Sit-Ups

I have worked very hard recently to try and shed some pounds. I guess Maddy was sick of hanging on the sidelines and watching... Maddy's sit-up...

Species Dominated

Jingle Bell Morning

While I sat back last night and watched my new Mr. Robot clean my kitchen floors, I finally got around to uploading some Christmas pictures.

We had a pretty great Christmas!
Maddy -is spoiled. rotten.

'Twas the night before Christmas, when out on the front lawn,
Papa made sure Dora was not sleeping, not even a yawn.

Christmas morning came quickly, Maddy was all ready and waiting.
She was hoping to see if Santa came, hoping there was no debating.

Now, Dasher! now, Dancer! now, Prancer and Vixon!
On Comet! on, Cupid! on, Donner and Blitzen!
To the top of Lucille! to the top of wall!
Now dash away! dash away! dash away all!

Happy Christmas to all! And to all a good night!

Christmas, continued.

Christmas, Part Tres

Patty Cake, Patty Cake, Baker's Girl

I think we have started a new Christmas-time tradition... Baking cookies with Lauren and family.
Do you see how serious Maddy took the sugar cookies? She was like a baking machine. :)

Creme de la Playdoh

Cousin Paddy gave Maddy a pretty awesome Playdoh ice-cream maker for her birthday. Check out the cool treats we made...


When Ray got home from work he asked if he could make some... Maddy said only if you wear pink glasses.
Guess who obliged?
