Babynastics

Maddie is taking babynastics at the local gym in New Braunfels. She is absolutely loving the gymnastics!!! She only goes one day a week for 45 minutes but she wants to go every day. They have the parent (s) come and help the child go through the circuit of activities then the teacher comes around to help. Towards the end of the class, they do a whole group activity with all the kids. Her class has about 7 kids in it from the ages of 18 months to 3 years old. We are so happy that we found this for her and i just can't stop taking pictures of her too. :) Enjoy!!

Our summer recap!

We had a fun and busy summer. There was lots of family coming to our house then we were gone visiting them. We began the summer at home with friends and family coming over to float the river and see Maddie. Then, we went to the Great Wolf Lodge with Mimi, Opa, Aunt Kristi, Uncle Curt and the girls. We had a blast.....it was such a fun place to go with kids. Maddie still talks about the "waterpark." Around the fourth of july we were in The Woodlands swimming and hanging out. The end of July we headed to Port Aransas for a long weekend. It was our first trip as a family with Rae, Andrew, Nana, Papa, Les, Maddie and me!! It was a great vacation and everyone was able to come and go when they needed too. Maddie didn't want to get out of the water. By the end of the trip, she was jumping in the water with no fear at all.
Then, life went back to normal when i returned. School was beginning with workshops and working in my room. It was a great summer with lots of new memories for Maddie! Enjoy our random display of photos.

Maddie was so excited about the waterpark! Its an inside and outside waterpark and she was in heaven!!

This picture got stuck at the end for some reason but its Maddie playing in all of Gemaw's baking pans. She loved them and Gemaw even gave her some to take home.

A little late but....oh well.

Maddie and I went to the Woodlands over Memorial Weekend to see the family. Gigi and Aunt Pauline were able to come down to see us too. We had so much fun just swimming and watching Maddie play babies. Take a look at our weekend, even though we are a little late posting this.








Maddie wanted to have tea like us so Nana got her a little tea cup and she sat so still and drank her tea. It was the cutest thing! She was so dainty and careful with her tea. I just love this age of teaching her new things.

The week after school was out, Les, Maddie and I went back home to hang out for the week. Our anniversary was during that week so Nana kept Maddie so we could have a nice dinner and spend time together. Then, we took Maddie to the dancin' water to play except that i didn't bring a swimsuit so she got all wet! Oh well, she had a great time playing with all the kids.





Maddie decided to help Papa shave his face one morning. She was very amused and kept wanting to help him. Oh Papa.
