Where's Maddie?

Madison's latest thing (besides speaking her mind - - don't know where she got that from), has been to hide behind things and then laugh out loud. Which makes finding her quite difficult.

Open Commitment?

So a little over a week ago I received the following email:

Dan,

Please e-mail me the family pic you have on the blog. I'll e-mail some holiday pics to you.

Love, Mom

I promptly responded to the above request, and have been anxiously awaiting more 'holiday' pics.

But after a week had passed... I then realized - - I misinterpreted the message. Holiday meant Easter 2009.

All Bundled Up

We took Maddie for a stroll at the mall, our options have been limited given the beautiful weather we've been having. Before we made our grand entrance, we were able to snap a pic of Madison walking in the snow... she handled the elements well.

Christmas Vacation

I admit, I was a slacker with the camera over the past week... that's why I have faith in the rest of my family to send some nice pictures. We took a few in MA... then our camera was pretty much idle in NY. Here's a nice family shot...



Maddie and Sienna playing in Christine's room. It's rather obvious that Madison has a favoritism issue when it comes to her dolls.
Madison, Christine, Emily and Sienna posing on the stairs... this one came out great! and required extreme patience from all parents... you are also witnessing a miracle - all 4 kids looking forward at the same time. I retired the camera for the Christmas Break after this debacle, way too much effort for a thousandth of a second.
