Happy Halloween!

Meagan was out and about again at the neighborhood Halloween party. She chose her rabbit costume for the occasion over her bumblebee - that will debut tomorrow during trick or treat (no repeat costumes for this socialite). Meagan also welcomed in a new cousin on Friday - Happy Birthday Jack! They have not had the pleasure of meeting yet, but will soon and I imagine a photo or two may make it onto this site. Meagan has been keeping Mom, Dad, and the grandmothers on their toes as her crawling expertise grows. She can also go from crawling to sitting and is quite proud of this skill. She has been trying some little snack foods but so far is not too taken with them - she prefers her meals in the pureed form.

A happy Bunny!

8 Months and still going strong

Meagan just turned 8 months old and celebrated by starting to crawl! She has a bit more learning to do, she usually makes it a couple of inches and then completes a faceplant into the carpet.
Here is Meagan in a preparatory position. She has not quite figured out how to get from a laying/crawling position up to a seated postion but she is getting pretty close. Mom and dad are now shopping for containment devices - Look out Lucy!
Meagan has now incorporated screaming into her feeding schedule. She has decided that it is a very good idea to yell as loud as she can as the spoon of food approaches her mouth. She will then stop screaming and eat the food - very curious.

Great grandma and the great grandkids 

Fall is here!

Meagan is now 7 months old and she is doing great! She just got into her new Browns cheering outfit all set for an afternoon of football (except for nap time of course). Meagan is now very interested in grabbing everything in sight and getting those things into her mouth as quickly as possible. She still has just 2 teeth, but mom and dad think others are soon to emerge. She is taking to her baby food very well and just tried out some beef and carrots today - her first foray into meats. Although still not much of a party girl, she is getting better handling large crowds of people and she still loves to be outside and look at the trees. She also loves her jogging stroller, she took daddy for a long run and managed to sneak in a nap as well - what a multi tasker! She is getting very close to crawling, on a few occasions she has done some scooting from all fours. In a few weeks we will have to worry about containing her.

Touchdown! 

Are you ready for some football? Go Browns! 

Just couldn't be happier! 

You look Maaarrrrvelous
