The weather has just warmed up in NOLA in the past few weeks and prior to that we've tried to stay busy. Below Maddy and I are riding the carousel at the zoo. She loves seeing all the different animals, elephants are her favorite!
Being super cute while we wait on the oil change for our car
We were going to be at Mom & Dad's during Madison's birthday weekend, so the Sat. before we left, we had an impromptu party....the kid loves some cake!
She wasn't a willing participant in our family photo
Keith left for Greece on the 12th for a class. He had a great time, but we missed him dearly. It was fun being at Mom and Dad's; lots of distraction so we didn't think about Daddy night and day.
She's accomplished.
Lots of fun at her birthday party! She actually blew out the candles, yay!
More CAKE!
She loved all her gifts, among the favorites were the Pooh bag and the stool Papa made her!
It was time. The hair was a little out of control. So at 2 yrs and a few days, we went for the first haircut. She was great until the cape came out, she was not a fan at all!
The finished product! She's adorable, and looks old.
Maddy had lots of fun with all of her Aunts and Uncles while we were in GA. She tried to put on Christie's rain boots and couldn't stand up so Alan helped, it was hilarious!
I'll leave you with this:
I just love her, she's gonna be such a good big sister!
Just a few things coming up for our family:
Jeff & Christie's graduation from college
Jo graduation from high school
Our 2nd baby due in August
Britton & Tara expecting baby #1 in October! yay!
Jeff & Court's wedding in October
Keith graduating seminary in December
One last thing: My aunt Tammy has recently been diagnosed with breast cancer and has already begun Chemo. Please join our family in prayer for her!
I've painted my left index fingernail pink as a reminder (That was Alan's idea and I ran with it)!

Thanks for the excitement :o) We're excited too. I LOVE Maddy's hair!!! It is sooooo cute. I told Britton I want my hair to look like that, and he looked at me like "um, she's 2." Then he looked at the picture and said, "oh! That is cute!!" It certainly is a big year :o) Don't forget I'm planning to graduate in December! Also, I love the paint your nail pink idea! I'm so gonna do that...so, did Alan paint his nail?! Are you guys gonna be there over Easter?? Sorry for the long comment :o)

That is a big year. All exciting stuff. When are you going home next then. I need to call you to catch up. The pink nail thing, that is a great idea. Can I join in on that prayer chain and paint my nail pink.
