Is that Tom the Turkey?

I really didn't take any pictures on Thanksgiving so my Dad pulled out his stuffed turkey to snap some picts. with Madison. They look so serious in this picture!!

I wonder what she is thinking?

Poor Tom the Turkey!

Gobble Gobble!

Some family pictures we snapped today at Cracker Barrel for Wendy's Dad Dale's 70th birthday. Can you believe Mark has never eaten at a Cracker Barrel!

Madison was being a little uncooperative taking a picture with Grandpa and Grandma Kuhl.

On Friday Madison went "road tripping" for the first time with Grandpa Kuhl and Mom and Dad. Of course she was a pro!!

My futures so bright.......I gotta wear shades........

Chillen with her bear and enjoying the scenery.

We took down our Turkey Day decor and put up Christmas lights today when we got home. I wanted to take a picture with Madison and my lovely decor! She wasn't to happy about it!!

Happy Thanksgiving from the Keller's!!!

Viva Las Vegas

Vegas ended up being a great trip!!! I was in seminars most of the time and feel I didn't get to see or do much site seeing. I definitely want to go back. There is so much to see and do!!!

This is the whole group minus a few. This was the first night out. We started the night out in a limo. Needless to say that was the best part of the night!! Stretch limo rides are so much fun!

Some of the lights and hotels along the strip.

The hotel we stayed in. By the end of the trip we were all calling it the pink bird!

Jenna, me and Dominique.......fellow co workers.

This is the ceiling at the Bellagio Hotel were we watched the Cirque du Soleil "O" show. It really was the most amazing show I have ever seen. The show had a pool in the floor and it would disappear within seconds. There was lost of engineering, timing and personal strength involved in this show! The talent the acrobats had was amazing. You were not allowed to take pictures during the show, but I thought the ceiling was pretty cool.

Some scenery to and from the seminars.

Mark got to see and do a lot during the day. I should have given him the camera!!

Mark and I out to eat. The buffets were the best!

We also saw the Blue Man Group perform.

It was a very interesting show. Not sure I would pay to see it again though.

I was really disappointed in my lack of picture taking!! Oh well, I guess I will have to go back next year!! It was a great way to spend my birthday and our anniversary.

Next time we will just go for fun!! Even though I had a good time with my co workers!

Lots going on.

There is lots going on with the Keller house hold! Madison's one year pictures are up, and I'm so happy with the results!!!

And Mark and I leave for Vegas on Wednesday morning. My work is taking everyone and their spouses for a dental convention. Lucky Mark gets to do whatever he wants during the day and I get to listen about dentistry......or lucky me!!! We leave on our wedding anniversary and get back on my birthday. I hope to have some good pictures and stories, but sad to leave Madison for 4 days. I don't think Mark is going to survive!!

Till then.........Hello Vegas!!!

Trick or Treat.....a little late!

I forgot I hadn't posted any pictures of Madison from Halloween this year.

She was a good little trick or treater!!

The worst day ever!

On Monday Madison had her first year check up. By the way, she weighed in at 18 lbs 8 oz. 29 inches long. What a little peanut!! Any way, no one warns you how tragic it is going to be for the child, non the less on the parents. I would have to say it was one of the worst days ever. I don't want to scare anyone getting ready to take there child to there check up, but this was my experience! And I think Madison has a tendency to be a little dramatic. I can really tell she is becoming a toddler, but getting four shots and your finger pricked all within minutes is a little much for a 1 year old. Mark held her down while the nurse gave Madison her shots. Madison just whaled and looked at me with those tear filled eyes. Then Mark looked up at me and I just lost it. Madison was bawling, I was bawling , Mark was holding her down and the poor nurse looked so sorry. Then she got her blood tested for lead. She of course squirmed and there was blood every where, and you know me I do horrible with blood. I had to sit down with my hands over my ears to block out Madison cries. I really, really, don't want to experience that again for quit some time! The poor girl fell asleep on the way home and sniffled the whole time! Poor thing!

Madison at home before we got ready to leave. If she only knew what was about to hit her!

Waking up from her nap.

And oh yeah, that is a paci......it is a teething paci, but she never chews on it!! Notice she has another one in her hand for back up! It was a rough day!

Showing off her battle wounds.

1 hour after her nap.......we are feeling much better!!! And tearing off the band-aids.

It's like she had forgotten what had happened!! If only Mommy could block it out of her mind!!

Madison's 1st Birthday Party!

Madison's 1st birthday on Saturday was a success! It was a little stressful at times......o.k. the whole time.....but I think it was a great time had by all. Nobody tells you how much work having a party really is!! But I would do it all over again!!! Madison got more toys and clothes then she could have ever wished for! She finally dug into her cake. I think everyone enjoyed carving pumpkins and watching the home videos of her first. And the food was excellent as well compliments of my husband!
Cake time!

Madison getting some help from Daddy. She wasn't quit sure what to do at first!

But I think she got the hang of it!

Ummmm......good!
