Madison is as cute as ever running around getting into everything! She's so tall that she has an amazing reach and we are quickly running out of places to put things. It has become especially tricky when I'm trying to put on my makeup, do dishes, or cook. She loves to put on my makeup (or eat it) and she's figured out how to open the dishwasher and use it as a stool to reach just about everything on the kitchen counter (as shown below).
Here she is exploring the kitchen right before we decided to finally put childproof locks on all of our drawers & cupboards.
And using the dishwasher as a stool to reach her favorite snack.
Unfortunately our days of eating nothing but whole wheat, fruits and veggies are over. She still eats fruits and vegetables everyday but refuses to eat her whole grain oatmeal or plain whole wheat (for babies). She has decided she loves Mac & Cheese which the Daycare kids insist on having daily and also loves chips and cheetos (although we rarely buy them)...she must related to her Mommy. :)
Madison absolutely loves to dance; it's so funny! She'll dance to anything; she'll even bop her head to rap music. One of these days if I figure out how to upload video to the blog, I'll have to post a clip of her doing one of her many dances. She also loves spilling a little bit of milk on her high chair tray and drawing pictures in it. And she absolutely loves playing the piano which is exciting to me since I used to play and am hoping she gets the musical genes from both of her Grandpas.
She loves playing ball; we're hoping with her height that she'll take an interest in sports as she gets older. Her new words she has started saying recently are: "Angoo" (thank you), "All gone," "hi," "cookie," "ok" and is also understanding us a lot more.
She'll start Nursery this week in Church-which we're VERY anxious for. I teach Primary and it has become increasingly difficult to chase her around the Primary room. Last week she ran up to the piano and started playing while a little girl was giving a talk. We'll see how it goes.

She is a cutie! She is tall. I can't believe she knows how to get on top of the dishwasher to reach things. You have a very smart toddler!
She is adorable. We need to play sometime. It's not like we live that far away from eachother.
I can't believe how smart she is to be using the dishwasher as a stool. Jayben drags our stools around the house to get what he wants. And he will have to do that forever. He missed out on the tall gene.
She has grown so much! What a cutie!
What a great post. She is so cute! I can sympathize with you on the primary thing. Hannah is driving us nuts there. Last week she went up front and took some of the candy that was for the primary kids right in the middle of the very serious Christmas story and a bunch of the kids laughed. We still have 5 months! Ugggg
She is too precious! I can't believe how fast she is growing! It seems like only yesterday you were at my house introducing her! Hope you had a wonderful Christmas. Happy New Year!!!
