HAPPY 8th BIRTHDAY, MADDY!!!!

Wednesday (tommorrow) or perhaps today...depends when i get this posted...Maddysen turns EIGHT!!! where oh where has the time gone...

tonite...while mommy and daddy were at work...Maddy, auntie Kaleigh and I went out to a local park and did a birthday photo shoot...Maddy got to put on her new dress...that she will wear...for her birthday...and brought her doll, Meggin along too!

Auntie Kaleigh french braided both of their hair...just for the occasion...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BABY!!! WE LOVE YOU!!!

Tuesday...and we had a visitor...

thinking he is quite the little showbug...he went from resting on maxx's green golf club to doing a jig on the patio table...

"COME QUICK, NONNIE!!! COME QUICK!!! BRING THE CAMERA!!!"







Then after spending a little time with him...(or it is her?) we had to go in to google leaf bug...

Miss Maddy has been doing a count down...each day...she will come up for a snuggle and say..."nonnie, only ___ (insert appropriate number) more days!!! Her birthday is on the 19th...and of course I will insert some frivolous doing that has nothing to do with her birthday...like "oh yes...it's ___ (insert appropriate day count) until national sweep the sidewalk day! ETC...to which she throws up her arms..."NONNIE!!!!"

I can't believe she will already be EIGHT!!!! I feel soooo OLD...LOL...

Job going okay...i'm learning so much...just got to get used to the long day...

Well I'm heading down to the basement this morning...the road crew pounding on the pavement for the new street knocked down a big stack of boxes..and thus far i found that one of my FAVORITE cups...was smashed on the floor...
