New and exciting things

It has been a week full of exciting new things for Maggie. She loves her new booster seat, and now she can sit back, relax and enjoy all of the action when Daddy is cooking dinner in the kitchen.



Maggie has also learned that her feet are so much fun to grab. Sometimes she hangs onto them so hard that it seems like she's afraid if she lets go, they will fall off and be lost forever. And yesterday she finally got her right foot up to her mouth and popped it right in! She's also building up her arm strength, as you can see by her baby "push-ups".

Excerpts from Maggie's diary

Friday evening: sit and look cute on the couch


Saturday morning: have a post-breakfast chat with Daddy in the hammock


Saturday morning, continued: do some birdwatching


Saturday morning, part III: look cute again (man, it's hard work being a baby!)


Saturday evening: giggle hysterically while Momma makes funny sheep noises

Practice makes perfect

Maggie is getting quite strong these days, and we've been practicing sitting up, with the help of our Bumbo seat. Not only is she learning to be upright, she is starting to discover the world of toys, rattles, and mirrors. And she has also learned that her favorite thing to chew on is Momma's knuckles (no teeth yet, but she sure can clamp down!).

A conversation with Maggie

Will took this video several days ago, but I just now downloaded it off the camera and I thought I'd post it so others can enjoy this little conversation with Maggie. Some days she can be quite the chatterbox!

Another road trip

We've been getting harassed by several folks for not updating the blog lately, and we are sorry...we'll try to be better about it! :-) :-)

Spring is in full swing here and Maggie is enjoying the warmer weather. Unfortunately she has inherited her daddy's hot nature, so summer should be interesting! We took her on her first trip to north Georgia to visit Will's family last weekend. Maggie got to meet both sets of great-grandparents on Will's side, and she also got to help celebrate her cousin Gage's 3rd birthday as well as her aunt Katie's birthday. She met lots of new people, including family and friends, but it was a whirlwind "tour" and she was glad to get back home to quietly reflect on things.

Light reading...

Maggie is now three months old and is already very interested in the issues of the day. As you can see, she is surprised and disgusted by what she is reading. Meanwhile, Daddy likes the funny colors and shapes of "Fluffy Chick and Friends"...so fluffy!!!
