Walking!



This is Day 2 of Madeline walking independently! Not too bad! There are less and less kabooms everyday!

Uncles Matt and Joe come to visit!


Watch out!


We went to a great local PYO farm to pick blueberries (http://stuffwhitepeoplelike.com/2010/03/14/132-picking-their-own-fruit/). Madeline had a blueberry buffet!


Playing with Uncle Joe.


We had a party with some Rock Band action, thought the outfit was noteworthy. Madeline pointed to the "necklace" on the shirt and said "pretty."


With the b-day boy, Uncle Clem!

Visit to State College

We went to State College over a long weekend to visit our friends, the Finkes, since they have moved back to Penn State. We are thrilled to have them so "close!"


Two very tired princesses reading with Erinn on the first night.

Ellie and Maddy hugging. So cute!


Pig statue!


Family!


Matching PSU hats! For some reason, they were trying to remove them in the 90 degree heat!!


Lounging.


Checking out baby Jack - possibly the most adorable baby ever!


We also got to visit with our friend Jess and her beautiful family! Here is the crew blowing bubbles.

Playing with the baby

Sorry about my incredibly irritating voice, but this shows Madeline's emerging interest in pretend play. Her "baby cry" cracks me up everytime!

I think she likes corn....

Enjoying some dessert.


She made this hysterical face when I told her to "smile!"

Summer, Mike and El come for a visit!

Auntie Summer, Uncle Mike and Cousin Elliot came over for a few days! It was really nice getting to see them and spend some QT together. Here are a few highlights.




Sharing a moment over the greatness of the giant pink bunny!




Story time. Yes, it's Star Wars.

Girl's day in!

The two boys got to get together and do whatever it is they do when they do that, so Jen and Ella came to our house and we had a girl's day!




Piggy paint!
