I needed to record some milestones that have been achieved around here...
because I'm kind of a crazy person and for different reasons,
both have been a little hard for me to accept.
The first milestone was achieved by none other than Miss Maguire...
I'm still not even sure how it happened...
I certainly didn't encourage it.
I'm ashamed to admit it, but I even try to discourage her...
...but to no avail.
"sigh"
So the other day Maggie and I had just finished making my bed and naturally I said
"o.k. miss, let's go make your bed".
She turned sharply in my direction, put her hand up (I was quite affronted) and responded
"no... I do it".
What?!?
"C'mon Mags... we'll do it together"
She replied "no!" (more aggressively if I do say so myself) "I do it".
I was at a loss... I like things just so... does she know how to do it just so?
Well...
She did pretty stinkin' good...
don't tell her, but all I had to do to make it just so was adjust a comforter underneath just a teeny tiny bit.
-the picture below was before I made the teeny tiny adjustment.

Now on to mr.'s milestone...
yet another thing that I had nothing to do with encouraging *cough* Joel *cough*.
Anderson is now able to hold his own bottle, which he only practices with his Dad.
I still snuggle him right up to me and hold it for him so that his hands are free to hold my finger or pat my arm...
Which. I. Love.

hahaha Michelle thats funny. Um... such a cute post, but am I surprised that you had to fix the comforter afterwards... no. OCD much.
Haha Cutie kids! Please come do my house decor. It's kind of hard!
Your post makes me miss babies. Awww.
the last time i saw maggie... she was in your arms.. a tiny little baby.sigh..but what a good girl for making her bed ..pretty much just so...great post!
joel, you go ROCK those pink pants. as long as your not wearing a nighty or SCRUBS to bed, they are A ok. in fact, i love them.
Mag's did a great job making her bed, i still don't let my kids make their beds by themselves. I know this will bite me in the butt later but it has to look right.
I am amazed by Maggie. Honestly, that is pretty darn impressive. Also, Anderson looks is SOOO beautiful. He looks quite a bit like Nate in that first pic. Can't wait to see you soon.
