This slide is a little tribute to my baby that is turning 1 this week. I didn't get a digital until he was about 4 months old so I feel so bad that I don't have any cute "baby, baby" pictures of him. Ya know, you would think that after 3 or 4 these 1st birthdays get easier. I was really thinking that this one would be easy because we have one coming so soon. I CAN"T BELIEVE MY BABY IS 1. He has been such a joy. I honestly couldn't find a picture of him without a big grin on his face. I did find one at the zoo where I put him in a big eggshell and he wasn't happy with that! Anyway, he turns 1 on Saturday and we will party hard (or hardly party!). We love him. He makes every person in this household a happier person. When he wakes up in the morning he is just jumping up and down in his playpen. When he goes to bed at night he just hugs and hugs everyone! I can't tell you how happy of a baby he is. We have been so blessed. So here's to you Mays, hopefully you don't get those terrible 2's early! WE LOVE YOU!!!
Welcome to the Madsen Family Blog! Eric and I have been married for 12 wonderful years. We have 5 handsome little guys and 1 princess in our family. Eric is the head baseball coach at UVU. I am a full-time insurance agent for Banasky Insurance. I have the luxury of working out of my home where I also take on the roll of full-time mom, laundry woman and taxi chauffer! We feel absolutely blessed with a beautiful, healthy family.
I have grown to love blogging and finding friends and family out there to keep in touch with. I hope you enjoy our blog and please feel free to make comments.

Mick was named after the great Mickey Mantle. He loves baseball, basketball, baseball, football and baseball. He is the official bat-boy for the UV Wolverines and is an awesome example to his younger brothers and sister! We were definitely blessed with the "perfect" child... I can only pray that his brothers are as obedient and helpful as he is at this age. He is definitely one of my big sources of survival! He probably takes on too much as a 11 year old but he is the one that begged for 11 siblings!!! Ya... he watched Cheaper by the Dozen a few too many times!
Macee "Jo" (Joe DiMaggio) is "THE PRINCESS" of the Madsen home. She loves to dance, tumble and get her nails done (yes, pathetic for a 9 yr old). She is full of spunk and we are so lucky to have our "ONE PRINCESS." She is a huge help with her little brothers! She is an angel in our home. I love how kind hearted Macee is to EVERYONE!!! She is a peacemaker and friend to everyone... I also love that she LOVES to drop everything and go shop with her mom!!!
This is our Maddux (Greg Maddux). He has turned out to be a wonderful little man. I say that because he really struggled through the terrible 2's. He idolizes his older brother and also LOVES baseball. I love Maddie's gorgeous smile and his sparkling blue eyes!!!
McGwire (yes, Mark McGwire - pre-steroid mind you). Absolute personality. He is a spit-fire with enough personality for the entire world. He can make you laugh one second and make you curse the next. I love the way he will always want to be snuggled before he falls asleep. I think in order for him to go to sleep... he has to rub my face... We Loooooove GWIRE!
Mays (Willie Mays), is the toddler of the house. He entered the terrible twos when he started walking at one and we are PRAYING that he grows out of them. For those of you who know him you understand. He has been an absolute blessing in our home. Although he is giving us a run for our money now... he was a wonderful baby!!! I love watching him mimick everything his older brothers do (kinda). I love his natural curls on his head and his big happy blue eyes!
Murphy is the 6th and final Madsen. Although he was the product of a "vasectomy gone bad" we would not trade him for the world. We are soooooo blessed to have him in our home! He is named after the great Dale Murphy (a Utah boy). He turned 2 the end of March and looks like he is going to try harder every day to keep up with the older brothers! I love his little head of red... and his "thunder thighs!"

OMG! I can't believe he is turning 1!!! It is CRAZY how fast time is flying by! I have to say he does look better with a little hair though, but still a QT without!
He's so adorable! I remember when he was just a little guy! Hopefully his baldness is a sign that Locke will someday have hair.
Aww! Your kids are so cute... & they all look alike. It would be hilarious if #6 arrived with red hair or something totally different for shock value. (Yeah right- like that would ever happen.)
