January

It has been a busy month for us! A trip to the circus, birthday parties, several sick days (colds, stomach flu, mastitis, and thrush), Maggie pulling up everywhere, and a Robert Earl Keen concert date night to name a few. I'm sure February will be even busier and hopefully not as sickly!

So Much Fun

Each day is so much fun with our two little ones in the house. Everyday one of them does something new, says something funny, learns something exciting, or teaches us something we didn't know. Sure, some days are stressful, but boy are those days worth it!

Christmas in January

Merry Christmas to everyone (in January almost February)! Ha! I am so behind in posting anything on this blog. Seems like every night I say I'm going to post something and I am either too wiped out or I'm just not in the mood. Anyways, we had a wonderful Christmas! We celebrated in San Antonio with grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins.

Gettin Around

It's official!!! Our baby girl is crawling! Wow, it all happened SO fast. She has been rocking back and forth and scooting around for quite some time, but about a week ago she really started crawling forward. She's really getting around now, and is so proud of herself!

November

Wow! November was a busy month for us. We visited grandparents in San Antonio twice, took Greyson to watch Walking with Dinosaurs, started Maggie on solid food, celebrated Thanksgiving twice (once in Austin and the other in San Antonio), moved Greyson into his "big boy" bed, and much more.

Walking with dinosaurs was awesome!!!! Greyson LOVED it! He talked the whole entire show about how cool the dinosaurs were. We couldn't get him to stop!!!!


Checking out Daddy's cool vintage Lionel trains. One of Grey's favorite things to do!!!

6 Months

I wrote this about 3 weeks ago, but haven't been keeping up lately...since this is sort of a scrapbook for me, I'm posting now:

Maggie is 6 months now (11/15/09)! I know that every parent says time flies, but it really is true! It seems like yesterday that we brought our sweet baby girl home from the hospital. Maggie is a wonderful baby. She is very laid back much like her brother (or I should say WAS right now--after all he is 2). She sleeps well and is starting to move around much more on the floor. She scoots backwards and then gets frustrated cause she wants something in front of her. She has been getting on all fours and rocking a bit, so she will probably be everywhere very soon. For such a tiny thing she sure is strong! Her 6 month stats are as follows:

Weight: 13 lbs 10th%

Height: 24.5 inches 25th%

Head: 25th%

I must say after they weighed her I was a bit concerned at how little she is, but the doctor who is generally pretty conservative when it comes to these things, wasn't the slightest bit concerned. She said Maggie is just petite and is likely just "coming into her own".

Sleeping Beauty

My sweet baby girl has been sleeping through the night for over 3 weeks!!!!! Woohoo Maggie!!! It's hard to believe you will be 6 months old in a few days!!! Where is the time going?


On Mommy's old baby blanket

This is how I found her the other morning when I went to go wake her. Gotta love it!
