This weekend we went to see my mom--even though it was chilly that didn't stop Maddie from enjoying herself on the beach. She got to go fishing too and caught 2 Bluegill! The first fish she caught swallowed the hook so Pappa Bri had to come to the rescue and help get him off the hook but the 2nd one Maddie got to help throw back into the water. We couldn't keep her out of the water, bummer that the weather didn't cooperate and keep up with the warmth.



The other night Maddie yelled down to us, "You forgot to let me brush my teeth!" So Johnny told her to get to the bathroom and he was coming up. Soon he yelled down to me, "Mommy, you might want to come up here and bring your camera!" I knew she had managed to get into something but had no idea what it could be this time. Imagine my surprise when I saw this:

Hope everyone is having a good weekend!

Maddie having fun at the mall!

Emotions!

Maddie has been very VERY emotional yesterday and today ..she cries and has a fit at the slightest thing. If you tell her no she cries, if you tell her yes she cries, she doesn't know what she wants to do or how to feel. Its exhausting for everyone involved. For the most part we tell her to deal with her feelings and try to work it out but there is only so much crying for NO apparent reason a person can take sometimes! I just keep thinking to myself, if she is like this at 4 I can't wait to see what she is like as a pre-teen and teen!

The other trait Maddie is mastering, sneakiness! Our little princess knows how to sneak better that Swiper the Fox! Her bed seems to be the black hole hiding spot, if at any time we can't find anything we just go pull her sheets back and its usually there, along with other things we didn't know were missing yet! Alot of the time it is our toothbrushes, what's up with that?

Maddie is no longer a baby, duh, I know...but she is now wearing 5's in girls tops and even though she can wear a 4t in pants it wont be for long! Her only problem is she doesn't have any boo-tay to help her hold her britches up! She apparently doesn't get that from me! LOL!

In the scrappin' world:
This is from our first family trip on '06 to Myrtle Beach...

Thought for the day:
"You laugh because I'm different...........
I laugh cause I just farted! "
LOL!!!

I let Maddie play outside yesterday, when I went to check on her this is what I found...

She got into the spackle, had it all over her clothes and I had stripped her down before I realized, what am I doing? Grab the camera!




Poor Reese was a victim too:



I guess this would be Maddie's work of art for the day:
