guess who is 16 months old now?? miss madeline... and getting funnier by the day. she now takes any little handbag she can find and carries it around wherever she goes, filled with her little toys. she continues to gabble away in her own little language and tell us everything she knows. she's bopping her head away every time music is on and dancing around on the floor in circles - just generally loving life!
just this week she has learned how to hug - waits for you to pick her up and then throws her little arms around your neck and squeezes you tightly and then pats you on the back. such a darling. we hear her in the backseat of the car and in her bed when she wakes up calling us to come, mum! mum! dad! dad! so much love for us... we are so lucky!
last sunday at church she was thrashing around in our laps at church - then threw her head back and started yelling, when much to my surprise, i discovered a big fat molar wedged in the left hand side of her bottom gum. and oh my goodness was it huge! i don't know how it even fit in there! but sure enough, it's come through, followed by another one in the same place on top and one just about to break on top on the other size. little tooth machine!
we've also been taking maddie's portrait shot in the cane chair for a year now. it is wonderful to look back and watch her growing. it's amazing to look at these two a year apart and see how different she looks! i seriously thought she couldn't get any cuter - but then i saw this! cluck cluck cluck. what can i say? i'm obsessed.
last but not least... i thought i'd make you suffer with cute overload... lisa and brandon sat with us on sunday and ella and madeline spent the entire meeting trying to hold hands. oh i love them too much... i have to go now before you all feel sick from all the cuteness! haha x
and rightly so...they are gorgeous...(love it that you took the pic in church.tut tut!!!)
