Madeleine has been keeping us very busy so we haven't had much time for picture updates.

Madeleine went in for her 18 month check up.  She was 23 1/2 lbs. and 33 1/2 inches tall.  She also got her last vaccinations for a few years. 

Madeleine and Daddy out on the driveway playing with chalk at Carlos and Kristina's combination baby shower and house warming party.  They have since given birth to Ryan James Chavez, pictures of whom can be found here.

Madeleine at Bonfante Gardens again.

This time we got pictures of her playing in the water at Bonfante Gardens.

Water is currently Madeleine's favorite thing.  She cannot stay away from it.

As you can see, cold or warm, she likes to get right up into it.

Sharing the water spout with Ciaran.

Madeleine and her friends at the San Francisco Zoo, watching the penguins.  No Penguins are visible in this picture.

Everything is a hat.

Madeleine at the jaguar display at Happy Hollow in San Jose.

Madeleine playing with the radio in Mommy's office.  If it has buttons, Madeleine wants to press them.

Madeleine moves on to demonstrate that she can open and close the CD-ROM drive on Mommy's computer.

More water for Madeleine.  We bought a small pool for our back yard.  It came with a cover that keeps the water nice and warm.

The pool is 8' in diameter, so Daddy can stretch out in it.

Madeleine at the Las Madres bubble day in the park with Katherine and her mother Angela.

Nancy and Madeleine together at Hidden Villa in Los Altos.

Madeleine and Daddy at Grandpa and Grandma MacWilliamson's anniversary party up in Palo Alto.  Daddy is wearing a suit! (However, it looks like he slept on his tie.)

Madeleine sitting still for a minute at the party.

And, finally, the end.
