2nd Day of Preschool!

Daddy had to bring Madelyn to school on Wednesday because Mommy was taking Marek to the Doctor. He did great! He had her hair done and was there EARLY! Good job Daddy!

What a difference a day makes . . . When I went to pick Maddie up, one pigtail was out, her hair was a mess and her socks were off! Crazy girl. Her cousins, Ashlynn and Chase, also go to her preschool!

1st Day of Preschool!!

Madelyn started preschool at Heritage Christian Church last Monday (8/21). She did great! I put her down and she ran into her class and started coloring at one of the tables!

She's a Bumble Bee at HCP!

Her cousin Dylan is in her class!

Maddie loved her 1st day!

We were given our first assignment at the parent/teacher orientation on Friday. We had to make a placemant with the paper provided. Here is Maddie's before the lamination!

Finger Painting

I let Maddie finger paint in the morning before it got 180 deg (it was only 170)!! She loved it!

Getting used to the squishy, messy paint . . .




















Smiley faces and hand prints . . .












All Done!

More Easel Masterpieces

Madelyn loves to draw. She's getting so good!

And, yes, she drew the smiley face with the hair! Mommy drew the elephant . . .

Madelyn's 1st Dentist Appointment!

My little girl is growing up! I think she might want to be a dentist when she grows up! She's been talking about it ever since.
That's our dentist in the background holding Marek - how many dentists would do that!?

Madelyn getting serious with the rubber gloves!

Marek's Big Boy Outfit

We went to church (Aug 13) and Marek wore his big boy outfit. He looks so old!

Daddy gave him a dip in the pool . . .

Crazy Spikey Hair!

Circus

Tom took little Miss Madelyn to the Circus on Aug 12. She loved the big top! I sent the camera with daddy and . . . well . . . I'm normally the picture taker . . .

Daddy's Little Dude

Marek getting a burping from Daddy . . .

Hanna Elizabeth Arnold

I went to visit Donna and Splash in the hospital to meet Hanna - with family in tow . . .

Burrito Baby

Marek likes to be swaddled really tight! He's my little taco!

Madelyn's Masterpiece!

Mommy bought Madelyn an easel for Christmas but Daddy decided to give it to her early. She loves it and started drawing smiley faces, then stick people! She even draws the hair, ears, arms and fingers!

What a prolific artist!

The Wiggles!!

Get ready - to Wiggle! We went to "The Wiggles" concert on Saturday night with Kelly, Stephanie and Kelly's in-laws. It was so much fun! We had FRONT ROW SEATS! Check out our pictures.

Madelyn was in such awe when it all began.

Here we are before the show! Marek slept the entire time . . .

The Wiggles came out in their Big Red Car!

She really got into it once she saw her cousins! They were all dancing up a storm! Madelyn was showing them where Dorothy the Dinosaur was!

Ashlynn fixed Miss Madelyn's hair for the paparazzi.

Madelyn was cuttin' a rug!
