Snow in April?!









So, we have not posted in a while. Partly because we have been so busy doing stuff, and partly because the camera battery charger went missing for 6 weeks or so. I bumble through this computer thing, so that was a major hardship, and besides not being able to take pictures, I was unable to figure out the card reader. (I am aware that is sad)
But enough about my inabilities, lets talk about what we've been up to... Magnolia had her first birthday last weekend! We had a great time with family and friends, the weather co-operated, and Maggie tasted her very first frosting. She tasted, then wanted everyone else to taste. Not as dramatic as I had expected, but super cute.
Maggie is doing all kinds of sweet things, she loves to look up at you and say 'hi' in the softest voice you've ever heard. She loves kissing, you, the cat, her toys, and her reflection in the mirror. She still loves the cat, and has started calling him 'meow-y'. But sometimes it sounds like 'Larry' (short for Polaris?) So now we occasionally call him 'Larry', it does seem to suit him. She looks for the meow everywhere we go, and seems surprised that every house doesn't have a meow (or meow-y). She likes to stand, and cruise on the furniture or walls. She is close to walking, but not quite ready. (It is much more efficient for her to crawl, thank you)
Here are some pictures, but no birthday pictures, sorry. Playing before bedtime, some from the weekend our Boston family was in town, and going out to enjoy the April snow (seriously!)
