Random Picture Re-Cap


Madeline wanted me to take a picture of her room when she was going to bed, so that she could always remember her "Tinkerbell Lights". Jen gave them to her for Christmas last year. They are cute little stars, and look like the fairy Dust that Tinkerbell sprinkles on the children to make them fly.


She made this hat in Pre-School last Thanksgiving. I have no idea where she found it, but it made a comeback on Monday night. She's one VERY blond Indian Princess.


Danielle took me over to a Scrapbook Sale in Centerville yesterday and the kids had a ball just hanging out and having a road trip. Kaden and Madeline posed for this picture, but that does not make it any less cute!


Madeline and I wandered over to the dentist today to take care of a surface cavity on her back tooth. They gave her Nitrous oxide on super low (No topical or needle much to my surprise), a Visor video machine that played Bambi for her while she lay there, a balloon and a princess tiara AND a slinky afterward. I swear, she looked me in the face and said, "Mommy, that didn't hurt AT ALL." THEN she rolled her eyes. :)

So all is well in the world of Madeline and her love for the dentist still exists. Miracles. I never got all that stuff for having a cavity. I just got THE TALK about having to brush!


31 Days till Disney!! So today I bought a tote for the trip. C'mon April, hurry up and go away already!

Madeline's Fun Day/New Camera




As you can see in Exhibits A-D Madeline had one absolutely incredible day playing with the kids in the neighborhood. I am so glad that I could document her fun! Justin's dad and brother helped me pick out an amazing Nikon D60 and some killer VR (Vibration Reduction) lenses so that we can keep some of these memories in awesome clarity. We're getting super excited to go on our cruise this spring and can barely contain our anticipation. It is much like looking forward to Christmas! We will definitely post pictures after THAT vacation!

St Patty's With the French....Bonjour! *Hiccup*...


Madeline had a lot of fun at school today making hats and searching for leprechauns! She didn't catch one, but she did find his chocolate bars of gold! (Hershey bars covered in gold foil) Then for dinner tonight we made Green French Toast with Granny Smith Apples and Turkey Bacon. ( I found a maple syrup that is 15 calories per 1/4 cup of syrup! WHO EATS A 1/4 cup of syrup???... besides my friend Brad that is...)

Was a good day all in all!
