Liberty's Child Psychology Class Studies Madeleine!

My old high school and the school my mom works at has a group of students studying child psychology and child development. They needed children from newborn through pre-kindergarten age to study so I volunteered Madeleine. She liked being around all the kids and especially stopping by Grandma's work!

The kids had lots of good questions and some funny ones too! One kid asked if Madeleine could walk backwards yet! Not yet!!!

In Grandma's office causing trouble!


Madeleine meets a police man at the school! Don't worry, no one was in trouble!

Madeleine's 15-Month Appt.

Madeleine went in for her 15-month appointment today and is looking healthy! She had two shots today which she did not like - ouch! The doc commented on how curious Madeleine seems to be...as I'm sure most toddlers are. She is into EVERYTHING these days!

Madeleine is in the 83% for weight, 74% for length and 95% for head circumference.

Toddler Time With Overlake Moms Group!

It was my turn to organize a playdate so I decided on Toddler Time at the local community center! All the babies are on the go now so this was perfect - us moms got to talk while the kids ran around and played with all the toys!

Here is Taylor pushing Madeleine around!

More Easter Pics

We had a great Easter! We headed over to my parents house for dinner. We had a good laugh watching Madeleine wear her new bunny ears and sunglasses! It was nice to visit with family too!

Madeleine loved her presents in her Easter basket. She got a bunch of crayola begginnings crayons, stampers, markers and tub crayons!



My mom got Madeleine sunglasses...it was so funny to see her in them!

She also got bunny ears but wouldn't wear them at first. My mom wore them instead and Madeleine really liked this!




Cuddling with Grandpa!

Madeleine loves to give kisses these days. Here she is giving Lucky a kiss!




Sharyn is in her 3rd trimester already!

Happy Easter!

We took Madeleine to get a picture with the Easter Bunny. At first she thought the bunny was funny but when I left her on his lap and walked away, she started to cry. I felt bad for her so I sat on his lap with her so she would feel better.

Mimi & Grandpa Fower sent Madeleine this darling dress and coat to wear for Easter!



Our neighborhood has an Easter Egg Hunt at the local park each year. Last year Madeleine was too little to participate but this year she got right in all the action! Here she is on the way to the park!


Hooray! She found an egg!

I Love My Spoon!

Madeleine loves to hold her own spoon while she eats but rarely does she actually use it to feed herself. The last few days she has been more interested in using the spoon for what it is intended to do and is getting pretty good! She thinks it great to scoop the food and put it into her mouth! I make a HUGE deal when she does it too which she also enjoys! :-)


After breakfast, we went shopping and out to lunch with my mom since she is on Spring Break. We had fun and Madeleine is all set for Spring/Summer....if it ever arrives.
