Toddler Bed

Madison has been sleeping in her toddler bed since Monday night (thanks cousin Lora)! Sunday night did not go well, so she ended back in her crib. Every night she takes awhile to fall asleep, and Mommy usually has to curl up next to her for "just one song." Besides a little problem the other night, it has gone pretty well. Just tonight after we left the room, we could hear the two girls playing. We took a peek and found Madison out of her bed, and playing with Macy in her crib. It was pretty cute. Madison then let me take a picture of her in the bed...and she wanted more than one picture! That's huge, because she hasn't been much of a picture taker. Hopefully Saturday night they will do good for Daddy because I have my girls' night out in Madison!

Musicians

It appears that the girls got their father's musical talents! Macy crawled right over and starting playing on the piano...sister Madison wasn't far behind! She wanted it for herself, but we persuaded Maddie to share with her little sis!

WWF

It seems like Madison's favorite past time lately, is wrestling with Macy. While Jesse and I were getting ready for work today, I could hear the girls playing and found Maddie on top of her sister! The same thing had happened the night before! Funny how the same girl who takes down her little sister (I guess she's already on the ground technically), is the same one who breastfeeds and takes care of her baby dolls so nicely! We just keep thinking that Madison needs to treat Macy nicely, because it appears like she will be bigger than her some day!

Favorite sister shots!

FINALLY we get some cute sister pics! Hopefully more will come!

Dancing

My sister's family gave this life-size dancing doll to Madison for her birthday. We've had lots of laughs with it so far!

Many firsts!

Many "firsts" occurred this week for Macy! She's been so close to crawling for so long, and just took off the other night (of course I was out to dinner with some friends)! Not long after, she started standing up. We'll have to put the crib down since she can pull herself up (notice she wanted out, not wanted me to take that picture). The girls' had their first bath together, without Macy's little bathtub taking up most of the room. I don't think she cared for it too much, but maybe next time. Macy also tried bananas in her mush eater thing, and likes to play around with a sippee cup. She also has enjoyed some puffs - which Madison soon remembered as one of her favorites! We just picked up a toddler bed from my cousin, so that may be the next post!

Busy times!

Hi! We've had a busy couple of weeks, and they have seemed to just fly by! The first weekend in April, we stayed at my aunt's house in Appleton...Jesse had state bowling. We had so much fun, and I posted a picture of the girls wrestling! The following weekend, we went to Chetek to see my nephew's first communion. We also got to meet Julie's Mom! It was so nice to meet the woman who raised my wonderful sister!

This week was filled with lots of activities, but our favorite was watching the two girls play together. It is so fun to know that they will be great friends! Tonight we met some friends in the Dells for dinner. Madison made her dancing debut, on stage with me at Kahaunaville! She was dancing all the way out the door! What a character!

Macy still hasn't started to crawl, but is sooooo close! Maybe by the next post!

Take care everyone!
