Funnier Every Day

Maddy truly seems tog et funnier by the day. This whole two thing is quite entertaining. My "maddyisms" book is going to have a lot of entries by the time three rolls around. A couple of examples for those of you I don't talk to on a daily basis:) Sunday morning, Clint and I were taking our morning walk with Maddy and Cailin. Maddy was walking a couple of paces ahead of us so Clint told her red light...there is a car coming. So she stops (we celebrated that moment of listening as well) and watches the car pass. Only moments afterward she turns to her daddy, with her hand on her hip and says, "That's not a car daddy, that's a big truck!" (duh daddy) That same morning, we were on our way to Target for weekly grocery shopping and Madison is getting very frustrated with something in her car seat (a very normal occurance) and started grunting like an animal in heat. Clint says..."Maddy, didn't you just tell me this morning that you are a big girl now, not a baby anymore?" To which she replies, "yeah". Clint says to her, "then can you please use your big girl words to tell us what is wrong." she says, "yeah...this flip flop is making me VERY mad!" It was great. There are a million(it seems) examples of her little "Maditude" and I wish you could all hear them all the time:( THis past week, I had a major scare with the snake pictured below. I opened the garage and found the snake right behind my car...I didn't know at the time that it had JUST been hit by a car, so I freaked out for a moment and grabbed both Cailin and Madison. I quickly realized he was dead and then took pictures to share with all of you. You're welcome:) The pic of her with the adorable little boy is Carl. Carl's mom, Natalie, and I work together. Her son goes to baby school with Maddy and they are only 3 months apart. Can you say PLAYDATE? They had tons of fun and they were cute doing it! She and her Aunt Alli were playing dress up and Maddy was hammin- it up in front of the camera. Many of you will appreciate (or hate) the picture of her in the gator gear (oh yeah) and Dora umbrella...both thanks to the Marshall family....but we love it! Enjoy the pics and have a great week!
