21 months

Here are some pictures of what Madelyn has been up to the last couple of months.


Her Cookie Monster piano is one of her favorite toys now (thank you Aunt Katie!), but she does not like to share it- even with her cousin, Luke.


Madelyn has started picking up her favorite books and looking through them. I caught her "reading" Brown Bear in her room the other day. She also still loves Pajama Time, and Five Little Monkeys.


Maddie's "silly face"... always makes me smile!



Maddie loves playing with her elephant toy- but she doesn't care about putting the balls in like she is supposed to! She just loves pushing the button to listen and dance to the fun music.


Maddie dancing with her daddy at Alexander's bowling birthday party.


Here is Maddie's cousin, Carter, pushing Maddie in the swing at the park. Her mom and dad bought her a swing set last week so she can swing anytime she wants at home now! (well, first it has to be put together!)



Maddie learned to open the cabinet doors on the TV stand and make funny faces on the glass. She is such a silly girl.



Last month, Maddie learned how to stack blocks. She stacked 3 blocks on her own one day, and we are very proud of her for learning this new skill.


Exciting news! Maddie's hair finally fits into a ponytail.



Madelyn has really improved with using a spoon and fork during meal times. She is still pretty messy but loves to feed herself like a big girl.



Here is Maddie dancing to her favorite song from Library Storytime: Bluegrass Jamboree. She gets mad when mommy turns it off.. even if she has just heard the song 10 times.
