One Year Old and Summer Time!

I can't believe how fast time has gone by! August 15th was Madilyn's first Birthday! She has grown so much and is now 20lbs and 29 inches tall. Madilyn now has 4 teeth that have cut through on the top, in addition to the 2 she already has on the bottom. She loves to try new foods and is not a picky eater at all. She is eager to walk, but not brave enough to try without holding on to something or someone. Madilyn cracks us up all the time by having random conversations and randomly laughing! She loves anything that has to do with music. When Mommy sings to her to help calm her down she will try to sing along. She also loves clapping her hands any chance she gets, and waving to people. The bathroom has become her new favorite room. I know that's strange, but she is always crawling in there to bang on the tub and grab her bath toys. Madilyn has also become a pro at going up (and sometimes down) the stairs.

We have all three been sick a couple of times lately, so pictures this month were a challenge, but I gave it a shot anyway....

This summer has also gone so fast! Lucas completed his first semester of school and got all A's! YAY! In July we had our wonderful friends, the Wastarts, from Colorado come to visit us. We have missed them so much and had so much fun with them! We toured Temple Square, went swimming, ate yummy shave ice, and went to a carnival! We also had fun just hanging out like old times. Madilyn and baby Ally played so well together and loved to hold hands!

At the beginning of August we were lucky enough to go to Lake Powell with the Fannin side of the family! We stayed on a houseboat and had fun playing on wave runners! It was SO hot and humid, but we had a great time! We even had a Birthday party for Madilyn on the boat so the Fannin side could celebrate with us!

I used my photoshop to merge the photos of Lucas going off the slide on the boat!

Madilyn was very dainty with her cake!

As soon as we got home from Lake Powell, my parents were in town and we had another party on Madilyn's actual birthday with the Pitcher side of the family.

She LOVES to tear paper!

Saying goodbye to Grandma
