I am way behind on updating everyone on what has been going on! So, since last post, we have been quite busy around here....Thanksgiving was a crazy wonderful whirlwind as ususal!! We left Wednesday night after I got off at 9pm. It actually worked out perfect, because Jesse had Maddy bathed and fed, then we jumped in the car and went. She slept the whole way because it was her normal bedtime...it was great! Then, Jesse and Michaela decided it would be a good idea to run the Turkey Trot in downtown Ft Worth Thursday morning at 7am after getting in after 1. O well, it was fun! AND we got to see the Lathams!
The gang who ran!
And me..the moral support :)
We then headed over to my brother's for Thanksgiving lunch! It was so amazing because everyone from my our side and my sister-in-law's side were there...we always have such a great time together! Mom made Maddy and Caroline matching bows and I got Carter and Maddy matching onesies in hopes of getting a pic of the 3 of them together...big HOPE! These are the best I got...still precious though.
We also made a trip to see Grandma for Thanksgiving! Madelyn is so lucky to have such wonderful great grandparents :)
Friday night, Jesse's side of the family went to the Polar Express in downtown Grapevine. It is an old train that you and the kids get to ride on, the kids wear pajamas, meet Santa, and have hot chocolate. They also put on a good show before to get the kids all excited about the ride. It was very cute and the boys loved it! Here are a few pics from the evening.
And this is what Maddy did for the whole train ride...her favorite spot...MiMi's shoulder!
Then, Sunday December 11, our whole family came down to witness Maddy's baptism and celebrate my birthday. What an amazing way to celebrate my birthday! Madelyn did so awesome! I would post the video of the baptism, but it is pretty long and might take an eternity to upload. So, here are a few pictures from the special day.
Madelyn was sleeping at this point.
Polly and I! So so happy she was able to be there!
Can't a girl just get some sleep around here?!?!?
Haley, my love...you are amazing!
Brandon and Kelsey made it too!!
Happy girl!
Maddy also turned 3 months on November 29 (also my Mother's birthday) So here is her 3 month picture! She is getting so big way too fast!
AND....we finally got a video of her laughing....but I can't figure out how to upload it...I will try again later when she is sleeping :)
Always,
Andrea
