October/November

We've been going full speed ahead the last several weeks, so I haven't thought much about blogging. We've been getting over colds, helping Maggie practice walking and talking, hosting and attending gatherings, repairing flooded washing machines, refinancing the house, etc... There is just a lot going on in the Wilson household.

Here are some pictures and videos of recent events:

Halloween

Tickle Me, Mags

Walking Mags

Thanksgiving Program at Garner United Methodist Preschool

she keeps clapping throughout the "If you're happy and you know it" song.)

6th Annual Fakesgiving Dinner

NC State Fair

We had fun at the state fair last Saturday morning.  Here is a video and a few pictures...

Slide, fun house, and nauseating swing!

Hard to ride something like this when you're pregnant!  Pretty nauseating!

Katie caught a $2 fish, but only got a 10-cent toy!

Katie loved the Ferris Wheel, but Jimmy said it was so cold at the top.

I'm just glad it wasn't a turkey leg!

Mmmmmm!!!

Maggie's One-Year Check-Up

Little Maggie Moo is quite the little peanut!  She is only 18 lbs. 9 oz, which puts her in the 20th percentile for weight.  She is in the 25th percentile for both length and head circumference, measuring 28-1/4 inches long and a 17-1/4 inches around that little noggin.

Magglestein received her vaccines today and was pitiful while getting pricked, but passed out not long afterward.  Katie also got her flu shot and though terrified to begin with she managed to brave it out and was a champ afterward.

We met Jimmy for lunch this afternoon and Katie and Maggie both were revved up during meal time (Katie got ketchup all over daddy's clean white shirt), but passed out on the way home, and are still passed out as I type.  I'm next...

Maggie's First Birthday!

Maggie celebrated her first birthday this past weekend.  Friday, October 2nd, was the actual birthday, but we had some friends over on Saturday to celebrate...  I wasn't sure if we'd do anything big to celebrate since Miss Katie never got a first birthday party, but Katie seemed geared up to decorate and make cupcakes, so party on!

Here are some pictures of the event:

I got this design from another blogger - Annie's Eats 

(her ladybugs turned out way better than mine did!)

Maggie didn't keep the hat on long...

Let the fun begin!
