Miss Independent
She loves to rock in the big rocking chair in her room-none of the kid sized ones in the house!
Reading Pat the Bunny-the front cover is now missing and the pages are a little tattered...
So proud of her ability to walk now! She rarely crawls anymore at all :(
A new fun game-Will pulls Maggie in the lego wagon
Things didn't go so well when Will wanted a turn
I finally got them to forget about the wagon for awhile and go to the kitchen for a snack. When I looked down, Maggie was gone and this is where I found her.
I'm waaaiiiittttiiiiinnnngggg...
Finally, a compromise
At the Baby Blessing at our Church on Sunday morning. I don't know why, but she just sacked out right before it started and slept through the whole thing!
We had our first birthday celebration for Eric this past Saturday. His birthday isn't for a couple of weeks, but we had a great time-any excuse for cake! It was Jeffrey's (Tyler's dad's) birthday too. We also enjoyed a fabulous 2 hour dinner with friends that night with no children!
Maggie has become quite good at climbing out of her high chair and I just couldn't understand why because she LOVES to eat! I had this bumbo out to give to a friend and Maggie climbed in it and sat down next to the fridge with her mouth open. Now she loves to eat in that, and I guess it is because Will sits in a cooshie booster at the table and she likes to be a big kid like him!
I really needed to get some stuff done, so I buried the kids under a basket of toys and they actually stayed there for 20 minutes or so! It's amazing how quickly you can work without little hands tugging.
Time to rest after a hard day of playing!
The pictures really show how we've spent the last week. I didn't get any pics from a visit to Chuck E Cheese last week, but I think Maggie had even more fun than Will. She rode all the little kid rides, then walked around with the big kids looking for more to do. This last antibiotic really cleared up her ear infection quickly and she's been a different child this week. She babbles constantly and laughs all the time and ALWAYS wants to be down and running around. She does Patty Cake and waves and says bye bye, and loves to read her Pat the Bunny book. This is such a cute age!
This update seems heavy on Maggie and light on Will, but that's just because she's changing so much everyday. Will is still sweet as ever and keeps me laughing everyday! He's getting to be such a big boy and has really gone on a growth spurt this last month. I guess I'll have to go shopping...

What a fun week! Maggie really seems to be changing every day! It looks like they need some more toys:) I love the wagon story! Miss you!
I can't believe how much she Maggie can do! She'll probably be able to sing Happy Birthday to herself on her birthday! I like the wagon pic of Maggie pushing Will...well, not really pushing, but whatever. :)
I love seeing how well your kids play together! It looks very fun and busy in your house! They always look like they are having a good time with eachother...and that is so great!
You guys have been busy! Maggie and Will look like they have a great brother/sister relationship. I am glad you all are doing well.
I have a funny story for you. The other day Emma Cate was playing with her two babies, whose names have always been Baby. I guess last week she decided they needed real names. She started calling one of them Tori and one of them Maggie! We look at your blog and talk about Will and Maggie so I guess that is where she got it. Maybe next week we will work on getting them some clothes so we can take pictures with them!
Maggie has the biggest smile, I love it!!! It looks like they have a great time playing together and will have a great bond as they grow.
