My youngest, Eryn, was spinning in circles with Madelyn who absolutely loved it.  When Madelyn tried to walk, she was so unsteady, we all laughed at her clumsiness.  Madelyn was even laughing at herself and kept going back for more.
Every time I pointed my camera at David, he would smile and let me take his picture.  Such a sweetie!  Madelyn is the mischevious one.  If I wasn't ready to snap, she'd smile at me all day, but point that camera at her and she'd try to duck her smile sideways.  I had to be quick!
Here's mom.  She will yell at me later for putting her picture online!  :) 
Jan is one of my most treasured friends, so when she had these two wonderful children, I loved them as well.  The great thing about a good friend is that you don't have to plan anything, you can go to their house and just "hang out".  Sunday, me and my girls, did exactly that.  We all sat out in the yard, in the warm sunshine and watched Madelyn and David play.  I had my camera, as always, and just enjoyed taking pictures of them as they ran around the yard.  No special clothes or props, no posing....no worries.  As always, they were adorable.  Jan and Trent are great parents and the love they give these two is reflected in their peronalities.

It's hard to believe that I took pictures of Madelyn with her daddy's wedding ring as her first braclet!  They were both so small and perfect.  It is so much fun to watch them grow up.  I can't imagine the time and patience that Jan & Trent must have to do such a wonderful job with TWO nineteen month olds, but I certainly admire them!
