Likes/Dislikes: Maggie's love for her bouncer has seemed to fade as she has become more mobile. She's also not a fan of socks, hates them in fact. She's loving that she is able to move around easier and faster now that she is crawling. She really likes splashing in the bath, snacking on puffs, squealing and getting into her sister's stuff.
Development: Maggie has been a busy bee in the developments lately. She has been army crawling the last month and within the last week has started crawling! She's not super fast and goes at her own speed, but that is perfectly fine. Emma gets so excited for her when she crawls and tells her "good job". With the crawling comes the ability to get into everything. Big sister better hide her toys or learn to share! She's also slowly pulling her self up onto her knees from the coffee table. Maggie cut three teeth this last month (two top and another bottom), so has five teeth total and has two more top ones starting to come down. These last two teeth were/are brutal. She's waving hi/bye, giving kisses and saying "ba ba ba".
Sleeping: Taking a short nap in the morning and a longer one in the afternoon. Bedtime between 6:30-7:00 and waking between 5:15-6:30. We usually have to go in there to give her her pacifier once.
Eating: This girl is LOVING table foods. She's eaten pineapples, bananas, blueberries, noodles, peas and green beans. Her bottles on the other hand are another story. We are lucky if we can get her to drink four or five ounces out of the seven we make for her. She gets four bottles a day, but thinking of either cutting back to three bottles or just making less ounces.
Family Update: The month of February brings Matt "home" on weekends. By "home", I mean the team plays in Ames and he is around a little before game time and he sleeps here. The last five of the six weekends had him on the road. Ready to have him around a few more hours on the weekends. Matt and I continue to be in awe watching our girls together and how the play and how much they idolize each other. What an amazing gift to be able to watch our girls be best friends. We booked a much needed trip with some friends to Siesta Key in May and are thoroughly looking forward to an adults only trip with beach, drinks and sleep!!
