Austin, Texas

Maggie and Mommy took a weekend trip to Austin to see Mommy's friend, Bee and her boys Holden and Waker. Maggie had a great time playing with the boys!

"Home Depot Girl"

Maggie went to a construction themed birthday party for her little friend, Alec today. She came home with a Home Depot apron and a hard hat. She called herself a "Home Depot Girl". She was drawing a picture of her and Donnie. If you look close you can see the picture... it's the first picture of a person that really looks like a person! I thought she had help from Daddy but then found out she did it by herself.

New Kids on the Block... next generation

Maggie found an old (although still in the original box) Donnie Wahlberg doll that was Mommy's. Mom decided it would be more fun to watch Maggie play with the doll then keep it in the box. He's been Maggie's sidekick (although she keeps forgetting his name) ever since!!

First Visit from the Tooth Fairy

After loosing her first tooth, we told Maggie about the Tooth Fairy. The next morning, she was not interested in looking under her pillow, but when we got home in the afternoon she was. Then she was excited about getting money. Although, she decided that the best thing to do with her money was to give 1 bill to Daddy and 1 bill to Mommy.

A Real Halloween Scare

On our way out the door to go to a pre-Trick or Treating party, Maggie took a fall down the three concrete steps in front of our house. Immediately there was a lot of blood (you can see it even got her Jesse costume). Once we realized that the bleeding was stopping we started to feel better but then noticed that her front tooth looked like it might be cracked. The next day we took her to a pediatric dentist (who was amazing and Maggie loved!)... three days later, Maggie had to be sedated to better examine her tooth. It was not able to be saved, so we came home with one less tooth. Maggie will have her first visit from the Tooth Fairy this year! We are so thankful that it was just a tooth, that she's already in less pain and that she still has a beautiful smile.

Boo at the Zoo

This year it was nice and warm when we went to Boo at the Zoo. Maggie enjoyed looking at all of the other costumes more than she wanted the candy :)

Reading a Book

Maggie has been trying to read "Yummy Yucky" all by herself lately. She is using the pictures and what she remembers us reading, to read most of the pages. She loves reading with us!
