Kicking It Into High Gear

Maggie Grace is walking! She picked the best weekend in the world to do it too. Everyone was in town for her baptism and got to see her walk. In my opinion it's all due to Sol, Maggie Grace decided she just had to keep up with him. It was such a wonderful weekend. We went to the Atlanta aquarium and then had a big pizza party at our house. Sol and Maggie Grace played like there was no tomorrow and Maggie Grace ate pizza like she would never get a chance to taste it again. Sunday morning Maggie Grace was baptized and then Ben and I made lunch for everyone before they headed home.

Last week Ben, Maggie Grace and I went to Savannah on vacation. We had such a blast! We did a lot of walking around the historic district, it was simply beautiful. One day we went to Tybee Island and took Maggie Grace to the beach. The temperature was okay but the wind was blowing so it was a bit chilly, we only got to play in the water for about 20 minutes or so.

Here is Maggie Grace with her purse, ready to run some errands. She loves this purse! Last night while cleaning up her room before bed I couldn't find a puzzle piece. I looked high and low. Imagine how hard I laughed when I opened up her purse this morning and there it was! She is hilarious. She will put anything and everything in there and she loves to walk, stop, check the contents of the purse, and resume walking.

She has also decided she wants to use silverware. We've been giving her a baby spoon but tonight she wanted the real thing. She looked at me while eating dinner, looked at my fork and started talking, so I handed her my fork. It's pretty funny because she can't really work a spoon or fork well, so she will place the food on the fork and then take the food off, and put it in her mouth.
