Madison's 1st Food

She LOVES It!!

Her first food was Oatmeal. She was sucking it off the spoon and it was too cute. She looked like a baby bird with her mouth open saying "More Mom".

Happy St. Patrick's Day

Zach's shirt says "Mom's Lucky Charm" and Madison's shirt says "Kiss Me I'm Irish"

The Kids Loved It

We had a really Fun St. Patricks Day. We had four 2 (or almost 2) yr. old boys their and one 1 yr. old boy. Those boys can create a lot of noise. They all had fun playing with each other, but I think they wore each other out because as soon as they left Zach was ready to take a nap. Than of course to add to the noise and fun we had 3 cute little baby girls there too.

When it came time to doing the rainbow craft Zach was not having it, but being the "good" mommy I am and wanting to have this craft in his scrapbook I MADE him do it. The kids did have fun finding the shamrocks until they got distracted by just being outside. Can't wait for our next get together.

A little bit of peace

I really needed to get some stuff done in my bedroom the other day, but Zach wanted to be in whatever room I was in. So I gave him the little TV we have for him in the car and let him watch Toy Story on my bed. Madison woke up so I put her right next to her brother. I turn around and find this. Too Cute!

5 months old

Time is just going by way to fast. Our little Madison is already 5 months old.

Shirt says "I woke up on the CUTE side of the bed"

This is my good side Mom

Madison wants to do it all and doesn't realize she's too small to do everything yet. She loves to cuddle and LOVES her rattle. She rolls over now to her left. She squeals and laughs and is just SO CUTE!

Speed, I AM Speed

Zach had SO much fun going full speed down my parents drive way in a little cozy coupe. He's starting to be a little dare devil

Brotherly Love

Zach LOVES his sister SO much.

I went to go stir the food for dinner so I set Madison on the couch and I come back to this.

When Madison wakes up from a nap Zach looks at her so lovingly and says HI. He loves to be right next to or on top of her. I love that he loves her so much.

Happy Valentines Day 2010

Wishing Everyone a Happy Valentines Day from Our Family to Yours

We found a butterfly and Zach LOVED it

Our Silly little ones

Says "Daddy's Little Valentine"

Says "Heartbreaker"

We celebrated with a nice dinner. We had Roast with Carrots, Red Potatoes and a whole lot of gravy. For Dessert we enjoyed Cheesecake and Strawberry's.

4 Months Old

I can't believe Madison is already 4 months old today.

She tries really hard to sit up now. It's so cute because all she can do is a crunch, but she thinks she's doing so much more. She wants to be standing or sitting always. She grabs stuff on purpose now, but still can't make it do want she wants. She talks all the time and is so loud (just like her brother)

She adores Zach and doesn't mind in the least if he is right up in her face. (which he is a lot)

3 Months Old

Madison turned 3 months old on Sunday. Time is going by so fast.

She is very alert and we are told so by a lot of people. She loves to smile and coo. She knows when it isn't mommy holding her and has already started to cry about it. She loves to watch her big brother and enjoys it when he "plays" with her.

We LOVE having Madison in our family!!

Zachary's 2nd Birthday

We had so much fun at Zachary's 2nd birthday party. The theme was construction. We had hard hats for all the kids to wear. They had fun in the sand box, playing the bean bag toss and digging for tools in saw dust. It was so cold that most of the adults said inside while the kids played outside. When it came time to break open the pinata, Zach didn't want to. He didn't want is truck pinata destroyed. Luckily once the candy came out he didn't worry about that anymore. Here are some many pictures below. Hope you enjoy.

Jake BUILT each tool box for the favors.

Let it Snow??

We went to the snow on Friday, if you can call it that. It was more like ice on top of snow, but it was still fun. We were joined by Sam, Stephanie, Michael, Annallise and Tim with his two kids. We had fun sledding and enjoying the snow.

Madison was bundled up tight!

Watch Out for the robber!

Two trouble makers!

Do you want some Ice . . . I mean snow?

It's SO good

Wrapped up tight!

Not sure why he thought he could ride a shovel.

This tree was covered in ICE! You didn't want to stand underneath it.

We got to the snow at the right time. No one was there yet and we had it all to ourselves for an hour or so. The guys and kids had fun sledding. Zach said a new phrase while at the snow "I'm Cold". It was so cute. We will have to go back soon when there is a little more snow and not so much ice.
