Labor Day Weekend at Lithia Park.

Hard to believe our little pumpkin is 18 months old!! We have been enjoying the fall days outside and we started back at swimming lessons too. Maddie loves the water still and is really learning a lot. She loves coloring in her color book, playing with her Sesame Street guys, and her new passion is dressing up in necklaces, and also dressing up Clyde her cat.
