Photos part II: Madelyn

5 1/2 years old
10/21/10

After I took a bunch of pictures of Luke on Sunday, I decided to take some of Madelyn, too. We changed her outfit and she was excited, but Little Miss High Strung soon had a "moment" that needed to be addressed.

Sigh...

(pouting)

I think she kept getting madder because I was taking pictures of her tantrum. It was pretty funny. I am such a mean mom! Haha

She calmed down when I let her have a turn with the camera. "Do an arabesque," she said. Don't I look fabulous.

Mushrooms!

Back to normal...

She did a couple of poses

But she always looks much more natural when she's in motion

She got this little one during a kindergarten field trip to the pumpkin patch last week and painted it with watercolors. She has great artistic style.

I love my spunky little girl!!

Here's another gem:
Quote of the Day
by Madelyn

(after finishing a call with her friend on my cell phone and her friend hung up)
"She uncalled me."

I have one more batch of pictures, so bear with me. You know this comes over me every few months. You're used to it by now, aren't you??

Soooo cute! I love the 13th one up...you are so talented! (I think I tell you that every time.) They are so lucky to have such a great photographer for a mom! Madelyn has such a cute spunky personality, and she throws adorable temper tantrums! Hahah!
