8 1/2 months going on 16

Here is Madeleine "talking" on the phone today....

Sprinkler Time

What are you to do in 90 degree heat when you don't have a pool???? The answer: put your sprinkler on your front lawn and let your husband and toddler run through it.


I give you a 8.7 out of 10 daddy! Good leaping!

Grandma or Maddie????

Grandma brought up some baby pictures of herself so we could compare them with Maddie. So....it looks like there IS in fact a family resemblance. Maddie definitely has her Grandma's eyes!

First Ponytail

Madeleine had her first ponytail last Tuesday ( Aug. 11). It took a few attempts to put it in but I finally got it. Oh ya...do you think she likes to stick her tongue out????

Sunday Morning Ocean Park

When I am in Ocean Park, I wake up at 5 am to go looking for sea glass and sand dollars on the beach. I am also luck to be able to catch the beautiful sunrise too! When I got back on Sunday morning my parents and Matt were already on the beach!
