Like how I'm just jumping back into blogging like I never stopped? Yeah. Me too...
My Mom has been planning this trip to Babyland, USA since I was 16 weeks pregnant and we found out I was having a girl. It was a tradition for our Nanna to take us kids, and Mom (Madelyn's Nanna) wanted to carry that tradition on. So last week, we took an adventurous trip with a two year old to place filled with baby dolls. The whole thing is set up like a hospital with nursery's and babies everywhere!

You can tell from this picture just how distracted she was by everything going on! You haven't lived until you've chased a 2 year old through a giant sized Doll store! |
Just chilling with her girls! Do you see the puff of curls on that one on the right? Squeee!!!

Mother cabbage giving birth to a new baby! |
After being completely overwhelmed, picking out one baby and all associated accessories, she decided she wanted a different baby. It was a really sweet selection process, she had to hug and kiss each one before saying "too big" or "no". At the end of the time, she settled on a brown haired, blue eyed cutie.
We took her into an adoption room so that we could get Madelyn to focus on a name and settled on Mikayla Alice. She calls her Alice.

All that shopping makes a girl thirsty! |

Feeding Alice lunch of "mac cheese, beans, and tern" (corn) |
|
Playing "where's Alice?" A game she has played with her Grandaddy since she could sit up. |
|
Of course Alice had to go shopping with us, because what's a road trip with Nanna without some shopping? |
Overall we had a great time, by the end of our trip we were all three tired and silly.
I can't wait to do it again when she's a little older and can really understand what it is all about, and is a little less distracted by everything else.
