Happy Birthday to Madeleine AGAIN!

My moms group got together to celebrate all the kids turning two years old! All the kids turn two in late December, January or early Febuary. It was a lot of fun to see everyone and to compare stories of the "terrible twos"!

The kids ran around and played with all the toys, ate yummy pb&j Mickey shaped sandwiches and even got to have a Coldstone Cupcake for dessert! Madeleine was on a definite sugar high after the treat! The girls who hosted this playdate did a really great job...all the kids took home a book and a fun ball to play with. All the decorations and food were Mickey Mouse themed...really cute! Happy Birthday to Madeleine & all her two-year old friends!

Happy Birthday Grandpa!

We celebrated my dad's birthday with the entire family over the weekend! We had a lot of fun visiting with everyone and my mom made the most delicious food! Yum!


Madeleine loves her Grandpa and couldn't wait to see him!

Here is Madeleine doing her best "smile and say cheese" look. She had a lot of fun with her cousin Kathryn...every time Kathryn cried, Madeleine wanted to hug her or kiss her. Too cute!

Dinner with the Wagars

We had dinner with the Wagar family a few weeks ago at their house. Madeleine was so excited to see Baby Bella and keeps talking about her ever since! The girls played with all Bella's toys and took a bath together. Check out their cute little bottoms!

Audrey comes for a visit!

My friend Julie from college is home again from Chile for a visit! She brought her youngest daughter Audrey over to play! Madeleine & Audrey are about 6 months apart and they had a lot of fun together!

Family Photos in Maui

While in Maui, we had family photos done at DT Fleming Beach. We had so much fun with it and I was really happy with the photos! Jeff & I have already ordered and received the photos we liked and they will be framed and up on our wall soon! I am so excited! Frank from Maui Professional Photography did a great job!

Baby Lauren has arrived!

Hooray! Shannon had her baby...a few days late but before the induction date!

Playing the Blues!

Madeleine got a drum set (with harmonica, whistle, and tamborine) and has been playing it non-stop! I have to say, Jeff & I love it too. We're becoming our own little band over here although I'm not sure how many people would enjoy the music!

Taylor came over the other night and really got into playing the harmonica! These two are best little buddies and decided to lounge on the chair while Taylor played the harmonica for Madeleine.

Finally Madeleine gave up the drums and played the harmonica...she was so proud of herself for being able to play!
