Cats don't like water or have hands!

On Sunday night we walked Maddie upstairs so she could take a bath before bed.

She was taking her time so to get her to quicken her pace, Joseph said "Hurry! Scaredy Cat is going to take a bath too!" and Maddie says "No, cats don't like water!"

And then Joseph said "I put some books in the tub too, Scaredy is going to read them."
Maddie said "No, cats don't have hands!"

She is so smart and funny!

Ivan's 1st Birthday Party

On Saturday afternoon we headed over to our friend Julie & Paul's house for their son Ivan's first birthday party!

Maddie had lots of fun exploring and playing with Ivan's toys. She especially loved his toy car and it was the first thing she played in.

Our friend David got some really great photos of Maddie enjoying her cupcake with blue frosting! In fact she only ate the frosting and didn't touch the cake!

Playing with pasta and cups

At the doctor's office I took some cups with lids that I thought Maddie would enjoy playing with.  We had a birthday party to go to later on that day so we needed to keep her occupied so I brought the cups out along with some old pasta we are never going to eat. Voila!  New sensory toys!

She loved pouring the pasta into the cups and lids and we got a good 20 minutes of her playing by herself before she started to make a mess and pour the pasta onto the floor.

Lots of Smiles!
