Daily activities

Since both Madison and I get bored just hanging out at home all day....we try to do at least one activity a day.  Some pics of what we've been up to.

Visiting with friends


Swimming at the pool


Skiing at Norquay and Sunshine



Cross country skiing at the nordic center


Hiking


Favorite things

Some babies need a blanket, some need a soother....Madison...well she loves Maya's collar.  Yes, it's her favorite thing and she drags it around with her as she crawls through the kitchen and living room.  Maya has decided that her favorite thing is anything of Madison's that makes noise.  Usually it's the blue octopus that spouts out tunes and colours...today it's Sophie the giraffe (she squeaks when you squeeze her).



Now that Madison is mobile and able to reach or crawl to get things...she tends to want what ever toy someone else is playing with, and won't hesitate to crawl over them to get to it.  Normally this doesn't make other babies too happy...obviously sharing is something we're going to need to start teaching her when she's old enough to understand.  But when it's Maya that has her toy....we're not too worried.  Maya can hold her own.  This was their interaction today when Madison realized that Maya was playing with Sophie the giraffe.

Getting around

Madison is really getting around....we've put up the baby gate and now have to make sure we close all the doors (I turned my head for a minute the other day and she found the dog water in the bathroom).   I'm trying to put together a video, but currently Grant is loading new software and then has to teach me how to use it...so pictures will have to do for now.
