A typical day in Seward

Maggie was sortof dirty the other day, so I put her through the wash cycle. Don't worry, I used warm water, so it was just like a bath and look at how cute she came out!



Maggie discovered that her arms reach both sides of the handle of her car seat. Now, her favorite thing to do in the car is hold on and yell. It's loads of fun.

We leave tomorrow for Wisconsin and Maggie's first airplane ride. Wish us luck!

Family Tree

So to keep myself busy I've been working on the family trees that were supposed to be Christmas presents last year. I finally have it done, everyone branching out from Maggie. If you want to check it out, here's the link: Come check it out. I would appreciate any help you can give; let me know if I went down a wrong path (I am really unsure about the Novotny branch) or if you know a name that would extend it further or if you want to add your family and birthdays let me know. Otherwise, just enjoy. (Chuck's family has a branch that goes back to 1596, it's pretty cool!)

Also, Maggie got a second tooth. The other front bottom one. She told me she's going to try and get them all over with right away. Sorry, no new pictures, though.

Maggie's First Tooth!

Maggie got her first tooth, bottom front left, sometime between Friday and Saturday. She woke up inconsolable late Friday night, and on Saturday Karen pointed out that Maggie had a tooth. Well, now that she has a tooth, she's practically a toddler, so I let her try a frosted mini-wheat for breakfast. She really enjoyed it, until I think that it scratched her mouth and she screamed.

First Trip to the Mountains

This past weekend John had a 4-day weekend, so we took a trip to see Karen in Denver. We had a great time and all three of us had our first trip to the mountains.

I told John we need to go and stay in a hotel every couple of months, because when we got back to the apartment it felt so spacious!

Playing at the Park

Swinging on the swings - one of Maggie's favorite things to do...

At Brooke's Birthday Party

Maggie discovered her tongue on the trip to Seward.
Poppin' her collar, Uncle Andrew would be so proud.

Proud to be a Brewer fan!

First attempts at cereal, a pretty messy experience...

...which was of course followed up by bath time.

I came home from work and they were just sitting like this! Luckily the camera was right there.
