Hello Blog viewers!

We've decided to end the Little Miss Maggie blog and start a new one devoted to both Maggie and her new brother, Sawyer.
The new blog address is www.maggieandsawyer.blogspot.com

So please check out this new blog for tales and pictures of Maggie and Sawyer!

Maggie's got a new Baby Brother!!

On February 4, 2008 at 5:52 pm, Sawyer Gene Lush was born.

Mom was happy for a fast, all-natural, healthy delivery.

Daddy's so proud of his little boy

Maggie loved her new baby brother from the first moment she saw him. She wanted up on the bed to see him right away and called him baby ("Bay-Beeeee") over and over again.

Both Maggie and Xander were fascinated with the baby. The baby dolls they carried to the hospital with them were quickly thrown to the side once they saw Sawyer.

Maggie loves sliding!

Especially with Daddy

Anyone need a tissue?

Christmas 2007

Mommie and Maggie all ready for a visit to work on Christmas Eve. Maggie loved this dress and kept calling herself "Anta"! Thanks Aunt Dean and Uncle Don for the adorable dress.

We tried putting out cookies for Santa, but Maggie kept taking them.

Our first real tree in the new house.

"I'm tired of opening."

"Yipee! I love my new bedroom set!"

Mommie at 36 weeks.

"I don't need anything else besides my frilly socks"

Maggie seems to be quite fond of her old car seat. Little does she know that another little baby will be using it soon.

Pre-Christmas family fun

Aunt Connie, Uncle John and Xander ("An-doo") went to NL for the holidays, so we had a pre-Christmas get together before they left. Maggie and Xander partied until the shirts came off and they ended up in a bologna box!!

Merry Christmas!!

Getting ready for Christmas

Maggie's no longer a baby, she's a toddler! Can you believe she's 16 months old?! Daddy and Mommy can't believe how big she is.

She's so much fun and is quite the joker these days. If she gets a laugh for doing something, 9 chances out of 10 she's going to do it over and over again until she's worn out.

As for Christmas, we're pretty sure she has no idea who Santa is or why we get so excited that he's coming in only a few days, but she does say "Anta" excitedly every time she see's some version of him and then rocks back and forth saying "Ho, Ho, Ho". Every now and again she runs to the Christmas tree and points and says "TEE!!" She then takes off the same 4 ornaments and hands them to Mommy and says "Help!"

She's also discovered the Christmas cookie jar. Every time we open it or go to move it, we hear "coo-coo" from down below and see and little hand reaching up just over the edge of the counter. How could you say no?

Here are some pictures of her at a kids Christmas party that our friends organize every year and also some of our first trip ever to get a real Christmas tree.

"You come near me 'Anta' and I'm ripping this bell apart."
