Tulip Farm

Even Though Madilyn had a cold we REALLY wanted to go to the Wooden Shoe Tulip Farm in Woodburn this year. We have wanted to go the last two years but havent been able to make it happen. Mike had been before, but I never have. I also Had promised Tessa I would Take some spring photos of her children but it had been really crappy weather until this weekend.

So sun shining, and Madilyn feeling a little better we headed toward Woodburn. What we have learned about Madi, is that she loves to be out of the house around people. If she is having a bad day your best bet is to take her out in the carrier, even if its just to the grocery store. I wish I could say its being outside, but thats not the case. There has to be people around. Sometimes I will walk her to the little park by our house. She will be upset most of the way there, but once we get there and she sees the other children and parent, she feels better. We were hoping this trip to the tulip farm would help her mood since she had been feeling so yucky.

At the farm we saw tons of cool stuff for kids to do. We decided we would have to make this a family tradition just like our trip to the pumpkin patch in the fall. Madilyn started out in the stroller, but as is normal, before long she was yelling and the only thing that made her happy was the carrier. I hope when she gets bigger she will like the stroller. For now I dont mind carrying her around.

I took several photos of Tessa's kids, but Madilyn wasn't in the photo mood. :) Even though we had her dressed up cute, the best photo we got was of her and Amelia looking at each other. I got a pretty cute/funny one of Madilyn ticked off though.

We had a good time and Im looking forward to next year.
