Maggie's Newborn Photos & Family Pictures

My good friend Jodie Martin took some photos of Maggie and our family. Maggie didn't really cooperate (it was pretty chilly outside for a May evening), but Jodie was still able to get some fantastic shots of her, and the boys, and our whole family. We love her and highly recommend her--thanks Jodie!!! (And thanks to Amy for loaning out her awesome farm for our backdrops.)











  



Even a fun one of the boys and my parents, who came along as boy wranglers.

We headed down to Irvine to visit with Papa and celebrate Father's Day weekend at the Dodgers game. We watched them play the Giants and Maggie got to check off her 1st Dodgers game off her bucket list. (She beats Levi as the youngest Lockridge kid to ever see an MLB game by one week!) 


Rocking our Dodger blue!

These boys love Dodger Stadium almost as much as their Daddy and Papa.

We also snuck in some time at the beach, and this princess had the best spot in the sand.

And no trip to a hotel is complete without lots and lots of swimming. These fishies were all over that pool and Maggie proves that she is still not a fan of the water. But Happy Father's Day to the very best Daddy around!

Maggie is a sweet, sweet baby who sleeps well, eats well, and is just along for the ride. She is still sleeping most of the time but is slowly waking up more often and even giving us smiles. Her big brothers are convinced they taught her how to smile and they are very proud of themselves. They absolutely adore her and fight over her attention and face time when she's awake. They are big helpers as far as grabbing things for Mommy and throwing things away. They also like to yell, "She needs milk!" every time she cries. Very helpful. :) Maggie likes to be swaddled, she sometimes likes her pacifier, she seems to tolerate the noise levels at our house, and she just loves to be held and cuddled so we are soaking up every minute of this newborn phase. I've even heard her Daddy throw the word "perfect" around. Watch out world!


Along for the ride: trips to the Farmers Market and Library.

Sweet, sleeping smiles

The Annual Scottish Festival with our neighbors.
(Maggie's not in this one, but she was there too!)

She has lots of love from her brothers and cousins and she has plenty of "sheep dogs" to watch over her and protect her. 

She loves to be swaddled, but apparently Mommy needs to work on her skills.
