Maggie says " mama" !!

Last Friday, Maggie looked at me and said "mama" when I gave her a sippy cup of juice.  Then on Saturday, she did it again.  I tried not to get my hopes up, because she has said other words before and then never again.  But, she has never called me mama.
Then today, she reached up her arms to me and said " mama - mama" very clear and plain !! Oh my goodness - the world stopped for a second !  Maggie is talking and her first words are mama - mama !!
All day today, she has reached for me and said "mama" and she cried after her bath and wanted "mama".

          The pizza delivery man was just leaving and we were about to close the front door. Suddenly, Maggie ran outside to catch the pizza guy. She had something very important to say !  She yelled from the front porch " Happy Jingle, have a merry jingle, um, I mean, have a merry Christmas ! Merry Christmas !"  We hope you all had a very merry Christmas too !!

Big Milestone !

We're celebrating ! Because Maggie is potty trained !!! For reals.  I started potty training Maggie way back in the summer, but I was not consistent at all.  So, I kind of gave up.  Then, Maggie started a new school and her teacher is known as the "potty whisperer".  Seriously. She is known to magically transform little ones from diapers to potty in just a week. And so she did. It took about a week for her to start going potty. She is even sleeping in her big girl panties - no pull ups - and no accidents at night. We are all so proud of her !  I think Maggie is pretty proud of herself too !
