Madilin Iris Hawkes



I konw this is a little late. Madi my niece (Jaci and Jearame's daughter) turned 8 last September and was baptized in Novemeber. She asked her Grandpa Anderson to baptize her and her Grandpa Hawkes to confirm her. She is such a sweetheart. She has always been the happiest girl and she makes me laugh at some of the things she says and does. We are so proud of her decision to get baptised and become a member of the church. We love you very much Madi!!!

This last weekend we went out to my mom's for their primary Christmas party and they did "Polar Express". They first gave every kid who wanted to go a ticket. Everyone wore there pj's and brought there blankets and pillows. Then they had the bus come around and pick everyone up at their houses. So they came and picked all the grand-kids up at my mom's house. My aunt Jeannine was the conductor on the train and she was cute. She punched everyone's ticket as they gave it to her to get on the train. They rode around and picked everyone else up. They ended up at the school where we met them and ate sacked lunches, popcorn, and hot chocolate. Then they all laid on the floor with their blankets and pillows and watched polar express. Maylee pretty much just ran around and danced all night. They gave each child a bell and then Santa came. It was so much fun for the kids.

YEAH!!!

In most of my pictures of Maylee, she has a binkie in her mouth. She constantly is asking for her binkie and I hate it. I am sick of always loosing them and buying new ones. The only thing that I like about them is that when she is crying in church or somewhere that you want her to be quiet, just stick it in and she's good. Well last week we only had two binkies and she threw one in the toilet so I threw it away. And then on Friday we went shopping with my sisters and she lost it somewhere. Well I was going to buy new ones before we went home, but I didn't. So I thought I would try and not give it to her. She kept asking me for it but I told her that it went bye-bye in the toilet so she was saying bye-bye binkie and went to sleep without it. I was so happy. She hasn't had one since. Though sometimes when she gets tired or board she will ask me for it, but I just try to ignore her. I thought it was going to be really hard to get rid of that thing, but it is going really well. YEAH!!!
