Kiss this MS

I made fliers to pass out to our neighbors in the hopes of getting more sponsors for the MS walk next weekend. Maddie was so excited and kept saying " this is for Nana." It broke my heart. My Mom has had some trouble with one of her legs in the past two weeks and is having a very hard time lifting it to put her shoe on:( It makes me so scared for her but at the same time motivates me to help find a cure. HOW can there not be a cure for this yet?

Lumberjack

I just get a kick out of how Nathan looks like a little lumber jack in this picture.

Girly Girl Part 2

I was cleaning out the crawl space when I came across my wedding dress. I never had it professionally packed so I took it out to show Madelyn. I knew she would love it but I had no idea how much. She wanted me to put it on and to my EXTREME surprise...it didn't zip! I got it on the best I could and stood up to show her. After a few oohs and ahhs I went to take it off. Maddie couldn't have got more upset. "Weave it on Mama," she said over and over until she began to cry. I took it off and she went to pout and cry in the corner. I offered to let her try it on and that seemed to make her feel better. She lit up. Here she is.

What happened to the scrunch nose?

Nathan started doing this really cute thing with his nose a couple months back. He scrunches it up sort of pants like a dog ...through his nose! It really is pretty funny. I was looking back at this picture of it and realizing that he doesn't do it anymore. I miss that funny little face.

My girl is gettin girly!

Maddie has always been into all things boy AND girl but suddenly she has become a girly girl. Everyday, at some point, she must wear her "princess dress." Today she wanted desperately to wear makeup. We went up to the bathroom while Nathan was napping and had a little girl time to ourselves. A touch of mascara, blush, and lipgloss truly made her feel like a real princess. Oh...and she wanted her hair curled. We tried but the curling iron was too fat to make a real difference. So here she is in all her beauty;)
