I have been AWFUL about keeping up with this blog. I used to actually write, but now I seem to only post pictures + videos sometimes. Sighhhhhhhhhhhh! Here is a quick-ish run down:
It seems the older Hot Pocket gets, the busier I am. She walks so good now, always into something. She celebrated her 1st birthday on the 2nd of this month. It was pretty surreal for me. When everyone started singing Happy Birthday to her, it took everything in me not to cry. I got ridiculously misty, don’t think anyone noticed (thank goodness).

om nom nom!
HP has been doing a little better with leaving her glasses on. There were 2 days in a row this month where she left them on for a few hour chunks. It comes in waves. Ugh, as I typed the last 2 sentences she yanked her glasses off. I jinxed myself.
Maggie is now 23 lbs + 31 inches + can say:
“yes”
“no”
“YAY!”
“eyes”
“mama”
“what’s that?”
She is a pretty vocal little thing.
She likes to carry my (f-ing huge) purse around the house + play with my cell phone. 1 going on 16. Scary!
I wish Harry was home already, but it’s just me + HP for Valentine’s Day today. An Edible Arrangement would have helped the day pass by a little easier, but the Valentines Fairy didn’t visit this year.

Happy Valentines Day! xoxo- Hot Pocket

Even if you don’t update as much as you wish (and I still think you do a good job), you can bet these are better than 99% of baby photos! Maggie’s going to have one special album! I have a question: how has Maggie’s relationship with Molly changed now that she’s super mobile?
P.S. Happy first birthday to you both!

Also, I can see why you’re so in love with your new lens. It is awesome and you are doing awesome things with it! Love that bucket pic.
