Cosmetic Upgrades

My mother went in for a little eye-lifting yesterday. This has been something she has wanted since before she can remember. Right now it looks like she paid someone to give her a couple black eyes, but I am sure the transformation will be awesome. She will not let me post pictures... trust me, I tried.

Waking up to this little face is probably the best thing anyone could hope for...

Compliments

The best compliment that I ever receive, is that Maddy looks like me.

Dear Maddy my sweet,

You Are My Sunshine

My only sunshine.

You make me happy

When skies are grey.

You'll never know, dear,

How much I love you.

Please don't take my sunshine away.

Love,

Mumma

Day of Memorial

What a great weekend! I am wiped, so here are some pictures.

Maddy and Papa were tired after our BBQ last night. Maddy made sure to tuck Papa in...

And Sam...

And then....

WAM! Covers stolen!

Also, here is a bonus. ..We woke up this morning to baby birdies at our back door.

1, 2.... 10!

Saturday morning Ray, Maddy and I woke up early and started getting ready for our mini road trip. Papa came over with Maddy's usual Saturday morning munchkin order and to do a quick check of the garden. As soon as Maddy's belly was full we packed in the car to pick out our new... puppy! We had to drive a little over an hour to the breeder, but it was well worth it! We take him home in a few weeks, Maddy is psyched.
During our "road-trip" Maddy started shouting. Loudly. She is usually a pretty quiet little girl, so we let her shout and tried to listen to what she was saying. Then we heard... 1! 2! 3! 4! 5! pause, pause 8! 9! 10! 10! As my heart strings were bursting with pride we shouted along with her and counted to 10!

Happy Mother's Day to my Nana. I love you and miss you so much.
