Congrats Caleb

Way to go Caleb!!! We traveled to Hamilton over Memorial weekend to see Caleb Gray graduate from High School. Even though it was very warm in the gym, it was very nice to be there for Caleb's speeches (he was class president AND Valedictorian after all). Maddi & Grady still didn't have much interaction although it was a little more than at Christmas. Maddi got more birthday presents and plenty of attention and I only managed to break one thing while I was there. I think I speak for Kris Minckler also when I say "sorry about the ceiling fan"! Hopefully we will be invited back. Just kidding - Bill said we could break anything we wanted as long as we came back! And we are very much looking forward to seeing everyone again at the Lake in July.
They must be so tired Daddy was giving me a hard time when I started pulling on Grady's Cubs blanket. Go Cardinals!!! Playing with Amanda
So..... how've ya been?
Here Uncle Jim, you have a snack too!
This book and Grandma Elaine are hilarious :)

Party Time

Maddi's birthday party was this afternoon and she had the best time. She got some way cool presents and had so much fun playing with them. Chris & I are happy to get back to somewhat of a normal schedule after our busy times at work. We are looking forward to a few days off and seeing the Gray family this weekend as we are traveling to Hamilton to see Caleb graduate.
Playing with Clippo Hippo
Mmmmmmm.......... why have I never gotten to do this before?!
This horse is pretty cool - I can ride it and it neighs and wiggles it's tail
Big thanks to everyone for coming - I love my new clothes, books, and toys! Luv, Maddi

Go Maddi - it's your birthday!

So it's not technically her birthday yet - but only 3 hours away. We can't believe how fast this year has flown by. I am sure I won't have a chance to update this week at all so I wanted to get some pictures on tonight. This week as you all know is Mother's Day so of course Chris is very busy and it is also THE biggest tuxedo weekend of the year with all of the proms going on Friday & Saturday. So..... Maddi's birthday party will be postponed a bit, but that's OK. I promise I'll blog some more after that! Oh yeah - and Maddi is walking now - yay!!!!!

I can just barely fit through this door and it is so much fun!

Just making a few important phone calls
Does anyone wanna comb my hair?
