 Maddie comes home

Getting dressed for the big 1/2 mile trek home. Maddie gives getting dressed a big thumbs down. 

But doesn't she look so sweet? everyone that meets her says they can't believe all her dark hair! even at the pediatrician's office.. and they've seen lots of babies!

all loaded up in her car seat and ready to go

home at last with her big brother

meeting good old Murph

cuddling with her mama

Finn wanted to hold baby Maddie, and took his job very seriously!

Maddie meets some friends..

Some friends came by to meet little Madeline. She was a good host (she mostly slept!).
