catching up, for real--part 1

I have an infant who does not like to sleep much during the day...her naps are usually in the late afternoon or evening, so my days are filled with making baby happy, and not much blogging anymore! Anyhow, I will do what I can when I can to keep up with my 365.

January 9th--We held Maddie's small impromptu birthday party for my side of the family. We weren't sure if everyone would be feeling better, so it was kinda last minute.

I love Maddie's genuine excitement over each and every gift, even clothes and socks. And I quote, "That's dorable!" (yes, she says it without the "a") and "Oh my gosh!" and "It's so cute!" and "Oh a goodness sake" (instead of "for goodness sake") and "I don't alieve it!" (alieve=believe)

January 10--Cute lil' baby foot. She was actually screaming her head off when I took the picture but I was bound and determined to get a picture of the foot. I am a little crazy, huh?

My cousins were in town for the weekend. They don't come very often, and if they do it's always such a quick visit, I don't even get to see them. Their youngest is a boy Cal's age, so when they all surprised us by coming Sunday after church with my Grandma for a quick visit, the kids were VERY excited.

Went to watch the Packer game by Grandpa Bo's. A bummer of a game, the Packers lose in overtime to the Cardinals. 51-45. Boo. Cal was so mad, he seriously went outside and stuck his head in a snowbank. Then he came in and wiped his face off with a piece of blue tissue paper. Haha.
