Ruby's Blessing

Ruby in her blessing dress. She looked so cute and was so happy. She cried for just a minute because she did not want to wear her shoes. So off they came. Dang- they were cute.

Had to throw in Madsen golfing. He had fun golfing with his cousin Ben.

Madsen is 2

Madsen turned two on May 14th. He loves to golf, shoot hoops, run around and eat otter pops. Madsen is so nice to his sister and says funny things all day long. Happy Birthday!!

A little update

Ruby is 7 weeks old- she smiles and is so alert. She is a good baby and we love having her around!


While I had Ruby in the bath this morning- Madsen put himself to work. He pulled a chair over and emptied the silverware drawer into the sink, then he found a bag of granola and spread it all around. I guess he thought I was bored and needed something to clean up. Thanks Madsen!

This is the face Madsen gives when he knows he is in trouble- Then I can't keep a straight face to get mad at him. He gets away with everything!


Uncle Alex (Alee- according to Madsen) and Ruby.

Happy Easter

Ruby relaxing in her jams after a long day.


Madsen had a full day of Easter baskets, a hunt and playing golf. Here he is drooling his jelly beans while attempting paddle ball. I think my brother Jamie is the only person I know that can do one of those things. Madsen hit himself in the head several times.

First Easter dress

Meet Ruby

Madsen is not sure about Ruby. He usually keeps his distance. Yesterday he decided it would be fun to hold her.

Madsen loves to go and feed the ducks. He is showing his scrunch face as he heads out the door.
