the difference between men and women..

Now I've done a post in the past with this same title, but just another funny example that this is so true!

Our cell phone bill usage

Caden's minutes used: 95

Megan's minutes used: 602

Total minutes left from 700 shared: 3

Now this isn't including mobile to mobile minutes either.

I would have used more minutes, but the last 3 days of the bill I had to communicate through text only. It was hard. So the first day that the bill started over, I did my talking and let's just say 100 minutes went by fast. Caden came home and said, "Who did you talk to?!" "Well you know! My dad for 20min, my mom for 20 mins, my sister for 20 mins..... It adds up!!"

Thanks for putting up with me sweets!

For the last few months Maggie has been stealing our pens and scriptures and "doodling", so we got her a scribble board of her own. It was one of her favorite toys. I swear she already prefers her right hand.

She also got a baby doll from our neighbors with a baby bottle. After we opened it and a few minutes of playing with it, maggie took the bottle and started feeding the baby. I didn't even show her how to do that! She will give her baby hugs and tilt her head while she's hugging her.

She'll watch me snap my fingers and she'll try it, but make the clicking sound with her tongue.

It's just these little things that make me look at my baby and think, "You're not so little anymore..."

This week we went to the doctor to get those awful one yr old shots! :( I too decided to get the flu shot with her. I was holding Maggie on my lap and as the nurse gave me the shot I said, "Oh wow, that stings a little." Maggie took one look at me, and then and the nurse and broke down in tears!! I had to assure her that Mommy was okay, I was just getting a shot like her! I didn't know if she was crying cause she knew what was coming, or if she was just looking out for me. It was so sad, but cute.

Height: 30.5 in (88%)

Weight 21 lbs (50%)

She now walks halfway across a room to me (about 10 steps on her own).

and has 4 almost 6 teeth.

She's One!!!

Our little birthday girl was surprised to see us coming in her room pampering her with breakfast in bed. She was so excited she was bouncing up and down while shoveling handfuls of french toast in her mouth. If was then off to open some new toys (that she picked out).

Later that night we had an all pink birthday bash!

Aunt Mal made this awesome adorable Owl cake that tasted delicious!!

When it came time to dig into the cake Maggie just kept staring at the owl. I'm not sure she liked it looking back at her. To help her along we shoved a hand in the cake for her..... Bad idea! She did not like being dirty. She ate and ate if I fed it to her, but she did not want to touch that owl.

She warmed up to it...

Maggie even took her first few steps on her birthday!

It was so fun to celebrate Maggie's first birthday with all our family there! Thanks for coming!
