Maddy's parents make it Legal:)

So the big day finally came on the 1st and Bri and i got hitched:) It was a gorgeous ceremony from what i remember, which is very little, and what people have told me. The reception was a blast and the DJ didn't quit till 3am. The entire wedding and reception went off very smoothly and thanks to my AWESOME sister everything looked perfect. Megan basically was my wedding planner and she did an incredible job. FYI to those that may be getting married, hire my sister and you will have no problems and everything will look great! Maddy was fantastic during the ceremony and she stayed at the reception for a little while before going home to the babysitter.

Married life is awesome and we are all adjusting very well. As for a Maddy update she has gotten her first tooth. She is getting bigger everyday and looks so adorable in her new fall wardrobe:)

Sorry no updates lately:(

First off i want to apologize to all you loyal bloggers for no recent updates on our little Maddy. I have been dealing with work and her and moving and planning a wedding. Crazy times. I promise after the 1st i will update with some pictures. I have also lost my cord to transmit pictures from camera onto the computer so hopefully i will find that.


Madeline did have her 4 month checkup this week. She weighed in at 16 pounds and 26 inches long. This puts her in the 95% for weight, 90% for height and she is still in the 25% for her head size. The doctor said she was perfect and that they love fat babies:):)

No new pictures of Maddy but I do have some from the kickball tourn. Brian and i competed in over the past weekend. It was a riot. Our friend Ryan Woodke organized a kickball tourn in his home town of Port Hope, Michigan during their annual ABC days. Everyone thought we would come into it and kick everyone's butts but we ended up in third place. There were some youngins that were just a little too vivacious for us. All in All it was a great weekend though. Even though this is Maddy's blog enjoy some fun photos of Bri and I and i will get some of Maddy uploaded next week hopefully.

This was our team COBRA KAI, yes we love the Karate Kid movies:) We are children of the 80's


For some reason we thought it would be funny to use the pool chalk to paint our noses, don't ask:)


The girls on the team were mighty tough!!


Next Year at the 2nd annual Port Hope Kickball Tourn. (The Ryan Woodke Classic) Cobra Kai will be sure to represent:)

Cabin Week in Wisconsin!

Madeline went on her very first camping trip this last weekend. She slept in a tent and was outside and watched mommy and daddy and her other family members play horseshoes and kickball and she went swimming in a lake and had a fantastic time. Brian's dad's brothers and sisters were all there with their families and the whole yard was full of tents a pop-up camper and a giant 5th wheel. It was quite a drive there, almost 5 hours from Marquette, so by the time we got home on Sunday night she was pretty well spent. Yesterday was an adjustment getting back into her routine but since she is so easy going wasn't as bad as it could've been. This weekend is the big move to Berkley but luckily Nana Linda will be there to help out with Maddy and keep her entertained while everyone else is busy. Here are some pictures though from the Cabin. One of these days i am going to upload a video of Madeline. She has taken to trying to talk and she is loud, what a surprise huh, just like her mom:) and she loves to smile and suck on her hands. Every day she is growing and growing and every minute is so precious to me, and Brian as well i am sure:)
