Melissa Hays said I should take more pictures of my baby.

On facebook I named this album the same thing. The other night while at work. Melissa was looking at my pictures and said that I should really take more pictures of Maggie. I know she was just playing with me, so I decided to use that for a title since there really isn't a reason why I took these pictures other than I just love my Magdalena and taking pictures of her. :)

These first ones were taken after she woke up this morning.

I love black and white pics

and LOVE that face

After her bath...

In our front yard... one of the "I'm not looking at you" times.

Angie, Jael and Emalea came to visit

Last tuesday it was finally cool enough for Maggie to be able to wear this outfit. Well at least it was not over 100!!!
Happy girl!

Hanging out in the Bumbo

She loves her feet. They are often the best toy she could have. I just love this picture!

Love those feet!

Again enjoying her exersaucer. She works/thinks so hard while she is in this toy.

We went to Dions with Sandy, Angie, Jael and Emalea. Maggie watches us when we eat or drink anything so Daddy decided to see what she would do with a straw. Not much this time, but she will learn someday. BTW it's just water in the cup. She doesn't get soda until she is 2 years old, and maybe not even then. We'll see. Mommy is back to no sodas again :)

She was watching every bite Daddy took of that piece of pizza and reaching for it. So cute!

She finally got to hold it, but doesn't have the teeth to do anything aout it.

They have really missed Aunt Sandy. What a fun time we had.

Jael and Emalea are so used to me taking pictures that they will pose for me, but sometimes they have to get silly and we take picture after picture after picture of silly faces. Here are a couple...
Jael making a silly face.

Emalea being silly.

For some reason I never get pictures of Angie... where does she go when I'm taking pictures.



We went to Target for some shopping. Emalea is modeling her accessories.

Emalea and Jael both pushed Maggie around the store in a "display only" stroler. It kept Maggie happy and the girls busy. What great babysitters. While Emalea was pusing her, Maggie actually fell asleep.

Jael modeling too. Yes that is a toy snake around her neck.

Wednesday we went to the Science Spectrum with a play group. The girls love the Science Spectrum and had fun this day.

Here Jael is doing a puppet show for Maggie.

Emalea going for a ride.

Jael holding Maggie. It's one of the first things that comes out of their mouths when I first walk into the room. "Can I hold Maggie?"

I think they were both a little tired.

Emalea loving on Maggie

She is so her "Daddy's Little Girl"

Friday night we went to Emma Cluff's baptism and when it was done we stayed to talk with friends.

Here Addison got to hold Maggie while her grandma watched. So cute!

This is Addison's sister Brinley. She was making sure to hang on tight. Maggie was a good sport.

Saturday we went to a wedding reception for Nathan and Joanna Davis out at the Vardeman's house. It was nice to see everyone. Here is the dress she wore for that night.

Her smile just makes my day!!!!

I just happened to take the picture at the same time she decided to practice getting her "guns up". She is getting there. Soon she will be signing all kinds of things.

Monday Emalea called and asked what I was doing. I told her that I was getting dressed and asked if she wanted me to come over. She said "Well if you want to" I said I did and then she asked if I was going to bring Maggie with me. I said I was going to and asked if she really wanted me to come over. She said "YES I do!" I love the fact that she loves Maggie so much.

Cousins

Paula, Sandy, Angie, Andrea and I did a foot shot one time bec. we all did our toenails. Now the girls will often ask to take pictures of their feet.

I love these girls and already miss Jael and Emalea so much. We sure wish the rest of the cousins could be here.

Maggie holding onto Emalea's thumb

At one time all 3 of the girls were intent on watching tv. I thought it was cute. Here they are...

Jael likes to take pictures so I let her take my camera and take as many pictures as she wants. Here are some that she took. She did take one of Angie, but I wasn't sure she would be happy with me if I posted it. We both just showered today and didn't do anything with our hair. At least in this one Maggie is covering me up some.
