11 Months Old!


My Family (the horses were WAY more interesting)

"I have to stand here and NOT pick up this stuff?"


Did you know that I turned 11 months on Saturday?? Many people have told my Mommy that I walk "really well" for 11 months. However, the Pumpkin Patch was a whole other story. Man, that is some rough terrain! While everyone was soooooo excited that we were going to pick a Pumpkin, all I really wanted to do was play with the horses! (*They had 2 Ponies available for rides. Madelyn continually walked toward, pointed at, and whinnied for them :)

The highlight of the week was that we went to the Pumpkin Patch with some new friends. Mommy and Ms. Amy met 2 years ago and have been trying to get together since, but one thing after another... Anyway, now Ms. Amy has a baby, Kaelyn, who is 11 weeks old. They have been getting together to walk and talk. Kaelyn doesn't really do too much yet, and Mommy got a little upset when I tried to show her Kaelyn's eyes...

We also had dinner at their house. I happily showed Ms. Amy and Robert everything they will need to move in a few short months (including their dog food and water, which I spilled). I love being helpful!
"You want this one?"

"Daddy the horses are over there."


With it being a long weekend, we got a treat of spending a bit of time shopping in Cambridge and then went to dinner and hung out with more friends on Sunday. I was so tired by Monday that we spent it at home doing laundry and running to the grocery store.
"Mommy PLEASE"


I'm continuing to stay busy and love playing with Mommy every day. Sorry you had to wait for our post this week. Silly Mommy lost track of the days with Daddy home so much!



Love to you all,
Madelyn, Shaye, Jody, and Daisy

I do believe that with every post Miss Madelyn looks more and more like her beautiful Mama. Happy 11 months! We eagerly await those fast-approaching 1st bd pics....
