Savannah Sits!

Mr. and Mrs. Margjeka

Greg and I traveled to Birmingham last week to celebrate my best friend Meg's wedding! We had the most amazing trip and can't wait to see more of Meg and her wonderful husband, Armand. We love you both!

Goodnight Prayers

Dinner Conversation Last Night

Meagan- "I hear thunder."
Mommy- "I think that's an airplane."
(Meagan turns around to look out window.)
Meagan- "I don't see an airplane. It's dark outside. Go get the flashlight, please. Daddy put it in the laundry room."
(Mommy returns with flashlight.)
Meagan- "I see the airplane! Boss is on the airplane to Israel!"

Savannah's 6-month Checkup

Savannah had her big checkup today and weighs 15 lbs., 10 oz. (50%) and is 25.5" long (50%). She also started sitting up by herself this weekend! We are so proud of our little girl and can't believe half a year has already flown by. These next six months will be filled with creeping, crawling, and hopefully a few first steps! Stay tuned for new pics soon!

Let the Potty Training Begin!

Meagan unwrapped her very own princess potty last weekend and was so excited. She immediately knew what it was, but thought it would be more fun to put some toys in it, take it apart, then throw it in the bathtub! This should be interesting...

Dora the Explorer

Meagan had a great time seeing Dora live last night at the Orpheum! We had seats front and center, and Meagan loved seeing all her favorite characters dance and sing. She played with her Dora toy and kept saying, "Swiper, no swiping!" the entire ride home. Thanks, Grandmommy and Granddaddy!

Bye-bye, Bottle!

Last night we had a major milestone...Meagan gave up her bottle! Naturally, this was not by choice, but by force, but she took it very well. Greg loaded her up on chocolate milk (in a sippy cup) after dinner, then she had her bath and went to bed without protest. What a big girl! Now we only have Savannah's bottles to wash every day!

Sleepy Savannah

We are so proud of our baby girl for sleeping through the night! She was doing pretty well a few weeks ago, but then had a relapse and started waking up at 3:30 every morning to eat. I nipped that in the bud last night, let her cry for about 10 minutes, and she ended up sleeping 13 hours. Hooray! Now, let's just pray it lasts...

Meagan's 2-year Checkup

Meagan had her 2-year appointment today and weighed in at 23 lbs. (10%) and measured 33" (25%). Dr. Bubba was very proud of her growth spurt and Meagan was just glad she had "no shots"!

Savannah goes back for her 6-month checkup next month and we're guessing she'll be almost caught up to Meagan...
