Happy Birthday Logan!

Maggie attended her first birthday party on Saturday celebrating her cousin Logan's first birthday. She had a great time and was completely worn out by the time we got home. She slept the rest of the afternoon and in the process must have gotten her days and nights mixed up as we have not had a good night of sleep since the party. Mommy is tired.

This is my last full week with Maggie before I have to go back to work. I am trying not to think about it too much because when I think about it I start bawling like a baby and - as I have mentioned before - I get really short of breath and, well, it's just not good. I have been praying for some time that God will give me the strength and courage and whatever else it's going to take to leave my little MagB at daycare. Please keep me in your prayers as the dreaded day is quickly approaching.

Now back to a lighter note - here are some recent pics of Maggie:

Here's Mags all gussied up for the party. One must-have accessory this season is the bib as MagB has become quite the slobber monster. Really. I expect a tooth to pop up at any time.




Here is cousin Logan with his birthday cake. At first he was not too sure about the tasty confection before him...

...But then he decided that cake is good. (And cookies too, as you can see at Laurie's blog at http://www.lauriesthreesons.blogspot.com/)

Oh, and you can't just sport any old bib - it has to make a statement. Mags would like the world to know that she loves her daddy!

And from the looks of things here, the feeling is quite mutual! These were taken after church on Sunday.

Maggie made some new friends at the birthday party. Here she is with Paige and Paige's mommy Tanya - one of my dearest friends. Paige turns two next month.

Love to all!
