First Golf Lesson!

It's never too early to start learning the sport! How old was Tiger?

Well Chris came home from work one day and was practicing putting in our bedroom. Anyone who has been in our house can understand that our bedroom is a great place to practice putting since there's a lot of open space. Anyway, he was showing Maddie the ball and putter and we got some funny pictures. At first she didn't quite know what to make of the ball. But she got the hang of picking it up and of course had to taste it. I'm thinking, father-daughter bonding....Chris is thinking college scholarship!

Thank heaven for little girls!

With Maddie becoming more mobile lately, we've decided to start saying a simple "no" to her when she goes near certain things like the entertainment center or fireplace. She may be a little young to understand "no" and this video proves it. Or it proves that we have a defiant little one on our hands. Either way, she is making it very hard to be serious because when I say "no" she smiles!!!



I found myself taking a bunch of pictures of Madeline this past week because she has had on some cute clothes recently. The combination of her growing and the warm weather here, made it possible to put her in some new outfits and PJ's. Thanks to everyone who has given us just the cutest gifts. Little girls are the best!

Lounging in her high chair!

Notice the words on the shirt: "My mom rocks" This was a Christmas gift from the Snyders...too funny!

Two Girls, Twice the Fun!!

Here are Maddie and Brooke playing together again. They're a little bigger than the last time we got together (3 1/2 months ago)! We had a lot of fun and Maddie got her first lesson in sharing, as she and Brooke kept stealing the same toy from each other.

Rockin' and Rollin'

Maddie's new trick is rocking on her hands and knees. I think she learned it in her sleep, because I found her in her crib doing this in the morning for the first time! Oh boy, we better get ready for her to be mobile. Right now she is only able to move backwards and she rolls all over the place. Needless to say we'll be doing some babyproofing this weekend.
