Sweet Margaret Ann

I've been singing that to Maisy to the tune of "Sweet Caroline". Is it sometimes weird to think that Maisy is really Margaret? That's okay. I feel the same way about my name. I feel so much like Maggie that I sometimes forget I'm Margaret. I don't want Maisy to forget her real name though so I have to occasionally remind her:)

Maisy turned 18 months on the 11th of May. She is now a nursery girl and has been a champ in there. She went to the doctor and is 18 lbs. still. She is not on the curve for weight and is 15% for height. her head was at the 35th percentile. :) Her weight for height is good though, and she is growing and learning like she should be.
 I get this face a lot. Maisy is a  tease and is super giggly. She loves to be chased or tickled.
 This is her new favorite past-time. She does it any chance she gets and I've been better at moving her chair out of the kitchen.
 Maisy is communicating a lot better these days and says mom, dad, hi, bye, no, don't, Gracie, night-night, banana, shoe, bath, shower, and other situational words that I can't think of right now. She attempts lots of words that don't really sound much like anything. As I laid her down for a nap this morning I was staring at her and said, "I love you". I could tell by her mimicking the facials I was doing and her tone that she was trying to say it back. Sweet moments. I cannot wait for Maisy to see everyone when we get to Utah. She is really turning into a little girl.

She is a cute... but busy. Her and Maddie would get along great. They could play in the sand box for hours as well as spill things out of other larger things. (:
