Madison: 19 Months

Okay...so much for being caught up with blogs...my new excuse is...our camera broke...imagine a household with 3 babies, two dogs, a cat and a very playful kitten...no one knows how the camera's lens managed to be jammed at an odd angle...but it is...so until it gets fixed, I am relying on Aunties Jenni and Amber to take pictures for us...which is great, but then I don't have the pictures to upload myself...so...anyways...I am including links to Auntie Jenni's blogs so that pictures can be added later...maybe...if I find time...

On October 12, Madison turned 19 months old. She is starting to try and communicate more and more, although the words we hear only happen once and then never again. She loves to run through the living room to her dad, or uncle brad, or granddad and be thrown into the air. This child has no fear.



Madison is still a ham...She loves to make people laugh and be silly. She has started to spin herself in circles until she is dizzy and then tries to run down the hall. She loves to wrestle and play with her daddy.

For Halloween this year, we went as the Flintstones. Madison was Dino. Here is her costume...the hat never stayed on long enough to get a picture of, but the tail was down right adorable as she waddled her way around everywhere.

The kids went and visited Grammy Tammi at her office's Treat Street. It was fun, although we didn't quite get there early enough to miss out on the scary parts of treat street. Madi did great. We also completed our first official trick or treating...we went to one house and decided that was enough, so we hung out at Grammy and Granddad Cone's house and watched the trick or treaters come to the door. I think Madi sampled every kind of candy in the house...

We have had a beautiful fall. The weather was in the 50-70 range up until the middle of November. It has been nice enough that the kids could still go play outside in short sleeves and they have enjoyed it. Grampa Hitt built a new patio in his back yard, and during the process, built a temporary sand pile in the back yard. The kids had a ball playing in the sand.


Our newspaper box is across the street in front of Grammy and Grampa Hitt's house. Madison loves to go get the newspaper. She wants to carry it home. She loves to help out.

The Aunties watched the kids one day this fall, and decided it was a good day to take some fall pictures of the kids. Here are a few of my favorites that Jenni took. Check out her personal blog for more pictures of the kids, and her photography blog for more of her work.
