Madelyn and I did some playing outside this weekend. Since the wind was a little chilly, I made her keep her hood on. She was not too happy about that but it made for some pretty cute pictures :)

There is no doubt about it - Madelyn is a Daddy's Girl. She loves to play with Daddy and will copy anything that he does!! It is too funny :).

I am still amazed that my little 16-month old can build a block tower all by herself!! She loves to build it up and then giggles when she knocks it down :)

I know, I know...It is not even Thanksgiving yet and I have decorated the blog with Christmas. But, I can't help it - I love this time of year!! I love when the weather changes. I love Christmas music. I love the feel of Christmas. This is truly my favorite time of the year and wanted to share my love with the blogging world! :)

Madelyn is fascinated by Gigi and Papa D's kitty. She thinks it is hilarious to touch the kitty! Madelyn was very wary at first but they are becoming close friends :)

This afternoon Derek, Madelyn and I headed down south to visit with my Dad, Betsy and Nannie. Madelyn had such a good time!! The weather was so great that we spent the majority of the afternoon outside...She LOVED running around the golf course :) It was so nice to just let her be able to run around and not worry about hurting herself...She is really getting independent! I unfortunately did not get any pictures of Madelyn with family because she would not sit still long enough :). After her busy afternoon, Madelyn slept the whole way home and is happily snoozing away now!

Madelyn's new favorite hide-out is under the chairs or table in our breakfast area. I am not sure why she is so obsessed with being under there! She will even go to get toys and take them under the table to sit and play with them! What a silly silly girl :)

Madelyn has been really fussy when it comes to eating lately...She does not seem to be interested in it at all so I decided to try a fork. She loved it. She does a good job about 'trying' to spear the food and bring it to her mouth! If I get it on the fork for her she can get it in her mouth! What a big girl :)
