We're into Madeleine's fifth month.  For the past few days she's been sleeping more consistently and longer, particularly at night (we're hoping that lasts).  Also: more smiles, laughing and general cuteness.  Here are the photos from month 4.

We're finally posting some photos from Madeleine's first Halloween.  She was able to show off her costume at my company's Halloween party, and she got some rousing applause as the first of the kids to display her costume.  We took these extra photos the next day.

When we returned from vacation a couple weeks ago, we discovered that—to our surprise—our bee keeper had taken the first harvest of honey.  He left us this three pound jar out of the total nine pounds he harvested.  He says that's a pretty modest amount, and that in the future it will be a lot more.

Wow... time flies.  Madeleine is already eleven days into her fourth month, and we've just gotten around to posting photos of her third month.

Madeleine turned two months old yesterday.  We've posted some new photos of her second month.
