Madeleine seems to always like airplanes. Plus, she looks so tall her (at 21 months).

Linked unceremoniously here:

This spring and early summer a lot of our life was taken up with a big kitchen remodel. Josh's photos of the process may be found here:

Our other extranormal exciting thing was a trip to Norway. I was presenting at a conference in Trondheim, so Josh and i managed to finagle a week which gave us some extra time to get away together and see a new place. Josh's photos are here:

while mine are here:

I must admit to needing more commentary on my own photos, which i do so hope to get to.

The girl got a new wading pool at some point this summer. It mostly lives at her friend's house, but, they have been enjoying it a lot. It also probably saved many days during the hottest part of the summer.
Read Josh's commentary on flickr.

We went to Norway in May, sans girl and dog, sadly. However, there are pictures up on flickr if you'd like to see them.

We took Madeleine to a concert the other day. She did great. She clapped, she cheered, she danced, she stole all of our friends' cheese. I feel lucky that we can do this sort of thing with her.
