Madison Turns 5!

This past Monday my sweet baby turned 5! I am not sure where the time has gone....seems like we just brought home our tiny, dark haired bundle and now we have a tiny, blond princess! We just had our family and the Tomlinson's over on Monday for dinner and cake. Madison requested I make bbq and she wanted chocolate cupcakes with chocolate icing and sprinkles. She is having a birthday party in a couple of weeks at Jumppity Jump...she has been planning this party since last year. It was nice to have a laid back evening where the adults could talk and the kids could play. We didn't even get many pictures since everyone was having such a great time.

Madison is our "surprise" baby. We were planning on having another at that point...Caleb had just turned 1 and I was enjoying him so much. We were dealing with Pam's death and just trying to get through each day the best we could when we found out we were pregnant. I don't know now what I would do without her. She is my constant companion. I rarely go anywhere w/o her....her favorite place to be is right by my side. She drives me bonkers sometimes but I wouldn't trade her for anything! She is spoiled rotten and used to get her way...that is our fault though and we are working on it :) She is absolutely hilarious! I am so thankful to be her mommy and I am so glad that God gave her to us even though it wasn't our timing!

Happy Birthday Sweet Madison! We love you baby girl!
