We were in Knoxville for the 4th of July and celebrated Maddy's birthday with the Baker clan at Nana and Papaw's house. Vicki found cute Elmo things to decorate and we made an Elmo cake. The 2nd cake didn't turn out as great as Elmo, but everyone ate it just the same. Maddy loved all of her presents, especially her princess camera. She tells everyone, "Stop, no moving," before she takes the picture. Gosh, I don't know where she gets that?
Poppie with 1 grand-, 4 great-grand-, and 1 great-great-grandchildren!
This was the only family shot we got. Not great, but can you see how much she loves her camera. Thanks Abbey and Morgan!

Our nieces fed Maddy chips to keep her happy. She's learning fast who to go to for the good stuff. Definitely not Mama!
We tried to recreate a family picture they had of three other kiddos in this wagon. Maddy was really excited to hold Rayna (far left), but Rayna was not so excited. Bella (far right) was perfectly content being posed and propped up any way we wanted. The funniest part was the video Nana took of all the moms singing "If You're Happy and You Know It..." to get everyone to smile. I'll post it later when I find it.
The Baker sisters with their (current) baby girls.
Nana made Elmo hats for all of the kiddos. We tried to get them all to wear them for a picture, but it just didn't happen. Maddy still has it and loves wearing it while she watches "Sessie Street."

Cakes. One monster and one messup. Oh well!
Papaw got Logan and Adam's old tricycle out. Maddy rolled down the driveway and then he would drag her back up. They did this over and over again until the party started.

Happy Birthday my big girl!
