Maddie Has Bangs!

You know there are certain things you can count on when Grama and Grampa babysit. Our kids will get to play outside, they will get to read lots of books, eat yummy food, be LOVED, and just be spoiled in general.

Usually I can also count on a little extra from Grama Binki. One year when she babysat while I was at girl's camp, I came home to find my children were addicted to chocolate milk (an addiction that still holds strong to this day). Luckily my pediatrician wasn't worried and was actually excited to hear how much milk my kids drank - chocolate or not.

The latest - bangs for Maddie! John, Jacee and I went to a ballroom competition last weekend so Grama and Grampa had Jack and Maddie for 2 1/2 days. When we came home, much to our surprise, Maddie had the cutest little bangs you ever did see. It made her seem so grown up. And now she doesn't quite look like the little ragamuffin she usually does. I actually love them and think she looks so cute.

Thanks Grama - for all you do - the stuff we know you'll do and also the unexpected. Our kids sure do love you - and so do we!

Where has the toddler Maddie gone we left 4 1/2 months ago? This looks like such a grown up little girl! We love the bangs.
We're so glad Grama Binki and Grampa Brent are there to spoil their and our grandkids, and even help take such good care of our daughter when she was so sick with the flu while John was gone to that Nat'l Mtg.
And tell Jacee we love her photos of the wagon wheel and the house.
Love, Grama 'n Grampa Mission - Argentina

It's funny how bangs can change you so much. That is the first thing Aubrey noticed when we were sitting on your couch. She does look older, and like a little girl... not a baby. She is so beautiful. Even cuter in person.
