Catch up!

So it's been forever since I've posted...sorry. I really don't have an excuse, here are all the posts I should have been doing all this time in one!

First:

In January we celebrated Mahlon's 29th Birthday. We went out to dinner with his mom and sister and brother-in-law and had a yummy ice cream cake.



Second:

Chocolate face.
I gave Madison a piece of Chocolate...this is what I found a few moments later.


Third:

Valentine cookies.
I have heart shaped cookie cutters so I decided to make Valentine's Day Sugar Cookies. I let Madison help and she loved it! unfortunately, my camera battery died before we finished...luckily we didn't use all the dough so the next day we finished baking the rest of the cookies and took pictures (that's why she has two different outfits on!)


Such a big helper...I love the flour on the nose!


She LOVED using the cutters and would not let me help her, she'd push my hand away and say "no" if I cut out any cookies. I kept having to re roll the dough because she kept poking holes in the middle of all the cookies with her little fingers.


When she cut one out she'd get all excited and say "Did it!"


Enjoying the end results!

Fourth:
Madison has been sick for a few days, with a cough and runny nose. She was up late last night and was pretty tired. She asked to watch Tinker Bell (her new FAVORITE movie) so I put it on for her and figured she could watch it for a little bit, then have lunch and take a nap. After about 20 minutes, it was pretty quite in there so I went to check on her and this is what I found. Poor thing!

Love it! They get so into their shows sometimes, it's funny. I would love for Jenna to take a nap that way on occasion, but she normally stand about a foot from the tv when either Elmo or Backyardigans are on. Too cute!

Thanks for the catch up! Madison is getting so big and super cute. I love her dimple in that one picture and the chocolate face is priceless!
