Pictures post as promised!

Knock on wood things are calm so far this week!  But Madalyn is definitely keeping me on my toes.  I don't think she is meaning to be naughty, she is just fast and has NO FEAR whatsoever.  I have decided since the snow is melting quickly that I am going to get hook and eye latches for the screen doors and put them up high enough so neither kid can reach them...that way Marissa isn't aiding in Madalyn's escape plans.  I can totally see her taking off for the barn this summer or playing in the road.  I can't believe how big the girls are getting.  Marissa is going to be 4 in May and Madalyn will be 2.  That is insane!  Marissa has turned into such a caring and compassionate girl who is quick to give out hugs and kisses and hang out as a family no matter what we are doing.  Madalyn, although going through a kind of trying time, is so sweet and "innocent".  She tries hard to copy everything we are doing and sees no reason why she can't obtain it.  Its so sweet to watch her idolize Marissa and try to walk exactly in her foot steps.  Here are some pictures from the last week or so.

Madalyn climbed in her bed to get her puppies, but didn't make it back out...she is passed out cold.

Same afternoon as the picture before Marissa fell asleep on the living room floor like this...
