It warms my heart to see these two play together. Zachary is so gentle and loving towards his best buddy Ryleigh! They have a very special bond! We started watching her when she was just 3 months old. Now she is 18 months and to her no one is cooler than "Zaaaa" or "Buuuud-eeeee"
Zachary has taught her the love of trucks and fire engines. He even shares his stuffed animals with her! I look at this relationship and I see the future of him and Brynley!! He is a very special little boy and I love him to pieces!
Ryleigh was a little grumpy this morning, so I set her on the couch with Zach. I went to do some laundry and this is what I found! It was too cute pass, so I had to take a picture!!*******
Thanksgiving weekend we surprised the kids with a trip to the movies. We never pay full price to see a new release! We usually wait until it comes to the cheap theater, where it's only $2 not $7.25 per person. A few weeks ago Madison saw a trailer for the new Disney movie, "Tangled!" And asked me everyday for 2 weeks when Nov. 24th was (release date) and if we could go and see it! I told her it was really expensive and I would have to ask daddy.
So we bit the bullet and bought tickets a few days ahead, and took them on "black Friday!" (I was very tired, seeing as I had been up since 2am and had only taken a short nap!) They were very excited, and since then they have been reciting parts of the movie, over and over!
I took these pictures while we were waiting for the flick to start! The flash was a little bright! Don't you just love Madison's new winter hat?!?!

Baby News!
I had my 33 week appointment yesterday. It was a pretty normal visit except that I didn't gain anything, not even an ounce in the past two weeks!!! Both the nurse and Dr. R asked me if I had eaten over the holiday weekend and was shocked that I didn't gain anything! I assured him that I did!
Her heart rate was normal, and she is now head down and ready!! However she is measuring 34 weeks! So now I have one less week to prepare! I just have to make it through Christmas!! She is now about 5lbs and 17 3/4 inches long! Only about 2.5 lbs to go and a few more inches and Brynley (no middle name yet) McDowell will grace us with her presence!

We are pretty excited for Brynley to come too, great news! Zach and Madison will be such wonderful siblings to her, really fun. LOVE the hat!! LOVE IT!!
I can't wait to see Tangled, the previews are darling and so funny.
We went that day and saw the movie too! Ashlyn and I went with my Aunt, Uncle, cousin and her son. We RARELY see a movie in the theater for the same reason...Toy Story 3 was the 1st time since the Cars movie came out...what can I say, I'm a cheapie. :)
As far as Black Friday...did ya know you can get the same deals online and they ship for free with minumum purchase? This year they started at midnight Wed night/Thurs morning. I didn't realize it until I was looking something up Thanksgiving evening. I got EVERYTHING I was going to get at the Black Friday sales without the hassel...and the stuff I got at Khol's was cheaper because I found and 20% off online coupon. However, Rick made fun of me because I still got up at 1:30 to hit the stores with my Aunt and counsin, since they were already asleep when I realized you could get it all online.
