Catching up...

It's been a little while since I've posted on here. Honestly, it's been a combination of business, laziness and just not feeling like I have anything important to say! I am going to try to be better about updating the blog and I am praying about what the Lord would have me say!

So, to catch yall up... we have done a lot in the last few months...

Maddie celebrated her first birthday! She had a hungry caterpillar themed party and it was so fun! We were so blessed by all of our friends and family that were able to celebrate with us.

Lots of food for our hungry caterpillar! 

Us with our sweet birthday girl, post-cake!

She wasn't a fan of the icing, as you can tell! 

Mike and I celebrated 3 years, and went to Austin to celebrate. We had the best time just relaxing and soaking up our alone time. I never realized how much having a child affects our couple time until we were childless for a night! It was such a strange feeling, missing Maddie so much but also loving my uninterrupted Mike-Katy time! We had fun reflecting on our 3 years as man and wife and planning for the year ahead.

Maddie is blossoming into a toddler before our eyes every day! She has been walking since eleven months, but now she is climbing and exploring like crazy. She is learning new words every day. As of today, she knows: mama, dada, book, cup, poo-poo, up, done, more, night night, dog, hi, bye and please... and I'm sure a ton others that I just can't decipher yet! She knows that dogs say "woof woof", cows say "moo" and snakes say "hiss." She understands and follows simple commands and really likes "helping" mommy clean and put away the dishes! She is just precious, and we fall more in love with her every day!

Like I said earlier, I am vowing to be much better at updating the blog! I've already got a Halloween/Pumpkin patch post in the works and an update on our cloth diapering adventures!

Happy Halloween!
Love,
The Vogs
