"Happy Birthday"







That was what Madi said when she first came in and saw the tree with lights and the snowmen and other decorations. That was the only obvious explanation she could come up with to explain the transformation of the living room. We explained to her that it was a "Christmas tree" and that it was "Merry Christmas", she was VERY interested in touching the lights and wanted to know what each and every decoration was. I was hoping to get a picture of Hailey and Madi in front of the tree, however she was not interested in my idea. Hailey tried holding her and wrestling her to stay in front of the tree and in the end just read her a book. That worked as long as you didnt want her smiling at the camera. Tomorrow is "family picture day", wish us luck :)

Adorable, adorable, adorable!! Your tree is beautiful, I love all the snowmen, and it's so cute that Madi thought it was Happy Birthday! :)
The pictures are great, even if she wasn't into posing!
Yes, good luck tomorrow! She may have to be on Jake's shoulders! And remember, bribery is a perfectly acceptable way to get a picture!
