I love my horse!

Now that Madi is a little bit bigger and can get off an on her rocking horse by herself she has found a new love for him. Bryon was working a graveyard this past Saturday and Madi and I were hanging out at home. She took my hat off the table and thought it would be a good idea to put it on her horses head.

Once she was bored with that, she put the hat on her own head and started hugging the horse....

....and kissing the horse....

When she was done loving on him she was a rockin' fool.

Thanks again "Pumpa" for the great gift!!!

Too cute

Ok, how many kids do you know that cross their legs when they take a bath?

how tall are each of you? B-Ry is 5'11" and I'm a measily 5’4”

whose siblings do/did you see the most? We see mine the most simply because they live so much closer. We would like to see Bryon's siblings more!

who is the most sensitive? Definitely me! No contest!

where do you eat out most as a couple? I would say Chilis

where is the furthest you two have traveled together as a couple? Wells, NV. When Bryon and I were just dating I sold a horse and agreed to meet the people in Wells, NV. All I can say is, I'm glad he went with me!

who has the worst temper? I think that it would be me. I think I actually just have the shorter fuse. He can get mad too, it is just very rare.

who does/did the cooking? I cook. Bryon is an excellent cook, he is just some what of a male schovenist and thinks it's my job. Love you babe!

who is the neat-freak? I think it would be a stretch to call either of us neat-freaks but I have some crazy OCD tendencies and would say that it would be me.

who hogs the bed? BRYON!!! I curl up in a ball and he thrashes all night. Sometimes I wake up to him wrapped in a cacoon in all of the covers.

who wakes up earlier? Depends on the day. Our schedules are so different, if we both work in the morning he gets up first, sort of. I have to wake his butt up and then I go back to sleep for about 15 minutes while he showers.

who kissed who first? Bryon kissed me.

are you two still a couple? Yup! So far so good!

Letters from Mom

Madi, Madi, Madi......

I could count the ways I love you, but I fear this post would never end! I can't believe you are 18 Months old! Where has the time gone? The month of January was full of laughs and plenty of time outs. I couldn't stop laughing when you started "blowing your nose" into tissues copying me. I guess I need to work on blowing my nose a little quieter since you think you have to be as loud as possible every time you do.

I will never forget the day I thought you were giving me the look of death only to realize you were saying a prayer. You had your arms folded so neatly and you were trying to bow your head and close your eyes while peeking at me all at the same time. Priceless!

The day Papa brought home his deer mount and you were SO proud. You ran in the room and covered your mouth and yelled "He's So Cute"! I don't know who was more excited about the deer, you or Papa! It is obvious that Papa is already working his hunting magic on you. You not only can tell us what a cat, dog, cow and horse say, you now know what an elk says too. You have such a short attention span with TV shows but if you start watching a hunting show with Papa, you are glued to the TV. You are even telling the hunters to "shoot it".

You are especially considerate of Daddy when he is sleeping for a graveyard. You tell me "shhhh, daddy sleeping". You look so dang cute with your little finger up to your mouth.

I think one of the cutest things I have ever heard though, was your version of the birthday song. You sing, "Happy Day to you" you repeat that about 100 times and then say someone's name. Some times you just make up names too. On Wednesday you were singing happy birthday to "Shannon". I have no idea who that is, but apparently you did! So cute!!

I guess what I am getting at is, I love you kid!

Its Potty Time!!!!

So I know that Madi is still really young, but lately she has been telling us when she has to "poop". Is that too much information? Anyway, we thought we would buy her a little potty so that she can start the process and hopefully save us from buying any more diapers. I just don't know if she is ready to take it seriously though. She loves to use it as a chair for watching TV. If we put it in the bathroom she'll drag it out to the front room. She loves to lift the lid to sit down too. At least she knows that much! Now she thinks it's funny to store stuff in the toilet bowl and loves to sit on it while she holds her babies.

I just really hope she hurries and figures out that it is for going potty and not for playing on.

Happy Birthday Bryon!!!
