Lewiston, a popsicle, football, and being at home

Grilling on the patio.

We WON!
Driving down to Lewiston, taking pictures of the wheat fields and my feet...

Maggie got a stomach bug, so we got some popsicles at the store; she liked them.

She is better now...

More Pictures!

At the Botanical Garden in Boise

While I was packing Maggie climbed into and out of the suitcase, but I was not fast enough with the camera, this is her attempting it again.

The church we went to in Boise met at a meeting hall and there was this portrait of George Washington. Maggie loved it, she would just look at it and point and smile.

Here is a closer look at the delight she experienced gazing at President Wahington.

Workin' hard at Tim and Kayla's-Thanks for letting us stay with you.

Finally I will give y'all what you really want.

This is the lovely guest room that Sam, Maggie and I stayed in in Sun Valley...

Everything was so beautiful.
Maggie loved playing in their backyard, and helped Grandma shuck the corn.

This is a store that I ran through before we left town, it had some really cool things.

Sparkly!

she is a climber...

Maggie has discovered the joys of climbing. This morning I got her up and first thing she wanted to do was to get down. Once down she walked straight over to her little rocker and climbed up. Once up she stood there and rocked back and forth. This new talent for scaling furniture has me a little nervous, but I try to stay back a little and let her explore. After all, she comes by it naturally. I was an avid climber in my time, and I survived, so she should be fine. I will just stay close enough to catch her.
She also like to go up stairs, either on all fours or with help from me or Sam. If we are helping her she doesn't do the typical slow baby climb, she steps on a stair with one foot and lifts up her other foot for the next step...
Something else new is Maggie's love of bananas. I break a banana into thirds and she just goes at it. When she gets hungry she will point to her high chair, and sometimes point to the fruit bowl for a banana. When she is finished she tries to push the tray away.
We are having a good time together.
