Me x 3.

My first tree.

Being Madisyn's first Christmas, she decided she would help with decorating the tree. First, she got a little tangled in the lights. When she figured that out, it was time to put on (or in Madisyn's case take off) the ornaments. She actually did try to put the ornament back on but couldn't quite get it.

Where's Waldo?

Well, Madisyn isn't crawling yet, but she sure knows how to get where she wants to go. She's close to crawling, but we're starting to doubt if she'll crawl at all. She seems to really like standing now (with a little help). She's even trying to pull herself up on things like the coffee table and her crib.

See if you can find the little squirt!

There she is!

Um...I'm not sure about this one. I guess its Madisyn's "Sleep Cap."

Birthday Bash!

Madisyn attended her first birthday party last weekend for her friend Reese. Reese turns 1 on the 14th. We had a great time. She even got to have a little bit of birthday cupcake.

Madisyn and her first taste of cupcake.

The Birthday Girl!

Happy Halloween!

Here are some pictures from Madisyn's first Halloween!

"Trick or ..."

"BOO!"


Madisyn's first costume...a little fitness girl.

Like mother like daughter.


Um...No comment.

Dot-ober 30th.

No...contrary to what it might look like, no one threw up dippin' dots all over the wall. Although that might be what it looks like. This is Madisyn's new room decorations. Although Dad still doesn't quite know what to think, Madisyn seems to love to look at them and thats what counts! Thanks to (Uncle) Ryan for helping cross this project off the list.

Our Little Pumpkin(s)!

Today after our walk we decided to take a couple pictures of Madisyn with her pumpkins (Specially grown for her by Grandpa Schultz)!

Thanks Grandpa!









Here's a few other pictures from recently...sorry for the delay in updating.

Go. Pack. Go.

Well, the Packers are off to a great start, and we think we know why! The lucky Packer Onesie. So I guess Packer fans can thank Madisyn and Megan (who got it for her). Okay...so she hasn't worn it every game...but they haven't lost since she's had it. She'll definitely have to wear it this weekend at we try to fend off the Bears. Who are you cheering for Reese ;)

Playin' around.

Here's some shots from us playing the other morning.

Slumber Party!

Madisyn's friend Reese (Jenny & Ryan too) came to visit this weekend. It was Madisyn's first sleepover (Both stayed in her room.) They did great...they only cried twice, once when the movie ended and once when they were out of popcorn ;) They seemed to have a lot of fun. We went to the zoo with Simon (Jeni & Adolfo) and Jenny and Ryan taught Mom, Dad, and Courtney a fun new card game.

Can I help you?

Look at me...I'm in the BIG bathtub.

Look WE'RE in the BIG bathtub.

This is FUN with a friend!

Riley hasn't made an appearance in a while. So...here he is! He's really starting to get this whole 'having a sister' thing. Day by Day he gets more comfortable with the little rugrat.
