Ohio

We have finally downloaded tons of pictures from our trip (ok... 562 to be exact). I will spare you most of the boring ones and will only post a few shining stars (maybe 100 or so...). Here we go: Maggie investigates Grandpa Bill's glasses
...meeting of the minds ...with Auntie SusSus
...with Great Gram Trudie

New cousins

Maggie finally got to meet many of her cousins while in Ohio. Here she is with Penny & baby Owen.

We are back!

We had a great trip! I will try to upload pics as quick as possible. Until the vacation pics are up... here is a picture of Maggie's Great Grandfather (the one on the right) Win Endicott. Of course much of the discussion at home was about who Maggie took after... do you think she looks like Win?

Last post for a while ;)

Maggie & I are heading to the states tomorrow. Hopefully she will enjoy her first plane ride and it will be a smooth trip. I will try to post some pictures while we are enjoying our time with family. Wish us luck and we will see you in a month!

Another night out with the Baughs

Matt & Jamie came back through England on their European tour.

Just because...

Getting her revenge for the kissing monster...

Going in for the big kiss

Sitting and Rasberries

We have been really busy with our great friends in town. Big news around our house... Maggie has learned to sit up all on her own! We are really excited about that, but mom is more excited about her sleeping through the night. So, we are well rested and ready (I think) for the next stage... crawling.

Out on a date...

Enjoying a night out on the 'town' with Matt & Jamie.

The Attack

Maggie has no idea that the kissing monster is just behind her and poised for an attack.
Here he comes! Maggie yelling like a dinosaur... her new favorite sound.

Matt & Jamie babysitting

Maggie getting ready for lunch

She gets really excited about her lunch. Notice the green bowl in the lower left hand corner of the first picture... that is the bowl heading towards her.

Day trip to Ely

The Baughs are here!

Matt & Jamie came for a short visit to England. Here they are trying to get out of the phone booth and below, John & Matt solving the problems of the world.

Laughing with Mom

Having fun on the floor!

Exploring her world

Can you tell we love this little girl?

Night at the pub...

We dragged our friend Renee and her little dog Oscar to the pub with us on Sunday. It was fun to sit by the fire on a cold night and introduce Maggie to the ways of village life.

Add your own caption...

Any thoughts on what the caption should be?

Yes, we took the baby to the bar...

... but we had to celebrate promotion night with the 'boys'! Maggie just chillin' at the Mess.

It's raining!!

Needless to say, the British winter is in full swing. Here we are looking out the window at the trees swaying in the wind.

5 Months Old!

Little Maggie is 5 months old! Hard to believe! She is a very happy baby... laughing and smiling all the time. Luckily the crying spells are getting shorter and shorter as her sleep at night is getting longer (up to 9 hours finally)! She is rolling her way across the room and slowly her little knees are coming under her tummy getting ready to crawl. We just can not believe how lucky we are to have a healthly little baby girl.

Smiling girl

As you can see from the shiny chin, there is ton of drool happening at our house! If this is an indicator of teeth coming in... I sure hope it happens before we get on the airplane in a few weeks.

Winter Walk

The news this morning said that this is the most depressing day of the year. Well, if the weather is any indication, I would say that they are right. Rainy and cold. At least we have Maggie to cheer us up! Here she is ready for our morning walk... all bundled up. She loves her new hot pink hat from MaryLou!

Little Cutie

Getting her ear scratched. She looks so happy!

Castle Acre

Out and about in Norfolk. We took a Sunday drive in the countryside and stopped at a cute little village. After tea and scones we headed out for a walk to see the castle and the priory.

New favorite activity

...pulling Mom's hair. She looks so determined!!

Time to start eating!

Maggie has started playing around with some rice cereal. So far, no issues here! She loves it!
