madelyn got a post office play set for her birthday from one of the neighbors (thanks, tina). it lights up, makes animal noises with figurines placed correctly in the right spot (eagle, horse, and snail - yes, snail), and sings the alphabet - with a play on letters (alphabet) and letters (mail).madelyn carried it all day the first day she got it and pretty much plays with it before all her other toys each morning. well for the past two days she has been looping her arm through it and carrying it like a purse. it is hysterical! she carries it all over the house like its a handbag. every now and then she takes it off her arm to just carry it, but within a few seconds she has it tucked into her elbow again on her way.
i always say that madelyn is "our boy" because she is so physical (notice the large bruise in the middle of her forehead), climbs everything in sight, collects sticks and rocks, and the list goes on. but, this instinct to loop her post office on like a purse suggests that i might be wrong. maybe she is a girly, girl (please know that i am gasping in horror because that was my biggest fear about having a girl)!
either way we will love her. love.
