Mothers' Day 2009

Here is our family at church on Mothers' Day morning...it was our first time going to church as a family of five.

In this first photo, we are all happy, except perhaps poor Kate. We did not realize she was slumped until after the picture was taken. I am pleased that Jack and Maddie look happy, at least!Okay, well, now Kate is positioned more nicely...and Jack looks completely irritated that we are still sitting still for a picture. Can't win 'em all...
By the way, I am completely THRILLED that Joe and Jack match. And no. I did not plan it. I dressed Jack and Joe realized that he, too, had a navy polo and khakis that he could wear. I think I've grown on him over the years...

After church, we went home and Grandma Donna came for a visit to meet Kate...and spoil Maddie and Jack.
Yes, Maddie is "loving" Jack in this picture...and he is loving it, too...a bit disturbing, I think.
