i am lion, here me roar!

madelyn debuted her halloween costume for a play date today (she is the lion to the right of the pirate). this group is made up of kids whose parents were co-workers of matt when we were all pregnant. almost all of them were in utero at a christmas party (a few are second babies). this was by far the best picture i got! it was a little challenging to get all these little kiddos to hold still and look forward.

she did a really good job of roaring nice and loud when asked what a lion says. she also did a nice job of saying "woof" to her friend jack who was dressed as a dog. most of the kids made "woof" noises for jack (jack is on the left holding his little sister claire dressed as a peapod).

madelyn was pooped from all the fun and passed out shortly after we got on the interstate. i thought that she was so cute and took a picture at a red light.


after her nap we got the most wonderful gift from her friend lorelai! - small gloves! they were the smallest gloves i had ever seen and fit madelyn perfectly. she was so excited to have them on that she kept showing daddy and doing a happy dance. here is some of the excitement captured in this video. love.

SO glad the gloves fit and just may work for you, and Maddie, this winter. And if Maddie did the happy dance, she must be a fan :) I'm sure Lorelai will love that video. I love Maddie's costume and that picture is adorable.

Great costume.

I'm so impressed that Kellie and Lorelai found teeny gloves in FLORIDA! Great work!
