Maggie is hitting a fun stage where she is really beginning to play with toys and people. She smiles when we play peek-a-boo, she will reach for toys when they are out of reach, and she still LOVES older kids. On the weekend, we like to babysit our friends' kids so Maggie will have a playmate. The other kids will play with her and get her to laugh so hard. She truly needs an older sibling, but cousins and friends will have to do. Her personality is beginning to develop more. Maggie is pretty tough; she rarely cries when she falls or other kids are rough with her. She needs to be involved with any social event around her (which makes nursing her a challenge-she won't nurse if there are other people around, the TV is on, I'm reading a book or talking on the phone). She is very laid back. She will smile, but I wouldn't say that she is a smiley baby. Ladies at the store will try to get her to smile, but all they get is a blank expression. Laughing comes when she is tired at night or with older kids. I feel so blessed to have such a good child that I thoroughly enjoy being with.

Maggie loves music and dancing. She will "play" the piano with us and calms down whenever I sing to her.
We do a lot of tummy time-though don't let this picture fool you-it is a battle most times.
Playing at the museum for the first time. She looks so old sitting on the car. Too bad she toppled over right after this photo.
Maggie loves watching herself is the mirror. Am I promoting vanity?
Playing with her boyfriend Aiden.
