Crazy Kids

Madeleine and two of her cousins (actually second cousins) are each a year apart. Madeleine and Kendal were both born the end of July and Claire was born just this past June on my birthday. I thought it would be great to get a picture of all three of them together at Thanksgiving dinner this past Sunday. I should have know that would not be possible while dealing with two very independent toddlers. This is what I ended up with.

My uncle mentioned they are just like my cousins and I when we were that age. We were all pretty much a year a part too. Hopefully, they will be just as inseparable as we were growing up.

Kendall would not stand next to Madeleine for anything. She is not really asleep. I moved her next to Madeleine and she turned into a limp noodle and fell to the ground. She hates to have her picture taken.
Next, I thought about having them all lay down next to each other. Claire and Kendal cooperated but Madeleine threw a fit and took off as soon as I put her down next to Claire.
Oh well, I will try again at Christmas time. Maybe they will cooperate better.

Cha, Cha, CHA!

Grandma and Grandpa Faber just got back from Cabo San Lucas Mexico and brought some gifts up to Madeleine today. She was not sure what to think about the hat and did not move from the position in the second pic until we took the hat off.

Pigtail!

Halloween was the first time we ever put Madeleine's hair up in pigtails. She did not mind at all and even left them in all night. I think it made her look like a totally different girl.

Here is Madeleine sporting her "Pebbles" look. We are seriously considering having her be Pebbles for Halloween next year. Any takers to be Bam Bam?

Happy Halloween
