This past weekend was very quiet. The weather was cool (compared to what it has been) and gloomy...hard to believe it was the end of July, first part of August. We really didn't have much planned. Originally we were going to head to the beach but the weather Saturday morning didn't convince us otherwise. So, this week I've decided to share just a few pictures we've taken since we got home from Atlanta. Last weekend Madison was attached to the hip with her monkey. She took him everywhere. In this picture she was preparing for "going shopping". With purse and "child" in tow, glasses on her head, she was ready to go (other than the fact she was still in her pajamas!).

Madison likes meal time...if you haven't figured out from the pictures. Not sure what she was eating at the time but she sure did enjoy it...smiling after every bite. And as you can see, monkey is still within reach!

As we continue to work on potty training, it seems that she understands the concept well enough to teach it to Monkey. She is obviously doing something better than we are since she tells us that Monkey is going poo-poo on the potty and she continues to have to clean up after him! Her potty training is going well for the most part. She knows to pee on the toilet when we remember to tell her it's time to potty but we haven't been able to get the poo-poo part of the training completed yet. We were on to something last February since she was using the potty but since then we haven't been really pushing poo-poo on the potty and it continues to be something of the past.
'We picked up a bit of peaches on our way home from Atlanta and although they were hard when we picked them up, it didn't take long for them to begin to ripen. I had my fill (sort of) of whole peaches, cut up enough to freeze for snacks later and what do you do with the rest? You make MILKSHAKES!!! Madison loves her a good milkshake and couldn't get enough. She could be the next poster child for "Got Milk?" What a ham! We sure do love our little girl!!!!! She is impressing us more and more each day. She talks like never before and she carries on full conversations with us now. We don't understand most of what she is saying but we do get an idea of what she is trying to say. If we repeat it back to her and it's not quite the idea she is trying to get across she is quick to let us know that that is not right and tries again. It's so much fun!!! 'Til next week. Love Tiff
