What Happens at Grandma's Stays at Grandma's!

Madeline had a wonderful time at my parents' house while we were in the Bahamas! Miss Madeline was given a glowing report in all areas --- sleep, eating, and entertainment! A week in pictures narrated by Madeline:

I had a good time playing on the floor. I did lots of rolling over and pushing up with my arms! Grandpa even found me on my belly one morning when he came to get me from the bed.
Playing and standing by the bathtub while Grandpa got ready for work was a big hit each morning!

Eating in the big girl high chair was fun despite my appearance in this picture.

Grandma and I played in the grass in the afternoons while we waited for Grandpa to get home from work. (I'm sure Grandma was sipping her evening glass of wine...)

We went to church on Sunday, and I stayed in the nursery just like when I go to my church. After the service, I socialized with all of my grandparents friends, and I sucked on a donut hole's sugary goodness. I accidentally chomped off a big hunk and swallowed it before Grandma could pull it out of my mouth!

Grandma introduced me to the sippy cup, but I wasn't really sure how the thing worked. I sure did enjoy the apple juice on the inside when Grandma held the cup to my mouth without the sippy part.

I loved munching on a carrot. It was still a tad too hard to actually eat, and I wasn't really a fan of bite size green beans or peas. I still prefer mashed green beans and peas.

I really LOVE Mum-Mums! They make a great late afternoon snack.

However, when my Mum-Mum was gone, I thought the grass was a good alternative. Grandma told me "No, No!" I thought only Mommies and Daddies said "No, No!"

We went on lots of walks!

I posed for lots of pictures! This one was taken before we went for a morning coffee at the BoJangles! Grandma and Grandpa's friends meet there many Saturday mornings, and since I woke them up early, they decided to take me to meet some friends!

Grandma and Grandpa really make me laugh. I hammed it up for them!

We played pat-a-cake!

Grandma took me to the gym just like my mommy does. EXCEPT Grandma came to pick me up from the kids' care, and we went to the pool!! I LOVE THE POOL!!! It was my first time at the pool.

Grandpa stole lots of kisses from me!

I played in my exersaucer while Grandma did her chores around the house. I sure did impress her with my ability to play independently! "My mommy is training me right!" I told her.

And, of course, I held the ladder for Grandma while she did one of her chores.

Grandma said I could come back anytime, and my mommy and daddy sure do appreciate Grandma and Grandpa taking such good care of me!
