Easter 2010

These are the Girl's Easter Pictures this year. It is getting harder and harder to get them all to look at the camera and smile a real smile. So these are the best we got.
And this is all the cousins. Not an easy task to get this one taken. We had a few good laughs and a couple moments of frustration, but in the end it worked out pretty well.

Brylee's Photo's

Brylee's 1st Birthday

We had a great party for Brylee's first Birthday. She had a bunch of family and friends come to wish her a Happy Birthday. I think she enjoyed every minute of it especially eating her cake. And the bath in the sink that followed the cake eating.

Sleep-over at Grandmas

Nothing better than powder donuts for breakfast.
She really enjoyed them.

And a trip or two in the hot tub. The other girls got in so quick I didn't manage to get their picture. But here is Brylee in Maycee's old swim suit. We don't have a teeny one at grandmas yet.

This is Maycee's after tub hair. I thought the curl on her forehead was hilarious.

Silly Girls

Here are a few of our silly girls. Maycee playing dress up and wearing her new headband.
Kimberlena nd Maycee being mommies.

Brylee decided she was tired on Valentines and just didn't want to wake up.

Here she is in her favorite position.

Basement

We started on our basement last weekend and this is our first wall that has been framed. Eric and his Dad have been working there butts off the last two weekends and this proves it.
The far room was hard to get a picture of but it is in the front corner of the basement and is all done. This is tentatively going to be Maycee's room. One day she doesn't want to move down there and the next she is mad we won't bring her bed down, so we'll see.

Eric in the hallway. Behind him is the cold storage. To the left is a big storage closet and to the right is Kimberlen's room.

This is Kimberlen's room and walk-in closet.

Now I can tell I didn't get great pictures. I will get better ones when the sheet rock is up. As for now all we have left is a little wiring and the heating ducts. Then we can insulate and put up the sheetrock.

Latest and Greatest

I am still making these and have to show off this one. I made this for Desiree's sister-in-law. I just loved the fabric for summer and the flower bows turned out great!

A LOT!!!

I am way behind on Blogging so this is going to be long. We have been doing a lot since the first of the year and here are a few things in chronological order from most recent.

Brylee's 10 Month Photos

I couldn't resist this one that was an inbetween shot. I just love her face.

Brylee definitely enjoys her food and cookies. Here she is eating a biter cookie.

And loving it!

My new look. I have super short hair and trying not to laugh! Thanks Des I am loving it.

Trying to take a picture that you actually like of yourself is a lot harder to do than I thought. But here is a little straighter drier look than the first one.

Just one of our very nutritious lunches at the Madsen home. Just a little bit of everything.

Brylee's new way to help vacuum.

Maycee using the vacuum extension as her microphone as she sings "Twinkle Star".

Ever wondered what Maycee might look like with hair? Here she is wearing some fake Hanna Montana hair of Kimberlens.

They all love their Ice Cream. No more eating alone, Eric gets to share with them all.

This is one of Byrlee's favorite things to do with her Dad when he gets home from work.

Christmas

Christmas this year was so fun. Brylee being on the move tried to open presents everyday. Luckily she only ripped a few before we drug her away from the tree. We finally had to barricade the tree from her.
This was Christmas Eve and so we had moved everything out of the living room to make room for Santa. Whom by the way was barely able to come to our house this year due to the Girl's behavior.

I did not get pictures on Christmas morning but we have a great video of the opening of Presents. Maycee was the funnest to watch this year. She would squill every time she opened a gift and say that it was exactly what she wanted.

This is Christmas night at my parents house. Brylee was playing with Ayson's gift we got him. I think she remembered playing it at our house before we wrapped it.

These are all the cousins in their new jammies that grandma bought. Ayson, Kimberlen, Daisee, Maycee, Brylee and Hudson.

My girls. Typical picture for them, Maycee pulling a face and everyone else looking away.

Ayson, who by the way is a month YOUNGER than Brylee. He is a big boy. This is my cousin Char'lee's baby.

And baby Daisee. The newest member of the family. Hudson is MIA which is generally the case when we want him to sit still for any length of time or hold his sister.

Last but not least the big girls in our new jammies. Minus Desiree' who had to take the baby home before we took this picture. Dustie, Kris, Char'lee, Robin, Jodie and Me.
