Three

Hard to believe, but our tiny baby girl is now a 3 year old. Still tiny, but a 3 year old none the less.  It’s unbelievable how much she’s changed over the last year.  So independent – insists on doing everything herself and helping mom and daddy with their chores as well.  She pretty much gets her self ready for school each day.  It’s hard to imagine going back to the baby phase with such a big girl running around and potty trained. Madeline is developing a very strong sense of humor – very dry and frank – it’s absolutely hysterical.  She knows where everything is and just how it’s supposed to be done.  
 
We celebrated her birthday by a big family party at Grandma and Grandpa Webb’s house.  Unfortunately both Uncle Matt and Uncle Bert were indisposed that day, but other than that it was all our people in one house.  We are moving Madeline into a new bedroom to make way for baby, so all the Grandmas and aunts joined together to pick up some room items.  Madeline picked the bedding herself, with my approval.  I wouldn’t have picked pink, but it’s pretty cute.   Additional gifts included Barbies, Barbie's convertible and a jewelry box.
This ridiculous face is becoming her official picture pose. Ugh.

Instead of having a party for our Indiana friends, we decided to keep it low-key this year. (Read: Heather does not have the time or energy to clean the house.)  Instead we will be venturing to the Great Wolf Lodge in Cincinnati with our good friends, the Harless family! 

Madeline and Evan: The first time all winter they've been allowed in the same room.
