She comes on about 5:57 into the video. http://thinkmuch.com/blog/archives/2009/02/03/jess-noah-on-tv/ Still pregnant and one day past the due date. Aren't the second kids supposed to come early? http://thinkmuch.com/blog/archives/2008/11/18/status/ Yes, I am still pregnant. Not officially due until the 17th, which I suppose is OK since James still hasn't come to the realization that Noah is a much better name than Max. He is stubborn... I am not. http://thinkmuch.com/blog/archives/2008/11/14/me/ I forgot to write a follow-up piece about what Maddie finally decided to be for Halloween! James and I took her to the store so she could look at the costumes in person. Out of all the princess costumes, pirate costumes, ladybugs, bees, fairies, cartoon characters, etc., she decided that ... http://thinkmuch.com/blog/archives/2008/11/14/maddies-costume/ This post was also placed on Facebook where it garnered some commentary.

When we left off, she wanted to be a character band-aid. Since then, she told me she wants to be a pirate again. Then she decided she wants to be a hotdog complete with ketchup, ... http://thinkmuch.com/blog/archives/2008/09/02/costume-of-the-week-9108/ Well, that day has finally come. Today was Madeline's first day of preschool! Yes, she is a now all grown up. (Insert sounds of mommy sobbing). Today was her first day of preschool! She was pretty well prepared since we have been talking about it for months. Daddy and mommy even ... http://thinkmuch.com/blog/archives/2008/08/28/another-first/ James has had way too much influence on Madeline. The other day Maddie wanted me to tie one of her blankets on like a cape. She was pretending to be Darth Vader. Yes, Darth Vader. She came up with that all on her own. She has never seen the movie. ... http://thinkmuch.com/blog/archives/2008/08/17/crazy-kid/ Maddie has been talking about Halloween costumes since April. She is a girl after my own heart and can't wait for fall time to decorate and to help put the tree up for Christmas. The funny part is the frequent changes in what she actually wants to be for Halloween. ... http://thinkmuch.com/blog/archives/2008/08/17/155/
