Watching Grant

Yesterday we watched Grant for a few hours and Madison had fun playing with him. Maddie really wanted to feed him but she didn't want to pay attention so I ended up giving him the bottle and she played with him on the floor.

Easter

Easter morning Madison received a letter from the Easter bunny with a clue to find her basket, "to find your Easter basket go to the place you take a bath." She was like "ugh?', then I said "where do you take a bath?" "In my bathroom!" So she went up stairs and found the basket in the tub and she thought the Easter bunny was funny. (Notice her hair in the picture below. I gave her a bath and spend over a half an hour blow drying her hair the night before so it wouldn't be .... crazy. I guess it was a waste of time)

Getting ready to go to Easter morning service. The church has a brunch and egg hunt after the service.

Waiting for the egg hunt to start. Madison cousins joined us for church. It was a fun time.

Later in the evening we when and had a egg hunt with the girls at their house. We had dinner with the family.

Katie's mustache that reminded me of Uncle Mark.

Easter Eggs

Yesterday Madison got to do Easter eggs with her cousins. They all had fun spending time together.

Madison and Melanie's Birthday

The "Birthday Cowgirls", Maddie and Melanie.
I can't believe the girls are five already. They will be starting school in July which doesn't seem possible. Any how we had their birthday party together since we had only a few days that everyone could make it, the important people and since the same people would be at both parties, might as well have them together.
It's not everyday that you see a pink horse with purple hair.

Madison's present from Uncle David, Aunt Kristi and baby Grant.

Madison with the Webkins dog from Uncle Andy, Aunt Janey, and the girls. Can I play with it on the computer. For those of you who don't know you can play with Webkins online and Madison loves playing computer games and games online.

Double Trouble

We had Melanie over today for a playdate & the "twins" are enjoying living close to each other once again. Madison likes to share that information with perfect stangers, she tells people "my cousins only live 5 minutes away so I can play with them all the time." This is the first time having Melanie over but I think that we will have a lot more playdates to come. It is nice having someone for Madison to play with and they seem to play really great with each other. They should enjoy the next few months playing with each other since they will be starting school this summer and they will be making new friends. I think they will still be life long friends & of course, cousins.

Grant holding Madison's finger. We were at the hopsital at the same time as the Andy and Jane and there three girls. Aunt Janey asked Meghan and Melanie if they wanted to hold Grant and they said not now, she asked Madison if she would like to hold him she said yes as she climbed up on the bed to get ready to hold him. I was suprised that she want to hold him, she held him and than she was done. Later she did hold him again but only for a few minutes.
