The Ames Family Blog: September 2011
http://jbamesfamilyblog.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
The Ames Family Blog. Thursday, September 1, 2011. First day of Elementary school! This is just a quick post to show a few pictures of Maddie's first day of Kindergarten! She was SO excited for her first day! We don't have tons of money to spend on designer wardrobes (who does? But I wanted her to have something special. So we got her "Twinkle Toes." They're Sketcher shoes that light up in the toes and the sides when she walks. She LOVES them! I know I'm biased, but what a beautiful little girl we have :).

The Ames Family Blog. Tuesday, April 17, 2012. Maddie Lou is 6! Better late than never, I say! Miss Maddie turned 6 on April 3rd (during her first official spring break :). Two days prior she lost her first tooth. It was like an official "sayonara" to babydom. We had a swim party for her at a local sports club. Friends from church and school came. She had a GREAT time! Actually, all the kids did! Such special memories for all of us :). Maddie at 6 years old:. We notice that it takes her longer to go cros...

The Ames Family Blog: Santa
http://jbamesfamilyblog.blogspot.com/2011/12/santa.html
The Ames Family Blog. Wednesday, December 21, 2011. I just never know how Santa is going to go. Last year was completely awesome! Ben wasn't having any of it. Maddie was VERY eager to tell Santa all the things she wants. (In case you were wondering, she asked for Lion King stuff and Wii Games. Haha! Santa looked at her and said, "You've been thinking hard about this, haven't you? I love how utterly bored he looks. Silly boy! Posted by The Ames Family. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The Ames Family Blog: November 2011
http://jbamesfamilyblog.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
The Ames Family Blog. Wednesday, November 30, 2011. This year we had lots of firsts for Thanksgiving! It was the first year we had it in Kennewick. While it's not the first year I've hosted (we've had my parents to Seattle before), it was the first year we had BOTH sets of grandparents to dinner. And as an added bonus, Uncle Dan came too! It was the first time my dad ever participated in fun run: the Turkey Trot! Simba was QUITE intrigued by the bird. Can't say I blame him. It was amazing! Apparently, my...

http://jbamesfamilyblog.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
The Ames Family Blog. Monday, May 30, 2011. I believe most of you know that last fall we bought a boat. It's a 1998 Searay, which we got a smokin' deal on, but needed a new engine. .Enter: Joe! Man, I love a guy who can work with his hands! In March and April, we spent a few weekends in Spokane (where the boat was being stored). Joe, my dad (seriously could not get through life without him! And our friend Dave Webb, who is a mechanic, put a whole new engine in it! Daddy and Ben driving. She started paddl...

The Ames Family Blog: I love Kung Fu
http://jbamesfamilyblog.blogspot.com/2012/06/i-love-kung-fu.html
The Ames Family Blog. Tuesday, June 26, 2012. I love Kung Fu. Ok, maybe not Kung Fu. But the kids sure love Tae Kwon Do! The Dojo across the street from my gym (so like, 2 minutes away) was having a summer special that I couldn't pass up. We'd thought about getting the kids in martial arts before but I didn't want to fork over the start up costs if they hated it, and only one place takes kids this young. Luckily, all the pieces fell into place! And I am SO happy they did! And the mean face. Haha! Ben had...

The Ames Family Blog. Thursday, April 28, 2011. For those who don't see Maddie on a regular basis, it is impossible for me to describe her. When I say she is quirky, I'm not kidding. I, personally, have never met a kid as odd as her. She says the darndest things all the time! Darndest, as in weirdest, most off-the-wall, not relating to anything we're doing, does not make any sense except to her comments. Here are some examples:. Joe: Maddie why are you sticking your tongue out? Maddie just cracks me up!
