My Little Climber

Last Friday after work I sat Madilyn down by the dvd's since she loves to pull them out of the entertainment center and play with them. Once she was occupied I ran upstairs to clean the bathroom. Soon I could hear Madilyn playing on the bottom step, which she has been doing for the past couple weeks. She hasn't gotten down how to get up, but loves to play on it. So I decide to check downstairs to make sure she wasn't stuck on the step. To my surprise the girl was only 3 steps from the top. So I ran and got my camera.
She's so excited about her new skill.
This is a common face I get when Madilyn is coming to get me.

24th Celebration

July 24th celebrations are always so much fun. It's the best time to catch up with friends and family. This year was Madilyn's first time to experience this summer tradition. We made sure to be at all the hot spots during the weekend.
As you can see Madilyn enjoyed the ice cream the most at the Ice Cream Social. :)
Here we are at the Camp O' Rama and sweet Sarah is feeding Madilyn Texas sheetcake and cornbread.
Nicholas helping set up for our dinner. My Mom made sweet pork salad you can get from Costa Vida/Cafe Rio...very good choice.
Saturday morning we headed down to watch the parade. Madilyn really enjoyed the floats. You can see her practicing her new talent...clapping. :)
Nothing like hanging out on Papa's 4-wheeler at the park.
We even made it out to the rodeo on Saturday afternoon with my Uncle Jay, Corin, Mike and family plus Justin made it this year. It was a lot of fun. Madilyn didn't make it through the whole rodeo she ended up crashing out and Lora took her home. Who could blame her with all the festivities that went on. Such a cute girl needs her beauty sleep.
