POOR MADDY

Sweet little Maddy tripped over her feet and hit the edge of the door way and the door henge. Check out those knots. Just another day in our crazy lives.

Merry late Christmas and Happy Late New Years!!!! I hope you all had a great one. We did Maddy got spoiled but of course loved it. She got 4 babies. She is one busy mommy. She loves them all and is constantly feeding them kissing them pushing them in her new stroller or telling them to shhhh.
We didn't do anything exciting for New Years. Casey got to come home from school so that was good but other than that not much.
We have had a rough rough past couple weeks. We are in the middle of a law suit. The lady that owns the house we were going to buy before we found our dream house is suing us. At first we thought it was all a bluff but on Tuesday when we got served with the papers we realized she was serious. We had to go get a lawyer and all. Talk about sleepless night and stressful days. Our house we are trying to get is now pushed back until the end of January. So who knows if we will get it. Sad to say but I have become immune to it all I have cried all I can cry and stressed until I make myself sick that I am finally at the point of blaaa, can't believe this is all happening. To top it all off Maddy is sick and Casey has been sent home from trucking school. AHHHHHHHH!! We just keep praying that is all we can do. The last thing our lawyer said to us was don't worry let me do the worrying for you easier said than done hu.
So that is our life in a nut shell. on a Brighter not Check out these cute pictures.

Wow I haven't posted forever!! It has been crazy here. We finally found a house that we both could agree on. The first one we were going to get was just ok I wasn't in love with it but now we have found an amazing house that we both love. If everything goes as planed (keep your fingers crossed) we could have it by sometime next week. Casey joined the Guard this week so that was kind of happy/sad moment all in one. He, so far thinks it will be ok, he met most of his squadron and they seem great so that is a bonus.

Maddy is still growing like a weed. She is starting to copy every word I say or at least tries. Today she was eating Cheerios and I had to run in the back room, I left the box on a place she could reach, when it clicked in my head I ran back to the kitchen as fast as I could and guess what sweet little Maddy had done.... Nope you are wrong, she didn't dump it all on the floor she had put the box back in the cupboard and said ahh..dun (meaning all done). i couldn't believe it I thought for sure she would have dumped it . She usually has a notty moment when left alone, like putting all her toys in the toilet or shoving things in the DVD player or ..... you know how it goes but today she was so good. It was a good day.

We went to a ward Christmas party tonight and Santa was there so these are some pictures I took. Maddy did so good.

This is my fav. picture I used a wide angle lens so it doesn't fit on this blogger template. so I cropped the top and the bottom one I left as is. You will just have to tilt your head sorry. but it is worth it he he.

OK I am done. UP UP UP! is what she is saying.

I can't believe Thanksgiving/reunion is over! All the excitement and anticipation is over, it is kind of sad. It was great though!! It was so good to see everyone, it was just like old times except with a lot more people. The food like always was amazing!!! Mom and Aunt Gail worked so hard in the kitchen and the final product was so so good. We had fun crafts, black Friday talk, football games, story time and much much more. Nic even suprised us with Tickets to Forgoten Carols Thanks Nic!! we loved it.

Casey surprised everyone and came out 2 days before thanksgiving. So everyone (the entire) family was there.

I had a great time taking pictures of everyone. I was in heaven.

Sweet Tysha got Casey and I room at her Hotel it was so good to get away for a night. Except little Maddy had other planes. She got sick on Thanksgiving morning.Mom and Tysha took care of her until I got there. She was up all night this was her first time being sick so it was so hard for her but she finally fell asleep around 3. So here are just a couple of the buzzilion pictures I too

Here is just a cute video of Maddy singing with her Grandma and Aunt Tysha. Aren't her p.j.'s cute Grandma made those today.

"There is no place like Home"

Honestly, There is no place like home. No matter where you go there is nothing like coming home. I don't know if it is Mom's cooking or the cheerpings of the Ginny pigs or seeing all the old people in Portage or what but Portage will always be home and always have special place in my heart. So far Maddy loves UT too. She LOVES playing with her cousins and being spoiled by her Grandma and aunt Tysha. We are having a blast! But we do miss Casey so so much and will be so happy to see him when we go back to Alabama. Every time the phone rings Maddy says Dada! Dada! she Loves her dad so much.

A little update on... Halloween was so much fun. Maddy was a Monkey. We went with Nic and Cyndi and the kids. She was so good and sneaky while I wasn't looking she got in her basket and ate a whole bag of M&N's before I caught her. She loved it. Everyone loved her costume and took a ton of pictures of her.

Isn't this the funniest picture? Maddy was trying to eat some of Bryson's candy and Bryson of course wouldn't let her. I love the face she was pulling.


A couple days ago I thought it would be fun to make something for Casey so he wouldn't be so homesick for Maddy. So this is what I came up with a Magazine all about Maddy. Here is the front cover and just one page of the Magazine. I hope he likes it I had a ton of fun making it for him.

Here are some more pictures of Maddy enjoying UT and the Tree family.
