Crazy Chaos!

Hi all!

Things have been super busy for us lately. As you can tell because Derek hasn't had any time to post anything. At least the District All-nighter is over. Derek was in charge again this year. Derek was in Louisville, KY for FUEL for a weekend and then in a couple weeks we have FREQUENCY. He's still gearing up for two weeks at camp and a week in Guatemala this summer. While Derek is at one of the camps, his parents are going to come spend a week with Madelyn and me. Derek's grandparents are heading up this way from FL to spend some time with the family this summer.

My cousin, Andy, is getting married this weekend to a wonderful girl, Ashley. Their house is adorable! Then the weekend of the 8th, my sister graduates from Ball State! WooHoo. Can't believe we're all getting so much older. My grandparents are coming back from FL earlier than what we thought. We're excited about that.

Madelyn is and has been for a couple weeks sitting up all by herself. We still put pillows behind her just to safeguard that little noggin of hers. She's also standing really well, not by herself though. Madelyn still loves to blow "raspberrys", especially when she's eating. Although she got my cousin good last weekend right in the face, when they were just playing. Madelyn's been saying "da-da" for a while. At Easter, my sister tried to get Madelyn to say "Dee-Dee" which is my sister's nickname; and my aunt tried to get Madelyn to say "Debbie". Neither was successful.

We have a lot of cute pictures lately of the little miss. You'll have to leave comments for Derek asking for them. We would love to hear from you!
