It is so hard to believe that 16 months have FLOWN by! Madison keeps me on my toes and keeps me running most of the time. She is definitely my little spit fire, and watch out, if she doesn't want to do something she can throw a tantrum that puts Hailey's tantrums to shame!! That being said, she really is a sweet little girl. As a tribute to her sixteen months, here are sixteen things I love about Madi:
1. I love how she gives kisses, and then promptly responds "nigh, nigh."
2. I love to watch her dance.
3. I love to watch her make Hailey laugh.
4. Even though I do get a little tired of it, I love how much she loves being with me!
5. I love to watch her little face light up when Dave comes through the door at night.
6. I absolutely love her blond curls!!
7. I love how she holds her lovie bunny, and has named it "nigh, nigh," and she must always get it out of her crib whenever we go into her room, but yet she puts it back before we leave.
8. I love how she nods yes with her entire body.
9. I love her love for the outdoors, and can't wait to take her skiing and hiking.
10. I love those sweet moments when she snuggles into me and just lets me hold her.
11. I love that her and Hailey get to share such a special bond as sisters, and I love to see how she admires Hailey and the things that she does.
12. I love to watch her excitement as she discovers something new.
13. I love her stubbornness, because I know that she is becoming her own little person, yet I hope that it goes away before she is a teenager!!
14. I love her sweet, gentleness and hope that this remains with her forever!!
15. I love seeing her smiling face first thing in the morning and right after naps. It is such an amazing unconditional love, that I swear grows each day, even though I am pretty sure I can't love her anymore.
16. I love that she was such a surprise yet I could not have asked for a better surprise. Even though life can definitely be crazy with the two of them being so close in age, I wouldn't trade it for ANYTHING in the world!
Lunch time wore her out!
