My Baby Loves Babies
On Saturday night Madeline spend the night at her Gamma and Gampa's house. Kaitlyn enjoys being the center of attention when Mad is gone. KJ and I were playing babies that night. Her current favorite is our only boy baby doll. He is technically Madeline's doll and is named Dylan. She was playing with him, doing her usual stuff like rocking and hugging. I told her she should put her baby to bed. She walked right over to the bunk beds, placed Dylan on the bottom bunk and then looked over at Joe and I with a big old smile on her face. She was quite proud. She then picked Dylan up, put him on the top bunk (which was completely empty), covered him up and then hugged him and kissed him. She also rubbed his face like I do with her when I put her to sleep. After she had him all settled, KJ walked back over to me and I have her a high five for being such a good mommy. Then she went back over to Dylan and tried to give him a high five. Because he's a doll and was laying down, the high five was not so great. So she picked up his hand and gave him a proper high five. Cuter than cute!

Moving Lyrics
I have very recently discovered an amazing band, Mumford and Sons. I was listening to a song of theirs on youtube. There was no video, just the lyrics. I was moved by the following lyric: "In these bodies we will live, in these bodies we will die. Where you invest your love, you invest your life." So simple and so true.

Quick Post
A few things to remember...
Madeline, after being told she was painting Mary's picnic table wrong, said "My bad" to Joe. Um, where did she learn that? She says she doesn't know. She has also said 'my bad' quite a few times since the first time.
Kaitlyn has learned to say no. Great. It has become her usual answer to most questions. She responds with the sweetest sounding 'no' I have ever heard.
Ty loves Grandma Kat's house. The Seidls were over on Saturday and when told why they had to leave (Madeline was going to Grandma Kat's house), Ty cried that he wanted to go to Grandma Kat's house, too.
Ty also loves my girls. So much. My girls love him, too. So much.
Kaitlyn very much enjoys being the center of attention when Madeline isn't home. Then she gets over that and starts walking around, looking for Madeline. "Me Me?" "Mae Me?"
Kaitlyn loves playing with baby dolls. She almost always has one in her arms these days. Or she is pushing one (or more) in the little pink stroller. "Baby" comes out of KJ's mouth many times during the day. She feeds the babies, rocks them, hugs them and pats their backs.
KJ also loves real babies. She always says baby when she sees one. She especially likes to see babies in the infant car seats.
Madeline is loving 4K this year. She is enjoying school much more this year. She is excited to go in the morning. This is very different from last year.
Mad's school had their annual open house last week. Madeline was beyond excited for this event. She could not wait to show Daddy her classroom and introduce him to her teachers and friends. When we there, she took to each friend individually and introduced her Daddy to her friend. She also gave him a very detailed tour of the classroom. She was so incredibly sweet that night. In addition to just being her normal adorable self, she was wearing a new purple sparkly dress that had a tutu-like bottom and had princess and a crown on the front. Everybody loved that she was in purple. Her classroom at school is the purple room.
Madeline's teachers are extremely impressed with Madeline. She is blowing them away with her vocabulary, her manners and her general above average knowledge of most things. So proud of my girl!
Well, this turned out to be not such a quick post. Oh well. All good things to remember!
