7 Months...

Little Maggie Moo Moo, hopping through the forest, scooping up the field mice, and bopping them on the head... Maggie loves when I sing this little ditty to her...original words were changed, of course.

Our girl has cut her bottom two teeth! She's scooting around on her belly...she will be crawling soon...sooner than the boys, I think! This girl does not want to miss out on anything. She still won't take a good nap for us...but she will take a 2-hour nap every day after lunch at Daycare. I'm open to explanations as to why, but my suspicion is that she's so totally exhausted from playing all morning that she just passes out at the first opportunity. She usually takes a little catnap on the way home in the afternoons too. Still Queen of the Catnap, that one...

Caught her mid-scoot

AND...her first word...officially, I guess...Da...as in DaDa...Daddy...Daddy's Little Girl...

Monthly stats are:

16 pounds
26" long
wearing a Size 3 diaper
wearing stome 6 month outfits...but still mainly in 3 month clothing
wearing Size 1 Keds b/c her feet finally outgrew the newborn shoes she's been wearing for months!

Summer 2017...

It wouldn't be the summer without a trip to the beach...whether it's a quick trip or a longer one, beach time is the best time! This year was no exception. It was Maggie's first trip to the beach and our first time being outnumbered at the beach as we usually have a much higher adult-to-kids ratio with MiMi, Mamaw, and usually Uncle Lee there too. But this summer, it was just our Party of Five. And we had so much fun! Several trips to the arcade, numerous rounds of putt-putt golf, walks on the beach, playing in the sand, building sandcastles, and going out to eat at 5:00 most evenings! The boys have always loved the beach, and luckily for her, their little sister did too!
