Sibling comparison

I was just browsing pictures looking for similarities. Different eyes, different noses, but definitely related.

Jackson Thomas 14 weeks (approx 6lbs 8oz), October 2007

Madeline Ruth 1.5 weeks, (approx 6lbs, 8oz) October 2009

And he does love her! He was being very cute giving her kisses on the head as I posed them in their game-day shirts. The shirts aren't helping the Irish, but I got some cute pictures

You might be wondering, "how does Donna have time to watch the ND game, make props out of the kids, and post a blog on moving day?" Well, our closing and move have been delayed until next week due to a paperwork issue out of our control. It was very frustrating to accept, but we are over it, and very lucky to be able to stay with my mom and dad for the next few days. Unfortunately, everything we own is being held hostage at $200 per day with the moving company, which is not only frustrating, but expensive. Our target move-in date is now Wednesday.

Hi Jack and Maddie,
Thank you for your cooperation in getting a heartwarming set of pics. YOu are both so very beautiful together.
Jack I am so proud of you. You are a fantastic big brother and you bring your mom and dad so much joy. And you made my day!!!!!!!!

My heart aches for the distress the delay in moving has caused-- BUT-------
Uncle Ezra says your new home is worth waiting for. YOu aand Maddie keep your parents smiling- and by next week you will all be celebrating a new adventure.

Also 2 weeks from now I will be in Chicago to see you. The time will fly by and I am so very excited.

Sorry to hear about the latest "glitch". How frustrating!
Grammie is very lucky that she gets to spend time with the two newest Notre Dame fans - who, by the way, look adorable in their shirts!
Conversely, Jack and Maddie are very lucky that they have such loving grandparents.
Hope you have a wonderful visit together!
