On Saturday morning, we checked out and said farewell before splitting up into separate cars for our drive home. Here's to a brand new year - love you all lots! ;)

Me and Mer. Thanks for all the presents, lady! Look at Maddy gazing up at Meredith with total adoration. I love how she's squeezed herself in between us.

And then much later on, Lisa and Pauly came over for family night. I set up the timer on my camera and put it on top of the TV to take this FAMILY NIGHT PORTRAIT.

On Saturday, Meredith parents came down to hang out with Maddy.

See? It was so unbelievable. This photo looks totally staged with her little paw draped over my shoulder, but this was how she wanted to ride right from the get-go. It was about this time that we realized we'd gotten a weirdo.

As soon as we got her into the warmth of a cab, she stopped with all the strange mewling noises she was making and immediately settled down. We were trying to hold her on our laps, but she kept climbing up and wedging her self between our backs and the seat. It seemed like she really wanted to sit perched up on our shoulders.
