The weekend of April 16-18th was a FUN weekend for us……….we went to Wichita and Madelyn started walking nonstop, we had a lunch party with all of our friends, we saw Darin, Julie and the kids, we spent a lot of time with Jim’s parent’s and grandmother and lastly we celebrated Kyla’s First Communion with her.
I took off Friday and spent the day with Madelyn and packed for the weekend trip. Madelyn was doing a lot of walking which I was excited about. We got to Wichita around dinner time and enjoyed a family dinner at Carlos O’Kellys! After dinner we met Grandma & Grandpa and Grandmother’s house and Madelyn was ready to show off her walking skills!!! She walked all over Grandmothers house and really enjoyed the new puppy that the girls have. Although she was not happy when I loved on the puppy and was very jealous.
Saturday we woke up and went to Maggie & Scott’s house for a fun pizza party with all of our friends and their kids and we got to meet Baby Gavin. Our good friends Haley & JJ had their first baby boy on March 20th and we finally got to meet him. He is adorable!!! Greg and Adrienne were there with their twin boys and all the kids were ADORABLE and had so much fun together!!! Nora, Maggie’s oldest has always adored Jim and had so much fun singing and dancing with him. Madelyn had a great time but was not happy when Jim or I held baby Gavin…..I guess she is not ready for any babies in our life :) After Madelyn’s nap we headed West and visited the Franco/Frazier family. It was great to see them! Julie has been one of my best friends for years and I really miss her and her family. The boys and McKenna had a great time playing with Madelyn and were nice to her even though she was a little cranky J Saturday evening we enjoyed visiting with Jim’s Grandmother and going to out to eat with Jim’s parents at Piccadilly. It was YUMMY and according to my father-n-law “the scotch is cheap” :)
Sunday we went to Kyla’s First Communion and it was a very nice Mass and she looked beautiful. The Mass was very, very, very long but Madelyn did pretty good. We went to the cry room once because she was getting a little antsy and had to quickly leave after she went up to Kara (Tony & Becky’s little girl) and grabbed her doll and took off with it. We had to go outside and have a quick conversation about how you act in church and sharing!!! After the ceremony Christy & Jeff had a very nice lunch reception. It was great to visit with family and Madelyn had a blast playing with all the kids.
Jim was telling me on the drive home Sunday that he just couldn’t believe how quickly Madelyn started walking when she decided she was ready! He went to work Friday morning and she was only taking steps here and there and when we encouraged it and by Sunday morning she was walking out of the hotel lobby and all around church!!! What a grown up little girl we have J
