So... I am well aware that I have been a bad person and haven't been updating the blog. Once again I blame it on the adjustments to the new schedule. It really does take a lot out of you when you have to get up at 6:00, work all day, come home and take care of a baby, and then go to bed and do it all over again. But since the last time we had a real update much has happened.
Maddie is no longer toddling... she is a full blown walker now (though sometimes she walks like a drunken sailor). She is INCREDIBLY smart... she throws stuff away for us just from us saying "Can you through this away for us please?" She knows words like "happy"... in fact you can fast forward to the last picture and see what her reaction is to the question "Are you happy?". She talks a little, blabs a lot. She watches cartoons now, her favorites being Dora the Explorer, The Backyardigans, and Wonder Pets! But enough about that stuff... on to the pictures.
Oh!!! One other thing I forget... we went to a Civil War re-enactment and Maddie had a blast with all the people in costumes! Check out the pics below.
I am a bad person for putting her shorts on her head...
Maddie and Daddy and a Horse.

The General's Meeting
Sisters that LOVED Maddie!
She had a really pretty dress!
Vote ABE 2008!
Yes her hand is stuck, yes she is crying, yes I am not helping, yes I am taking a picture instead.
She is going to be a plumber some day.
Yeah, she was only 12 weeks along when she took this picture...and yes, there is only one in there!
She has a tendency to sit on the heads of dogs. Why? Your guess is as good as mine!
Brushing the teeth...
Ahhh yes... the happy face!
