Her first word, maybe? Hmmmm...

So, this will be a quick little update, but to let all of you Maggie fans out there (hee hee) know...
I think that maybe, just maybe, Maggie may have said her first word. At least it was a word to me, whether she actually realized it or not (that's another question). As I'm writing this, I can hear her Daddy cleaning up the kitchen from lunch and she is in her high chair. I think they're having a squealing match. Don't ever tell Tom I told that, but yes, he does actually "squeal" back at her.

So, about the word. Could have definitely been random babbling, but I would like to think it was meaningful. She looked at me and very slowly said, "Maaaa-Maaaaa". I smile just thinking about it. Little Maggie Sunshine is about to enter the world of the English language and wow...once she starts, I think we're all in for it. Her Granddaddy says that she will never stop once she has begun. I think he might have a point of truth there.

However, I will post pictures later of Maggie's latest adventures. For one, she went to her first Air Show on Wednesday night. Besides wishing she had brought her own earplugs (versus my hands, which stayed over her ears), I think she had a good time. She wore sunscreen for the first time and wore the little pink flowered dress that her Grandma Judy got her when she came down, and also the sunbonnet from her Great-Aunt Jeanie in Virginia. What a cutie! Everybody that passed her couldn't help but smile.

And then her other most recent adventure would be her first bath at Aunt Sarah and Uncle Bobby's house. In their kitchen sink. Ha ha! The pictures are hilarious! And Sarah assured me that the sink had been thoroughly cleaned before Maggie's little delicate hind parts were placed there. I wasn't worried, though. Really, Sarah, I wasn't. So, while Mommy Jennifer and Daddy Tom went on a date (fully dressed in our sweaty workout clothes straight from the gym), Maggie, Aunt Sarah, Aunt Sue, and Uncle Bobby all played. It's funny how dates change as life changes. Yeah - I would have never dreamed of going to see a movie in my nasty sweaty t-shirt and tennis shoes even 3 years ago. Now look at us. Wow. We had fun, though. After our traditional convenience store trip to buy junk food and after forcing two diet cokes and a 3 Musketeers Bar into my very small pocket book (and one bag of pretzels into Tom's back pocket), into the movie we went (which was Forgetting Sarah Marshall....irreverant, crude, and HILARIOUS). I highly recommend it if you're in any type of compatible mood for laughing at anything related with those last three words.

Okay - promise there are new pictures coming as soon as I have time to upload them. We're off to run errands with the Mags. Hasta la vista! :)
