Twenty-Two Months.

Maggie is almost Twenty-two months old.  I can't believe our baby will be two soon !  Isn't she adorable in her pink bucket ? She loves to climb in buckets or storage totes and play.
Maggie's new BAHA hearing aid is doing wonderful.  First of all, it never slips off her hair -almost never.  She can even twirl,hang upside down and do front flips with it on ( which is very important to our little gymnast/dancer ).  She seems to be hearing very well with it on and doesn't mind the head band.  She really started babbling when we first put it on and then stopped a little.  Now, her cute baby babble is off and on throughout the day, but she REALLY babbles in her crib when she is all alone.  Patience.  I need patience.  It may be a while before Maggie starts talking or it could happen tomorrow or maybe she will never talk.  Either way, Maggie has her own way of communicating and letting us know what she wants and when she wants it.
She points,takes my hand and puts it on what she wants, says "uh uh" and yes she cries when she doesn't get her way.  Our little angel is still very much a velcro baby and does not like for  me to leave the room, cook dinner or fold clothes without her in my arms.   Really.  Thankfully, she loves to go to the church nursery and mother's day out and play.

And, our little peanut is getting to be a chubby,little girl. Tonight, she ate a bowl full of chicken and rice and then pointed with enthusiasm  to Chuck's sandwich on the table.  Yep,she ate that too !  We even started ordering her a children's plate if we go out to eat.  Maggie eats any kind of food and a lot of it. ( the grandmother's will all be happy at that !)

Hey Girl- If you'd like, I could give
help you learn some signs that I'm sure will help her communicate with ya'll, and I have lots of materials I could copy for you! Just let me know if you're interested.

She is like a livin' doll! I am so happy that her new hearing headband is working out so well.

Oh wow!...look at your little Sweetie Pie...she sure has grown. Her hair is getting longer, but those sweet cheaks are still as kissable as always!! :) It's been fun catching up on several of your posts here and hearing how she is doing. Glad the new hearing aid is working so well. I had to chuckle at the part where you called her a "velcro baby"...so funny. I love that termanology...it could so often fit Khloe, too. She is SUCH a mama's girl. She'll go to others, but she wants me there, too. Little stinker!! ;)

Keep the cute pics coming... LOVE seeing them. Oh, and happy belated Anniversary... we celebrated our 15th last Dec... number 16 will be here before we know it!!

God bless! <><
