Santa Day at School

We all figured Maddie would probably not enjoy her first visit with Santa due to her fear of strange men, but she proved everyone wrong!
Her and Santa were fast friends after a quick Santa treat gifting.

Such a big girl!

Baby's Little Fort

I just had to post this cause it is so cute! Her and Tiggie sitting in her "fort" reading her tiny twas the night before christmas book.

Hanging out with Grandma and the Lawn Gnomes

They even dressed alike that day hehe. Here is Grandma, Maddie and one of 5 lawn gnomes baby likes to play with in Grandma's driveway garden.
Madison lined them all up very carefully, making sure they were facing foreword, then she sat herself and Tiggie next to them.

She then got up and layed them all down

and her and Tiggie did the same.

What an imaginative little girl!

Another Mis-Posted Post

Her Madison is at the Corner Coffee Shop killing time before we head to the Thanksgiving party at her Daycare/school. She had so much fun in this chair. We killed at least 30 min no problem. The Thanksgiving thing was real nice. All the kids sat together to sing for the parents. Maddie was a bit nervous that I would leave her there soo she sat in my lap. All the kids sang and did hand movements to Turkey Day songs. There was one of the last ones that Madison must have liked best cause she got pretty excited and sang a bit and did a stearing wheel movement. It was so precious that I teared up a bit. Too bad I was holding her and could not get any shots of it.

Lost Thanksgiving Post

I posted this earlier to the wrong blog:


The gathering was great! It was so great just to see everyone!!!!! Seems like it has been so long. I wish we could get together more often. I feel like I did not get to visit with everyone, but that happens a lot lately hehe. Maddie loved watching the waves from the wall.

Madison and her cousins Gregory, Riley and...

(the newest McNutt) Eric ... aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawe!!

Snow Lepard Festival at the ZOO

Grandma, Madison and me all went to the zoo to see the snow. Here we are at the penguins looking at the new baby penguin.
Some of the enclosures had a snowy suprise for the animal. Here the elephants got a huge pile of snow to mess with.

Maddie got to ride the train. Tiggie came too (her new best buddy).

We all had a fun time!

Rain Drops

Madison's first rainy rain puddle day. I opened the door to our appartment and she just stood in the doorway trying to figure out what to make of all the wet out side. I urged Maddie out and she immediately found a puddle and jumped in it!
As you can see...I was a bit late getting her to Grandma's.

Then, on Saturday, I got her boots on and went out in the rain in search of some major puddle fun. It took her a while to get used to the boots...they are way too big. We had a bunch of fun! By the time we were walking home, she was realy gettibg into it.

It made for a real nice baby and mommy day!!
