Climbing Bear







Maddy is growing up so fast it is hard to keep up with her. She still only takes a few steps but that doesn't stop her from getting into things. The other day I heard her laughing while I was doing dishes. I went out to find that she had climbed up into the rocking chair and was rocking herself. Maddy is a great climber. I've found her climbing up Abby's step stool to reach the sink, and I have to watch to keep her from climbing up chairs and onto the table. Most of all she loves to climb into our cupboards and pull out pots and pans. Jared was sweet and drove down to Portland on his day off to buy some beds for the girls. When he came home with the beds Maddy got very excited to have some new boxes to climb on!

That is funny that Maddy has figured out how to get on the rocking chair. The other day, I watched Courtney hoist herself up and rock (but she was standing up) on the chair. She was also pretty pleased with herself (I was a not, needless to say). It is amazing how a baby that can't really walk sure can climb. She has so much hair - what a cutie.

Hey Hey yeah for more pictures and updates. Does it seem like maddy might turn out looking like Grandma Donaldson a little bit?
