madelyn loves her dogs. she likes to stand at the door and watch them while banging on the glass and 'talking' / yelling to them. since the weather is nicer she can get a little more interactive with only the screen separating them. it gets a little crazy when she is actually out on the deck, so the screen works best for me.
i didn't notice that she was pointing at and then signing "ball" until after i stopped the video. her sign isn't the greatest, but she does it after she points at the ball or when looking at it so i figured it out (she kept doing it for a while after i turned off the camera - that's how i made the connection). watch towards the end of the video and you will see her pointing/"ball" combo.
this morning i took madelyn to one of the biggest pizza places i have ever seen - unfortunately i left my camera at home. they do a mom's morning out from 9 - 11 during the week and i thought that we might check it out as a practice outing of getting somewhere on time in the morning before her music class starts next tuesday. they had a water play room with cascading tables and toys (they even had vinyl smocks to wear and keep clothes dry), a train room, a pizza restaurant play kitchen, a large block room, a face painting room, and a hamster style play gym. some of our friends met us there too. it costs just under $5 and includes a coffee, juice, milk, pastry, fruit, and cereal buffet. i think that we will try it out again sometime - especially in the winter months.
matt is such a great dad. i know that i am biased, but he is so cute with her. we stopped to get a quick dinner tonight while running errands and matt was sticking cheerios on his tongue and then sticking it out for madelyn's amusement. i had to remind him that madelyn wasn't the only one who could see him... then when we were leaving sam's, matt had her on his shoulders and was skipping. yes, matt skipping. i wish that i could have captured it because she was laughing and squealing and bouncing on his shoulders while matt skipped the whole way to the car. so sweet. i love to watch them together.
good night. love.

I can totally see the signing! She's precious. I think she even said ball just before 1:50 on the video...what do you think? Any who, I love that the random noises run in the family mixed with laughter and squealing...Very cute, can't wait to see her.
Excellent signage! It looks liek the dogs are playing ball for her amusement :) When are you heading south?
