One of the Big Kids

Here are my 3 rowdy Indians, Savannah wrapped in her towel, Maddux tackling, and Cooper making sure bunny ears are in the picture. These 3 fight and whine like winners, and get along like best buddies.



Maddux loves to chase and tackle and wrestle. He is so clever. We love him! This week, at his 18 month appointment he was 60% for height and 21 pounds which is less than 5% for weight! He looks like a chubby little marshmallow, yet is light as a feather.



Maddux LOVES throwing balls, mostly in to the street or gutter. He also loves bike rides, in his seat on the back of Spencer's bike. He would spend his entire day outside, and sneaks on to the trampoline any chance he gets. He loves being bounced by the big kids, and insists being on it if anyone else is. He must be included in everything, even coloring at the table while Cooper is doing homework!


Maddux loves his new tug boat, especially bouncing on the trampoline in it.


You know your baby is all grown up when he only needs Mom for food, naps or hugs when hurt. Unfortunately I am fine with him growing up, it will make baby sister's appearance that much easier.

Your kids are growing up so fast, I can't believe he's so big already!

Your children are so lucky to have each other, it looks like they have so much fun together.

He really has transformed into a little boy, just in the last month! Amazing! He's part of the gang now, with wanting to be and do big kid things. How fun.

I love the marshmallow and feather comparison. He looks so cuddly :) And I can just see him sitting and coloring while Cooper does homework! So cute.

It's fun to see how much our kids are growing. It seems like just yesterday that they were our little babies. Jaisey was at like 42% height and 36% weight. I always felt like she was so stocky, but I guess she's just normal. Maddux is so darling. I love seeing how much he smiles.
