11 Months

Maddie is 11 months today! I can not believe it. This year has positevely flown! We are celebrating month 11 in Montana! These days Maddie is pulling up and has even taken a few tiny steps holding on to something. As of this morning, Maddie weighs 25.6 pounds. Her 5th tooth is coming in and her hair is long enough to require a clip. She has added "Da Da" to her vocabulary much to John's excitement and she waves at everyone! We spend most of our days outside with the Huttons, so Maddie is getting some blond highlights and quite a nice tan. She has loved getting to spend so much time with Alex and Avery and they all squeal as soon as they see each other! Too cute.

Since I couldn't decide which picture was best or which outfit, I decided to share a few!

It's never too early to start praticing for the Mutton Bustin' !

Ready?

She's pretty sure she won.

While we're working, Maddie is trying to do her part.

Splash Park

We checked out the splash park today. I wasn't sure Maddie would like it because she can't run around, but she loved it. She is definitely a water baby. We were joined by Alex and Avery, of course, which made all the difference.

Notes from the Road

We are having a great time in Montana! The scenery is beautiful and the weather is amazing! Camp life is good. Of course, having the Hutton House on the road with us has been the best part. It's been great getting to know Alex and Avery better, and they are giving Maddie some major incentive to get up and go. Here are a few pictures from our trip.

Enjoying the swings on the playground. Also, we tried out our first pig-tails.
