Such a big girl now...

All Done!

Patiently sucking

The Park... She insisted on the hat

Morning Mullet

Well, the last 2 weeks have been full of firsts... We took the binkie away and got our first hair-cut!
The Binkie... We (the parents) were getting way too dependent on the binkie... everytime she whined or cried I would pop it in her mouth to chill her out... But we noticed that she would try to talk through the binkie... and not very well at that. We were going to wait till 2 to take it away.... But Joe decided one night- we are going to throw it away. So he took her to the outside trash and tossed it... Maddie said "bye-bye" and then for the next hour or so... she would drag Joe and I to the door and say "daddy did it!" After all of the fuss for the first hour she seemed to forget about it. She went to bed just fine and hasn't missed it since. Such a big girl!
Hair-cut. For those of you who know how little hair maddie has always had... the first hair cut was a hard this decision was... It got to the point where it was an official WT mullet. After several friends encouraged us to cut it... Aunt Sandy almost doing it herself... Joe finally caved. Once he was on board we took her out for a nice family day... Lunch, Park, then to Kaleena. I had to bribe her with a sucker but she did good. No tears... But she has lost some of her baby look. She if officially a little girl. Sad!
