Maggie was blessed yesterday. I was able to take a few pictures of her in her dress despite our busy day. I had her dress made by the very talented Angie Lavalla. She used some of the left over fabric from my wedding dress alterations to make the blessing dress. I love the way it turned out. And Maggie is beautiful!

This week was a week of milestones. Maggie turned one month old and Dean turned twenty-one months old. Both children went up a diapers size and both had to retire some clothing they have grown out of. Dean is now putting two and on some occasions threes words together.
Maggie is holding her head up more and sleeping less.
I took both of them to the doctor on Tuesday. Dean now weighs in at 28 lbs. and is 35 inches tall. Maggie packed on nearly three pounds since she was born, she is now 9 lbs 2 oz. She also grew two inches and is now 21 inches tall. And I went running today for the first time in a long time. It was a full week and a good week.

Yesterday Maggie turned one week old. The poor thing already has a cold, thanks to her big brother. Luckily she hasn’t had a fever and she already seems to be doing better.
Maggie got to met her cousins Sophie and Violet. Dean was so happy to have someone to play with. They all had fun playing with Dean’s new t-ball set. We are so lucky to have great family, we wish they lived closer!

Magdalene was born early Saturday morning. We got home from the hospital yesterday and things are starting to settle down. Maggie looked so cute today that I had to capture her sweetness. Dean is loving Maggie, he wants to know where she is all the time. Last night he insisted on putting her to bed before he would go to bed. I think he will be a wonderful big brother.

I can’t believe March is already here. I have been so busy time has flown by. I have been really bad about blogging lately partly because I have been busy but mainly because my laptop broke a few weeks ago and I just got it back. My time without a laptop really setback my work on my thesis, but it did free me up to finish some things for Baby Maggie (who will most likely be arriving this week!). Here is a little preview of the crib skirt I made for her. Once we have a crib set up for her I will post more pictures. We do have a bassinet set up and ready to go. We can’t wait to meet our little girl.
Dean will be twenty months old on the 11th and he really needs a haircut.
Dean has a few new loves in his life: baseball, bubbles, airplanes, ducks, monkeys and The Mickey Mouse’s Club House. While we were at the park on Saturday he left the playground and wondered over to the baseball field to watch the little league game. He watched the game for a good twenty minutes and didn’t want to leave when the game was over. His father was so proud. I guess liking baseball is imprinted in the genetic code. It certainly is not in my genes, I have to really try to enjoy it. Dean has also added many words to his vocabulary. He seems to be learning and growing continuously.

From our little book worm.
February is here and Valentine’s Day is just around the corner. For V. Day Sean is cleaning up our balcony and buying me plants to put out there. I am hoping it will be a great place for Dean to play. The weather is so nice we really should spend as much time outside as possible. I still don’t know what I will be giving Sean. Maybe, I should just count giving him a baby girl as his Valentine’s gift. After all, Miss Maggie Bea is Due to arrive in just five short weeks (well hopefully “short”).
We hope all of you have a wonderful holiday.
