Happy Father's Day!

Here we are the first time we met Maddie

Happy Fathers Day! I'm so glad to be Blessed with such a wonderful man to be raising a family with!

Here's William and Maddie on his 1st Fathers Day in 2011.

Here they are today, just one year later.

14 months

You are 14 months old today.
I think you weigh around 25 1/2 pounds.
You are wearing size 4 diaper.
You are wearing 12-18 month clothes.
You are wearing size 5 shoe.
You walk/run everywhere!
You have 4 teeth now.
You are quiet the loud talker now. You say so many different things-uh oh, No, Jack, Momma, Dada, Daddeee, Papaw. I'm sure there's more, that's all I can think of for now.
You have such a sweet personality but, you have started throwing fits when you don't get your way.
You still like to be read to but want to be on the go when we read to you.

Summer happenings...

We stopped by the Library one day this past week and Maddie thought that every computer we passed that she must touch it:)

My little one getting so big!

She lives carrying her backpack!

Bear needed his teething ring.

This is a rare still moment...

Trying to stand on her head.

Trying to escape.

Watching some Mickey Mouse Club House for a minute.

Riding my Zebra!

Putting Daddy's sock on for him.

She wanted to wear my nightgown.

Maddie finally cut her 4th tooth today. The top left.

Tennis tournament

William and I had a tennis tournament this weekend. It's the big tournament that our fitness center holds each year and it's a lot of fun!

It's sponsored by spam.

Friday night William played his 2.5 singles match and won-7-6, 6-2 and I lost my 2.0 singles match-1-8.

Due to the rain the matches had different scoring to speed things along.

William took this picture of me during my match on Friday night.

This was my first real singles match against anyone other than William.

Saturday we played our 2nd 5.0 mixed doubles match and lost 2-6, 4-6.

This was the first time I had ever played doubles and I really had a lot of fun with William being my doubles partner even if we didn't win.

I have a lot of work to do especially in doubles!

Here we are during our doubles match.

Here's Maddie watching us play.

Sunday William won his 2.5 singles Final game 8-1, and I won my 2.0 singles Consolation game 9-8.

Here's William during his match.

Here is the loot that we won!

The towel is Williams championship towel and the other stuff was my consolation win stuff.

When we got home Maddie wanted the balls that I won, so we gave her some we weren't using and this was very entertaining for her...

Can't wait for the next tournament! Tennis is a lot of fun!

Outside fun.

This is usually how we end up when I have to use my computer, Maddie ends up with the iPad. So, we are trying to learn how to play gently with it and not stand on it!

I was loading some things in the van and Maddie climbed in the driver seat and was trying to drive.

She is getting so big!

She loves these necklaces but she doesn't actually wear them the right way. It's still so cute!

She loves to play with this stethoscope and have me listen to her. Maybe one day she will want to be a nurse too;)

She loves to swing in the backyard and she will walk up to the swing and play with it when she wants to get in.

The horse came and visited while we were outside swinging.
