Madelyn Rae - 14 months

The above picture is how we find Maddie most of the time. Climbing and getting herself stuck under the table. This time she stayed like this for like 3 minutes with a purse in her hand that was so heavy she could not lift it, but she would not drop it. Love this silly girl!

Madelyn at 14 months! Still has her little cheeser smile when she realized you are taking pictures. It really cracks me up because we never see that face unless the camera is out. She is such a ham! The above picute is almost adorable if there were not so many boogs.

Mason and Maddie! He is such a great brother to her. She is one lucky girl!

Maddie loves to carry around a purse. She loves to wear it around her neck.

I could not help but wonder if her hair was long enough for piggy tails. I was suprised that I could pull it off. This was my first try at it and she looks so cute. Her curly hair is actually longer than it looks. (yes, I am having a blast dressing and doing hair for my girl!)

Maddie follows Griff around everywhere and he is so patient. Here they are playing "Kool Math for Kids" with help from Madelyn.

Maddie loves to draw (and eat the markers!)

February 2012 - Evergreen Pond Hockey

February went by so fast. With Greg prepping for big changes at work and me getting ready for my state inspection for my day-care, we have been totally stressed and working many hours. Luckily, Mason's hockey team had an optional scimmage organized in Evergreen, CO on the Lake. Have I mentioned that we love this hockey team? Yes, I know I have mentioned it.

It was so pretty there and Keegan got to play with them because they did not have enough show up for the event. He was so excited! It was so fun to watch them play together. Griff had a blast skating around. Next time we will bring his stick. This was an amazing place and we ended up seeing several other people up there that we knew.

So, we ended the month with a fun family outing. Oh and the best part was it was really cheap to skate there. Oh and one hockey Dad said to me "You get the Mom of the week award!" That made my day! He said that as I was walking back to "thaw out" the baby! I brought the stroller out there on the ice and had to hike it up a flight of stairs. Maddie was cozy! It worked!

Last Saturday in February- Griff's Basketball Season comes to an end!

Griff got a huge Basketball Trophy!
I hope Griff chooses to play again next year. He was just getting the hang of the game.
Good Job Griff Man!!!

Griff's 1st Season of Basketball

We lucked out with Basketball this year. We got on a team with mostly members of our church. So glad my neighbor Meredith was paying attention to the names of coaches. We new most of the kids and families and Coach Mike and Coach Dane are friends of ours. Yeah!
Way to go Griff for an awesome 1st season!

February 2012 - Mason's Hockey Team - Honor the Mom's

So nice of the coaches to "Honor the Mom's" We have loved this Hockey Team. What a great group of people. Mike Avelar and Stephen Kelly are the head coaches.

This was one Saturday morning after a 5:50 A.M. game. So, for the record, we had to get up at 4:30 A.M. to have Mason at the ice rink an hour before the game. Not sure why they start so early on a Saturday?? We try not to complain too loud :)

Keegan - Sadie Hawkin's Dance

Sadie Hawkin's is a Dance that the girls ask the boys to the dance. Emma Sulivan asked Keegan to go and used shoe polish on his car to let it be known! So cute.

Keegan and Emma went with a huge group. They went to dinner at Johnny Carinos before. YIKES! That must have been quite a sight to see all these teenagers showing up all at once.

Madelyn - 13 Months

First time licking the bowl after making a Sunday dessert with mommy! She is so cute, she actually was licking the bowl. Sweet little cute face!

She loves to empty out the cabinets and climb in.
This is fun entertainment for like 5 minutes.

Madelyn loves to play outside. She sings and runs around with the cutest smile on her cute face! Can't wait for summer time! She is gonna love it.
