Flower Plate?

Matt thought he was so clever making Madi a "flower" plate the other night with her dinner. We had played outside and cleaned the garage so we all bathed before dinner.

The only problem was Madi didn't really understand. So after she ate all the summer sausage, snow peas and cucumbers she kept asking to see the flower plate.


I think I finally was able to explain to her that Daddy put her food in the shape of a flower on her plate. Sheeeshhh! That's what Matt gets for trying to be "fun"!

Puttin'

Last weekend, we went puttin' with Daddy at the golf course. I think that was the very first time I've ever been on a golf course (if you don't count putt-putt, that is!). So, of course Madi had to take her clubs too and hit a few balls.

It was cold and windy but we made the most of it.
I think there will be many days this summer when Madi golfs with her Daddy.
But as for me I think I'm good. Golfing is NOT my thing!

Cousins!

Aunt Erin, Ethan, Owen & Henry came over to visit us a few days during their Spring Break!

Madi was in HEAVEN!

They play so well together. These two are 2 peas in a pod!

Henry tried out the sandbox too (at my suggestion!).
Unfortunately, he ate some sand too! Poor guy didn't know what to think about that!
The weather was beautiful so we were able to play outside and go to the park.


Come back soon! Madi's already asking when y'all are going to be back.

Tracing

Doesn't everyone . . . Trace letters . . .
Topless????
We do, otherwise we'd have marker ALL over our clothes!

Birthday Cake

Now that Madi knows her birthday is October 17th she always says
"My party's this weekend. We're going to have cake!"
So, when playing with play-doh this week she mixed a bunch of colors to make a "birthday cake."
She knows not to mix the colors but since Daddy was the one "watching" her I guess the rules went out the window!
Thank goodness we have TONS of play-doh!

Silly Glasses!

I saw a cute idea on a blog I read to make fun, silly glasses out of pipe cleaners.
It was quick and easy and the kids can help twist them into shape.
They even posed for pictures with them on!

Then Madi took some pictures . . . of Tucker
And me . . .
Now, Tucker's turn . . .
I'm impressed that they can even hold the camera much less push the button and get eachother in the frame!

Happy 32nd Birthday to Me!

My parents came in the night before my birthday since my mom is having back surgery (AGAIN!) in the morning.
We ate at Lujan's and then had sopapilla cheesecake (my favorite!) at Shelle's house afterwards.
Madi, Tuck & Tripp
I think we said something funny . . .
I'm so thankful and blessed to be turning another year older!
