Madeleine seeks the answer to the age old question:



Boxers or briefs?

Makin' a couple of calls from inside The Fort

On the Weekend...



Just making a few quick calls...

"uh, it's for you"

This is called: MULTI TASKING!

Maddie and Bitty Baby. Have I mentioned the love of Bitty Baby lately? And the need for Baby to be bare muck-ed (That's how Britt used to say naked when we were kids). Baby is looking a little rough around the edges as she goes EVERYWHERE. Baby's current favorite activity is going for bike rides. She likes to listen quietly while Maddie talks and talks and talks. When Maddie's not having a running commentary she's making those "ah ah ah ah ah" noises you make when you pat your hand against your mouth while saying "ah".

Who needs a damn bell on their bike?

Just some random pics to give you a Maddie Fix.



Mackenzie, where are you going with that water gun?

Maddie trying on Jackson's shoes.
This girl LOVES shoes like you can't imagine.

Not a very clear picture of Jackson, but boy did I get a good shot of those bars! Lisa, will you PLEASE help me figure out my FRAPPIN' camera? I can't get over how old Jackson looks in this picture. Where's my little nephew? He's such a big boy now, but you've never met a bigger sweet heart.

What did I say about the shoes?

Keel - when Maddie opened that box of shoes you sent and saw the black shiny tap shoes she just about exploded with happiness. SHOES!!!

Maddie and I drove up to Flin Flon for the August Long Weekend. I forgot how great that highway is...

Making pickled garlic with Uncle Britt and Grandpa.

Getting ready to pick blueberries with Grandpa - in the rain. Mother of the Year that I am, I forgot to pack a jacket for Maddie. Lucky for her, she is the exact size of a kitchen garbage bag. Worked like a charm!

I went to Allison's for a weekend of scrapbooking, sushi, and red wine. The perfect getaway. Maddie and her daddy had a great time too. Lucky for them, the fashion police were no where around...



Yellow t-shirt, pink yoga pants and... look closer...

Black mary jane dress shoes. Perfect for gardening.

So cool in the shades.
