemed interested at least until today! I set her down and surrounded her by toys and walked away.  A couple of minutes later Chad called me to come take a look and she had ROLLED OVER!  Her arm was still stuck under her and then about two seconds later she got her arm out so it is official! Feb. 3 Madison rolled over.  I caught some pictures of the result of the hard work!
