For those of you that follow the blog i have been nothing but superb at ignoring my postings. I apologize. For a short synopsis of Madeline's life since the last post she is incredible. She turned 22 months on Tuesday of this week and i cannot believe she will be 2 in April. She talks all the time and is a true red head with the short temper and strong willed manned that comes with it. she loves her television programs on Noggin and switches between Dora and Blues Clues with her favorites. She enjoys playing in her kitchen and loves helping daddy cook dinner at night. Her responsibilities around the house consist of telling us what to watch on TV, feeding the dog and telling us when we need to refill our glasses or plates. She loves to be bossy and tell people when they should say Thank You and is now sleeping in a big girl bed. she is still learning the potty training thing but doing quite well considering we aren't pushing it in the littlest bit yet. She gives kisses out to anyone and everyone and can do butterfly kisses and Eskimo kisses as well. She still has that sensitive skin we've been dealing with since day one but we're learning better methods at keeping the rashes at bay. Right now she is obsessed with having her fingernails and toenails painted and with putting on her own shoes without help from mommy and daddy. She still enjoys reading and has now gotten quite interested in coloring. She is so good with the crayons, she uses one and then knows to put it away before grabbing another. All in all we are enjoying every min of being parents and cannot imagine our lives without our little Maddy. I will try and update again soon but can't make any promises.
