Maggie is One Month

Margaret Denise is One Month Old

10.5 lbs (on our home scale)

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.
