OH Maggie



this girl...oh man

she is sweeter than sweet and such a GIRL

she yells "OWEN, RUB-BUB!" (her new way of saying Griffin) all day

she books it on her little trike and even rides around the block on it when we go for walks

she has just started putting two words together and can say any word we ask her to

it's pretty hilarious!

yesterday was the first time she put two words together and she said GOOD GIRL after I said it to her, I about died

she still LOVES watching Umi Zoomi and can practically count because of it haha

she often says "oooone, twoooo, threeeeeee, sixxxxx, ninnnne" when she is going up steps or "counting things"

thanks team Umi Zoomi!

she seriously kills me every single day

girls are a different type of cute, that's for sure

she is obsessed with "Ohrek" (yogurt) and eats it several times a day, she begs for it and I give it to her (oops)

too bad it's special yogurt (because of her allergies) and costs a dang fortune

her allergies probably need to be re-tested soon

she no longer gets hives when she eats egg or dairy

I was told to try dairy again 6 months after her initial test and we tried it and NO hives!

I thought, yay, she has outgrown her allergies!! (they were very mild when she was tested)

BUT if she eats dairy it aggravates her skin, caca

so she has a little here and there but I really try to stay away

hoping to re-test soon to clear my mind a little

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

still obsessed with this hair....





ketchup

found out that Nolan's "periorbital cellulitis" is actually "blepharitis"


Maggie finally got her first mani by Aunt Nicole


Magz discovered her Mema's vintage little tykes babies and decided to feed one of them


this kid kicks everyone's trash at Mario Kart, it's almost ridiculous


Griff got to go to Nascar with Daddy, Nicole and Maddy


Maggie insists on putting her own pants on, and she does it every time


Kason and Nolan had a little dirt bike wreck, it was Nolan's fault


the kids getting reemed by Kason for being turkeys one day


Maggie discovering the neighbors porch swing and wind chimes, we pretty much end up over there at least once a day


obsessed with crocs, just like her brother's!

little getaway

my little sister is getting married in August

during one of my my Mom's trips here to visit, we took a weekend and went up north to help my sister

Kason agreed to watch the kids and off we went!

we rented a car and headed up

our weekend consisted of:


watching my pretty sissy try on some amazing dresses


narrowing down her wedding locations


sushi, of course


getting treats at the CUTEST bakery downtown


finally watching the Justin Bieber movie and becoming even more of a Belieber (I LOVE him ahhhhh)

watched the Katy Perry Movie as well. LOVED.

it was a fun, successful, relaxing weekend!

she's HOME!

Maddy is back!

we welcomed Aunt Maddy back from her mission about 2 weeks ago

she lived in North Carolina for 18 months and we sure missed her!

glad she's back!


Nolan went right up to her and loved on her like crazy

Maggie was perfectly content with her even though she doesn't "know" her, she was a bitty baby when Maddy left

And Griff in his usual style, wanted nothing to do with her

he warmed up after a few day's though, typical Griff!

bedhead

this chick wakes up with crazy hair!

it will stay crazy until I wet it and put a little concoction in it to make it cute and curly

she has wild, wild hair!

sometimes I never get to her hair and it stays wild all day, poor girl



she let me pull it up the other day....for about 3.4 seconds

cutest neighbors

finally we have some neighbors WITH KIDS!!

It has made all the difference for my kids

we play outside with these little friends every single day

three of the kids live right next door

sandbox

were getting closer and closer to having our backyard done

it's been a long time coming

we have a pretty good plan and some money saved especially for our yard

hoping to have something going on out there soon!

but in the meantime we have enjoyed riding the 4 wheeler and motorcycle around the yard (because it's all dirt and hills)

and we have very much enjoyed our sandbox
