Ice cream in one hand, baby in the other. Can life get any better?

Let's Try Again

Evening Nap

In the neverending quest to find the most efficient photo-blogging technique, I've turned to flickr. Blogger's mobile features worked beautifully for the last month, but they've been causing so many headaches this week that I felt compelled to try something else. Ideally, I would prefer to use picasa for this, but I can't find comparable features within it.

At any rate, here's a picture of Maggie taking a nap on Friday night. So sweet!

Friday Night at the Supermarket

Maggie prefers Boar's Head at the deli - thinly sliced, naturally.

Greetings from the Bathtub

Maggie loves it when her mom gives her a bath. Here she is, luxuriating in the snazzy bathtub that was a gift from Katie's former colleague Lorraine.

She's Back!

Looks like posting from the phone is an option once more. Chalk up another victory for Technology. This photo is from earlier this week. Maggie has been getting better at holding up her head. She can go for more than a minute already before she gets tired and has to rest.

Double Parentheses

Apologies for the lack of new posts this week. I've had problems with the link between my phone and Blogger. While I try to work it out, I'll be posting material manually. Hope you all have had a great week!

Maggie Mouse

Katie elected to give Maggie a more sporty look today. Though the pants make diaper logistics more of a challenge, they certainly are cute. If you don't see the pictures embedded below, click here.

Working Hard

Maggie has been getting better at lifting her head. It won't be long before she can hold it up.

There's a reason why it's called a pacifier

Socks and a Smile

Toweled Dry

Immediately following her first-ever tub bath, she was the essence of tranquility. Unfortunately, the mood didn't last through the wee hours.

Happy Belated

Sunday was Simon's birthday. He's squarely in canine middle age, having been born on the numerically unique date of 9/9/99. Though getting a little long in the tooth, Simon is still the same spirited dog who came to live with us shortly after Katie and I got married. He has transitioned nicely into our expanded household, and we look forward to many more years with our beloved L.G.

Maggie says, "Who's there?"

Maggie would like to know who's out there. If you've been checking in on her here, feel free to leave a comment and say hello!

At the Farmer's Market

New Jersey tomatoes are known for their rosy color, perfect roundness, and natural sweetness.

Peek-a-boo

Maggie plays hide-and-seek with her cousin Tallulah as Tito Joel looks on.

Pink Jailbird

This lovely ensemble was a gift from one of Katie's colleagues.

Now Playing: Maggie Comes Home

Lazy Afternoon

Maggie has slept well the last two nights, which has left her with plenty of energy for the sunlit hours of the day. Here she is with mom.

A Girl and Her Dog

The dogs have been great to Maggie since she came home. Both dogs have shown their protective nature. When we're in the bedroom, Simon sits on the top step of the staircase and watches for people crossing in front of the house. Cassie positions herself at the foot of our bed.
