The Cyclism

Maddie is all set for Le Tour (The Tour De France) which begins this weekend. She got ready for it by going on her first bike ride which was not a success. But we'll keep trying and soon she'll be spinning up those mountains.

Rodeo Girl

Maddie went to her second rodeo last night and was way too interested in which cowboys were in the lineup and if she could go hang out with them.

It starts.

Toad Pool!

When it reached over 90 last week, we had to buy our first kiddie pool. Melissa and Keller came over and we had a pool party. Okay, it was mostly Melissa and I enjoying the pool while the kids napped, but it was wonderful! Maddie seems pretty happy about her pool.

I scream, you scream!

It's been awhile and Maddie has experienced many firsts:

Ice cream!
Crawling!
Camping!
Beach sand!
Bump on the head!
Climbing stairs!
Pooping in the tub!
Sleeping through the night!

And probably many more things that we're forgetting.
