Okay - so Mays is now 18 months old and this would be the first time I have ever taken him to a studio to get his pictures done. Mother of the year. I was too cheap to buy the CD so these pictures are pictures I took with my digital camera of his pictures I purchased. I know - cheap, but I don't have a scanner either (something I definitely need to invest in). Anyway, thought I would share. My favorite is the one clear down at the bottom. Still haven't figured out how to move these pics around (if anyone has suggestions!) My mom thought he looked so happy but actually he was very grumpy. The only thing that made him smile is he had a baseball and every time he would throw it to me we would clap. He would clap with us and smile! Hence - his hands being together in each pic! Love the boy!
This is what 1 pm church does for our family. My boys are such nappers and Mays was not home long enough to get him out of his church clothes before he layed on the couch and sacked out. I was trying to have McGwire skip his nap (if not - he is up all night) so he was helping me in the kitchen cut strawberries. He layed his head on the bar and this is the result.
I loved the above pictures. The Madsen house must be boring. All the boys are playing either GameBoys or PSP and Macee is playing with Bub's phone. He is the best kid. Macee has a HUGE crush on Bub and instead of being a stink to her, he is totally awesome to her. He let's her play with his phone all the time. I think he is probably about sick of her changing his screen saver to her picture though!!!
I love Bub's expressions. I look at these pictures and it's makes me laugh. Eric told Carrie the other day that he would hate for Matthew to have to be the first butt he kicked for chasing his daughter. HEHE!!!
This is precious Murphy sleeping in his bouncer. Don't let it fool you. He doesn't really sleep in his bouncer. This was a fluke!
This is my favorite pic of Mays. This is the smile that makes me happy daily. This is the smile I have to remember every time I am cleaning dish detergent or shampoo off my floors!
That is all for now. Don't tell Eric (he will find out - he does read the blog) but him being home has really put a cramp in my blogging. I am not complaining, I would much rather have him around than keep up in the blogging world! We were planning on having the usual Birthday party for Mick at Eric's stadium but they were hosting the 4A or 5A State Tournament so we decided at the last minute to have the team come over after their games on Friday and just hang out. What an awesome group of boys. I really do love each of them. I kinda laughed because they are all so competitive that at times they fought like girls but they are such good boys. We are blessed to be a part of this team. Mick has made so many wonderful friends and so have we! Sorry - no pics. It was was too crazy!

Jessica- Do you mean you don't know how to move the pictures after you have uploaded them to your blog? All you have to do is grab the pic (there should be some little squares on the edges of the pic) keep the mouse clicked and drag your mouse to the left. An arrow and a small square should appear, then drag the picture to where you want it to go. I have found that if you go slow it will work, dragging fast messes it up! Good luck! Hope that is what you needed help with!
Your kids are SO cute!
Oh my gosh...I loved those pictures!! Mays looks SO handsome in all those photos. They did such a good job!! He's so cute though....How could they not?? :o) I love the picture of all the kids and Matthew playing video games. Classic. If they weren't all sports and outdoor lovers, I'd probably worry. :o) That's why I don't mind if Matthew and Mick played video games over here for HOURS. :o) As for Macee... She is such a darling girl. Matthew told us how you told all the boys at the party that when Matthew gets home from his mission...and he's dating Macee, that they'd all be jealous. :o) Matthew thinks she's so cute. I think he likes the attention she gives him...and I'm glad he treats her nicely!! He better!! :o) Thank you for having Bub over...and for doing that fun party, too. You're SO BRAVE. :o) Matthew had so much fun over there. I told you he said it only "felt like he was over there for ten minutes" because he had so much fun. We feel blessed, too, to be a part of the baseball team. I don't know what I'd do without all the fun parents. I love talking to you guys, hanging out, and yelling (ha ha) at all the games. SO MUCH FUN. I'm glad Eric is around now. He's awesome...and I know how happy it makes you to have him home. You guys are fantastic...and we love you. Thanks again for all you did last week. I'm glad Mick had a great birthday... He's a great kid!! BTW, one more thing...ha ha THANK YOU for telling me about the french toast at Magelby's. Jess and I loved it so much.... You know we ditched our other meals, once we tasted the kids' meals. YUM..... Next time we're getting exactly what you got, strawberries and all. Oh my gosh, I'm hungry right now. :o) As for your double chin comment on my blog.... You are SO hot, Jess. :o) Just be glad you don't have my SIX chins. I want your outfit you wore on Saturday, too. I'm jealous. LOVE YOU.
Cute pictures! Those pictures of Mays turned out so cute! All of your kids are darling! Matthew might have some competition from Carter when it comes to Macee!:) ha ha Thanks for having the "coolest" party with all of the boys! Blake had a blast and he loves hanging out with Mick and your kids! You have awesome kids! Oh, and sorry about the yelling at the last game! I don't know what came over me! I guess all of my kids competitiveness doesn't come from their dad! ha ha Love ya
You always seem to catch kids at their cutest! I love all the pics you post...makes me deal with this crappy pregnancy a little longer knowing that something cute "might" come out of it! I think there is going to be a LONG line of boys after Macee...Eric better get his foot strengthened up!!!
Heard you are the awesome blogger from Clint & Kristen. Your kids are so cute!You guys have a lot of fun things you do! Can't wait until baseball camp! Chris Boettcher & Cindy--
I love the photos. It always mekes me nervious when you take them in to get there photos because sometimes they can have a really bad day or a bad moment and then you end up with some real winners!!! But these are fantastic for being an off day. By the way great job dad on the kicking the boys but. I have decided all dads have a bit of a soft spot when it comes to there girls and when a boy invades they can defininty become tigers. I love it!!!
You seriously have some beautiful children! And he looks like such a happy little guy. I love reading your blog - it's so REAL! Thanks for keeping us in the loop.
Hey Jess, I have a scanner!
