Silliness

Madelyn has discovered a new talent - making me laugh. It happens while I'm rocking her to sleep. I like singing her lullabies while rocking her before I put her down. While I am singing, she looks up at me and starts touching my face. She will touch my nose and then squeeze it like she is "honking" a clown's nose. I can usually hold my giggles at this point. Then she grabs my lower lip and pulls it down. And that is when I usually start laughing. I try so hard not to laugh because I know that will only delay her sleepiness. But I'm sorry - trying to sing while a 1 year old's chubby little fingers are holding your lower lip is just about the funniest thing I have encountered. I start laughing and then she starts laughing with this triumphant look on her face. I wish I could get a video of it because it is actually a really sweet moment - even if she is doing it to delay going to sleep.

Procrastination

I have been procrastinating blogging for two reasons:

#1Immediately after Christmas, I knew I wanted to post pictures of Madelyn, but between all the cameras, I have over 300 pictures of her at Christmastime! Looking at them all and deciding which ones I wanted to post just didn't seem fun.

#2 Now that it is the new year, you know that I have resolutions on the brain - and you know that my resolution has been the same since I was 12. So who wants to write about that?!

So, just to show my art at procrastination, I will blog about neither of the above and instead share a picture of Madelyn and her cousin, Morgan, who is only 7 months older. Don't they look like sisters?

Okay nevermind. For some reason, I can't seem to post any pictures right now. I keep getting errors. Is this some type of punishment for not blogging enough?
