So I think it's totally official my  one year old can WALK!!!! She can now stand up on her own. I think she still prefers to crawl just for the fact that she walks sideways a lot of the time or she walks forward and then starts to walk I mean fall backwards. So I bet by Jeremy's birthday (St. Patty's Day) she will be a 100% walker.

Madilynn is "1"

Here are some pictures from her first birthday. Manly eating her first cake which by the way loved. As you will be able to tell and also stained my carpet-note to whomever don't have pink icing or do it on tile-And then probably 20 minutes after eating her cake she crashed which gave us just enough time to clean up and then she was up for a few hours ready to play when mommy and daddy were ready to sleep. Ahh the joy's of being a mom!!!





She has started to walk. She can't stand up on her own, but if she pulls herself up, she is on the go with the biggest expression of "WOW look at me"! It's really cute. She is totally obsessed with strings. Any kind of string it could be the tiny'est thing and she loves to put it in her mouth and pull it out. It's really cute to watch her concentrate on it for ever. Let's just say it let's me get some things done around the house. I would have to say her favorite birthday gift is her wagon. That Grandma Pam got her. She thinks that is the best thing ever. In fact we had to take it downstairs because I got scared that she was going to fall into it. I can't wait to use it this summer. We now have so many toys, that I have no idea where to put them. You know these days there is no such thing as a small toy. Except my brother and nieces got her these cute girly cars and she even makes the noise of a car. SO DANG CUTE!!!! If anyone know's my layout of my house, I think that I am going to have to make our down-downstairs into her playroom. We don't use if for anything else anyways...!! Anyways I hope you enjoy the pics!!!
