she's taken over

Maggie has taken over...

the kitchen

the doorways

the bathroom

the ottoman (which was once filled with dvd's)

and now my living room!

not only has she taken over, but now my stuff has got to go. For the first few days I kept telling her, "that's mommy's" "that's not for maggie", but after 10 times re-stacking books...she won. She is crawling everywhere! and fast! I also have to vacuum and sweep the floor daily if I don't want to fish stuff out of her mouth. Oh Maggie! what will we do with you.

if planted it will grow

Well I started a garden. It's the first time in my life I have planted something. I was so nervous to do this. I googled for probably a good 2 hours about container gardening before buying our plants. I probably asked the stupidest questions to the "plant lady".

While Caden and I were potting our plants he mentioned that some might not turn out or grow, but it's worth trying. I then told him to have a little faith! I had to remind him that "faith is like a little seed. if planted it will grow!"

(I'm also doing this for my young women's project)

We planted tomatoes, green peppers, jalapenos, green onions, radishes and a geranium. It's been so fun to watch them grow. They have really taken off, except the green peppers that is...

and i think Maggie is enjoying the extra time out in the sun as I garden

GOING PRIVATE!

every time i have shown Caden our blog in the last 2 years he has asked me, " is it private yet?" "well, um, no. i want all to see just how adorable miss mags is!", i think. Now i suppose i should stop being naive about psycho's so......today's the day. i guess it's time.

Please leave a comment with your email.

i would love to keep hearing from you! your comments truly make my day!

.

now as my husband always says to his students,

" have the best day of your entire life!"

picnic in the park

Even though it was a bit chilly for a picnic in the park last week, we couldn't resist loading maggie and a sandwich in the jeep for a little ride. i'm so lucky to have these two.
