Mad Gracie Photo Blog

   I’m a little late getting this one up but better late than never !! My fellow Aegis photographer Nicole Munchel shot these fun pics last week when grandma called out sick…it was take your munchkin to work day !! Madeleine was good and was a welcome distraction to the newsroom. She made a great little subject for some photos as you can see. The munchkin turned ten months old in January. She’s crawling like a flash and walking is coming slowly but surely as she pulls herself up on everything. Talking is coming along well too, cat, pop, wow, ba ba or bob for her bottle and many more. When she starts laughing…it’s the greatest thing !! hope to have some video soon ?   Teeth are coming in like crazy and she’s starting to eat real people food, chopped into tiny pieces but real people food none the less. It is amazing to see the personality start to show a bit more day by day…she’s going to be a handful but she certainly is a good baby !!!

  Well we took her to see Santa, got through the photo with no crying, did a little shopping and finally the day came. December 25th, Christmas day but not just another Christmas, this was Madeleine’s FIRST Christmas. We started and Poppy and Nonnie’s for gifts; a nice princess chair, a talking purse (very cute) and some other fun…then back to the living room to play with the new toy lawn mower and other stuff from Santa and friends. A little later we through on Maddie’s Christmas dress and it was off to Grammy and Gramp’s for even more loot. A nice wooden rocking chair and teddy bear and some other fun toys. She had as much fun crawling around collecting the bows on presents as she did tearing the paper. Though I’m sure she really didn’t know exactly what was going on I know she had fun and that’s what is important. Next year will be an entirely different experience I feel…can’t wait !!!
