It's Monday!

So I have some cool family news- my little cousin Zachary will be in the movie "Shorts"... hits theatre's in August! I hear he is quite the actor. He does plays in Austin and I cant wait to catch one! Also- my cousin Daniel Northcutt just opened a restuarant in Austin. hotdogscoldbeer.com The same cousin that was a judge on Bobby Flay's showdown on teh food network! So if u are in ATX anytime soon, look it up! Ne who- Madden is snoozing, which means I need to be doing laundry and dishes!! Have a great week.

Went to Mummers again last night while Madden hung out with Grandma Cindy!
Looking forward to a relaxing weekend with the hubby..

More water!

Granny got Madden a new water mat- HE LOVES IT!! He just laughs and splashes and tries to drink the water! Actually anything we do outside keeps him excited...

Father's day!

Last weekend we went to Summer Mummers with some friends! It is the funniest one I have seen... and it's always nice to get out of the house and let Madden have some time with other people. I am finishing up my painting this weekend. I decided to get craftsy and use a stencil to paint the hallway. Bad idea- it took me an hour to do one row! So, I may have to send Madden to Kim's for a day or something because so I can actually get some work done! He always has the best time over there.
I have a lingerie shower to go to this weekend... I LOVE GIRL TIME!!


Dad's day is this weekend- YAY!! It's Jimmy's first fathers day, so it will be a special day! Madden is one lucky lil boy... He has a wonderful father! The longer I am married to him the more great qualities I see.
I am so grateful for my Dad... He is truly a living expression of God's kindness! He has the most positive outlook on life of anyone I have ever known, I can only hope to be half the person he is. Thank you Dad!

Finally a crawler!

At Cara's baby shower two weekends ago, Madden watched the older babies pulling themselves up and decided he would give it a try. Since then thats all he wants to do. If I put him down for a nap there is 100% chance when i walk in to check on him, he will be standing up, peeking over his bed, with a big grin on his face... He thinks he is so big! I thought he had given up on mastering the "crawl", but today he crawled (with his hands) throught the kitched to Bailey's dog food and tried to eat some! Up until now he just kinda scoots or army crawls! As you Mother's know, this is such a big deal! SOO NEAT! He also saw his first turtle today while we were on a walk and was pretty intrigued. He also thought it was funny when Marley got away from daddy on the leash last night and tried to eat the neighbors 4 pound dog!

Quick update

Greenwood Volleyball girls won every game last Tuesday! 8th grade- 12th!! It's only been 2 weeks and they have improved SSSOOO much. Nikki and I are having a blast coaching em... Jimmy said from the stands I sound mean! ha- I assure you that I am not mean, just correcting mistakes. We only have 2 more weeks till the tourney and after 2 good weeks of practice I'm thinking we better win~
Off to check on Madden, he is in the pool with granny!
Oh and we got our first tooth!!
