Two Thumbs Up

January 13, 2009

Today Maddie and I did something I’ve been wanting to do for a long time – we went to a movie in an actual movie theatre.

Maddie’s Methane

January 12, 2009

Madeline has mastered the fake cry. She wails, kicks her legs around, and starts the waterworks whenever she sees fit. She’s so good at her fake cry that she often fools her grandparents and daddy.
