(Big sister Kate dressed Maggie up as a princess too. Maggie loved it!)New things about Maggie this month: she is really and truly loving Kate! Maggie watches Kate's every move and also laughs at the appropriate times to encourage her big sister to act even sillier. It is a nightly ritual that Kate will go into Maggie's room and repeatedly fall on the floor and say "oh" over and over and Maggie never tires of this routine. It is so, so fun to watch them interact and I'm so looking forward to the day that they can actually play together. Maggie is working on sitting up, however since I'm a terrible mother and don't encourage "tummy time," her core isn't as stable as it should be. But don't worry, I've gotten her on a strict pilates workout to stablize that core and she'll be sitting up in no time!:) She has the frog pose okay, but we are working on the sitting up so hopefully we'll have that to report next month. She is starting to actually babble, more than just the high pitch squeal thing from months past. She lays in her crib and "bah, bah, bahs" over and over...it's really cute!
And just a little side story about sweet Kate Butler: driving home from school on Wednesday and I ask her to "please" not turn her cup upside down so the water doesn't spill out and she replies "Why do you always boss me?" To which I reply, "Because I'm the boss!" Such a mom statement!
Here are the two pictures of the girls on their 6 month birthdays. Kate is the top picture and Maggie is the bottom picture.

I can't believe Mags is 6 months old!! It just seems like last month when I was over there for your last outing before she made her arrival into the world! Thanks for letting me be apart of your family!
Your baby girls look SO much alike!!!
