Chuck E. Cheese

Another very important first for Madelyn...Chuck E. Cheese! I remember going there as a child and loving it, so I was excited to take M. While it's not quite like it used to be (they don't have the ball pit anymore), it was still lots of fun!

Madelyn playing skee-ball...

and air hockey with her friend Emma...

She loves the "riding" machines, but still doesn't like me to put coins in them!

Chuck E. himself is in the background here (he came out for a birthday party)...this was about as close as Madelyn wanted to get to him but enjoyed watching!

After a little football

and some fishing

it was time to take our tickets to the Ticket Muncher to see how many we had...

She had enough to pick out several wonderful prizes...

that lollipop, bracelet (at her elbow) and sticker sheets!
