Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween to all! As you can see, our MagB is Princess Leia for Halloween and despite the look on her face she had a fabulous time at the Halloween Carnival at mimi and papa's church on Sunday. Here are some more pics.

Now I don't know about you. but when I see this costume I see Princess Leia right off the bat. However, not one, but two people at the carnival thought Maggie was a ram. Huh?! Do rams wear dresses? I think not.

Here is a pic of Mags sporting her new jeans.

It's hard to believe Maggie is 4 months old now. She really is getting so big. She has rolled over a few times and really enjoys her tummy time. She weighted 15 lbs. 3 oz. at the doc on Friday and is 26 inches long. She remains in the 97th percentile for height and the 90th percentile for weight. What a big, sweet girl!

Love to all!

A Pumpkin for the Punkin!

We spent last weekend in Brownwood with Michael's dad and sister. Saturday Meredith and I took advantage of the fabulous fall-like weather and took Maggie to a local pumpkin patch for pictures. She tolerated the excursion - which meant she went along with the silliness but protested with absolutely no smiles. (You can make me lay here for the pictures but you can't make me smile. a-ha!)

Really mom, on top of the pumpkins?

After we finished with the pictures a young man who worked at the pumpkin patch - obviously enchanted with the cuteness that is Miss MagB - came up with a small pumpkin and asked if the Punkin needed a Pumpkin. Well of course she does. Here's the punkin with her pumpkin (still protesting the strange orange orb with no smiles).

The next few pics are just some random ones taken over the last few weeks. Now, normally I am not a fan of the baby accessory I like to call the brain squisher. Us thick-haired types say leave those to the baldies who need gender identification. However, Maggie received a cute outfit from a neighbor that came with a matching BS (brain squisher) so I thought, what the heck, let's try it. And, I must say - pretty darn cute!

This next picture captures one of my very favorite faces (second only to her huge gummy grin!)that Maggie often likes to sport. I call it the squishy face. Usually she reserves this face for waking up time. It's a sweet, groggy, I'm awake but not sure I want to stay that way face.

Here's Mags with her forever-wet chin. I expect a colony of mushrooms or other moisture-loving fungi to sprout up any time. What is it with the drool? (Though it does make for some good slobbery kisses!)

Here is more sweet squishy face. It's hard, tiring work being Magb.

Love and squishy faces to all!

Our Weekend at Mimi & Papa's House

The Aggies had a late game Saturday so while Michael headed to College Station, Maggie and I headed to Mimi and Papa's for her first sleepover there. We had a really good time playing with aunts and cousins, cheering on OU and the Aggies and being spoiled rotten by Mimi & Papa! Here are a couple of pictures Mimi took before church on Sunday. And speaking of church on Sunday, MagB was a hit at the Lakeside COC. Of course, we think she's a hit wherever she goes.

Today is Columbus Day and Maggie and I have the day off! Hope you all have a great week! We love you all.
