Our Little Cupcake

     The rain still poured down - poured like we've never seen it do before.  Daddy is half-tempted to build an ark, and Mommy was tired of hearing the weather radio's siren go off to let us know about flash flooding here or there.

     We've got a great weather radio to let us know about tornado warnings and severe thunderstorm warnings - but when that thing keeps going off at 4:30 am to let me know about flash flood warnings in the next state ...that's when it gets unplugged and the batteries get pulled out!

     Madison slept right through it, of course.  She sleeps through just about anything at night, really.  Only twice since we've met has she gotten up over something serious.

     As you can see in the photo above, Madison has been quite the little chef lately!  She's pictured here making seasonal cupcakes for us - each one with a little pumpkin candy inserted at the top.  Meticulously, she places each one in to make sure it looks just right.  Then later, she gets to eat one, and that's when it gets really fun!

     Today when Daddy got home, we watched Snow White for the first time.  Since the movie is being rereleased on DVD in October, we've been seeing Snow White in the stores and elsewhere.  Madison's eyes were glued to her princess television set, but the highlight had to be the scene where the dwarves go dancing around (and yodeling).  It's a nice extended scene where Madison and Daddy got to dance around the nursery.

     We had a quiet dinner together tonight as the rain still fell.  This soggy forecast has put a damper on our plans to go to the Gwinnett County Fair tomorrow, but Mommy is ever resourceful with activities for the future.  She'd be a great cruise director!  Tomorrow, we're heading to an indoor facility called Imagination at Play.  It's located in Buford, and here's your teaser:  You'll find out more about it tomorrow!
