Maddie turns 4! - Part II

It took a while to recover from the birthday party with eight 3-& 4-year-olds, but we're back with part II of Maddie's fun-filled 4th Birthday!

First, here are some facts about Madelyn:

Born: Friday, August 6, 2004 at 2:51 AM (after 31 miserable hours of labor)

Favorite color: red (Red is also her dad's favorite color, which is why Maddie likes to refer to him as "Matching-favorite-colors.")

Favorite food: crepes (that her daddy makes, with chocolate filling of course)

Favorite movie: Toy Story (the first one)

Favorite mischievous act: sneaking fistfuls of cake! (when will she outgrow this? and when will I learn she can't be trusted alone in the same room as a cake?!?)

Favorite mispronounced words: "crash cran" (trash can), "yolee bar" (granola bar), "skabetti" (spaghetti)

Dislikes: tomatoes, crust, and sun in her eyes (see previous June post, "Heard at the Hansen home")

Maddie's Quote of the day (said with great enthusiasm) : "Now that I'm 4 years old I get four-minute time-outs!!!"

We love you Madelyn!

Here are some more birthday pics. What a fun day!

I must be turning into my Grandma Sylvia--
taking pictures of all of my cakes...

that Martha gave her for her birthday.
