18 months!

today miss madi turned a YEAR AND A HALF! i hate it. BUT, we celebrated with giving her a gift in bed this morning before daddy went to work. (a my little pony. so cute.) we played with grandma and grandpa at lunchtime where grandpa gave her a great new book...which she read to us. celebrated with pizza and lemon cupcakes which grandma made specially for this day. (madi ate 1...mommy has had 5.) here are some recent pictures of our big girl!

madi is:

happy.

a GREAT big sister!!!!!

a girl with a million faces. everyday there is a new one!

a great dancer and singer.

a bookworm!! (unlike her mommy and daddy. we hope this is a trend for life.)

majorily teething...(still have only 4 1/2 teeth folks...one of which is a molar! she is working on a few right now.)

in love with her daddy...and cups, spoons, water, using her fork, popsicles, pears, her dogs, bubbles and shoes.

great at hiding things...mostly in our kitchen cabinets. (what a can of green beans doesn't belong with the strainers?)

i can't even tell you how much we love this girl.

so, i won't even try.

she is my favorite girl.

she is my sunshine!
