New bed

Ok - it's not really a new bed. Just a new rail.
M moved up to a "big girl bed" exactly one month ago. We fully anticipated a brutal transition, so we made the switch over Memorial Day weekend. Well, it's been nothing but easy and seemingly no big deal. As you can see, she was pretty excited and it seems as though she really loves the fact that she can take her "fan club" (i.e. Minnie, Big Bird, Buddy Bear, etc.) in and out with the greatest of ease. We did have one nap incident where she was trying to play instead of sleep, but quickly reinforced that it was "nap time, which means it's time for sleeping and not playing." She's definitely not a baby anymore. A fact which blows my mind...

22 months (a little late...)

If you know me, you know that June is the busiest month work-wise, so I'm trying desperately to catch up.
On May 24, Madelyn and I went outside to just plain have fun in the sprinkler {and water our trees.} As you can see, she loved every second of it. So much that I don't think she cared how wet her little feet, leggings and dress ended up. She even started paying so much attention to the camera that she fell face first into the sprinkler. I think it just shocked her more than anything. She's growing so fast and is such a sweet, little lady.
