Christmas!

Maddie had a wonderful christmas. She got lots of toys like Elmo's restaurant, puzzles, stacking and shape sorting toys, books, and lots of other great things. She had a good time opening presents, spending time with family and eating lots of christmas cookies.

All about puzzles and shape sorters

Maddie is loving shape sorters and puzzles. She is so proud of herself when she finds the right shape. Maybe Santa will bring her some toys like these!

Christmas Pictures

Heather did Maddie's christmas pictures on Saturday and they are great! Maddie did not want to sit still so it was difficult to get good ones, but Heather did a great job with her!

It's December and Maddie's 2nd Christmas is coming up

The holidays are once again exciting in our house. I am so excited about the presents I've gotten her. I can't wait to see her open them. We're not going overboard this year because she is still a bit young and doesn't need alot of toys or clothes anyway. We need to get the house in order so we can decorate and put up the tree. I think she'll love looking at the tree and hopefully not try to knock it over.
I got her a cookie monster doll and some sesame street books which I know she will love.

The cookie monster doll looks like this.

Maddie's mom-mom bought her this table and chairs set and she'll love it!

And she also got her a toybox which is much needed with all of her toys sitting all over our living room. I'm sure she'll love to go digging and climbing in it!

I'm also having Heather (http://simplylifephotography-byheather.com/ ) take Maddie's christmas picture this weekend so we can use it on our christmas card. I can't wait as she does such a great job. (She did her 1 year pictures as well)
