Golly Gee!

sorry for the blurriness on these photos.... My camera was soo off on these... but these photos were so cute I had to post them.

I'm not slacking. Just terribly busy.

This summer has been so full of wonderful moments, a growing child, lots of trips, and a lot of worked slammed in there too! I promise lots more photos coming soon... But I just wanted to show what keeps me mostly busy these days... maggie is mobile! ack!

I didn't go to Nam.

just warning you know... this is a post with TONS of photos. We have had a great summer, but in true monroe style, we have packed an obscene amount of things in. But maggie seems to enjoy it all- I took her along with me to youth conference and about everything else going on :)

first plane ride :)

















she loves swimming!







the rare photo of me :)



and the hilarious faces she makes....

like me

this is perhaps the only photo where maggie looks like me.

Sorry for my lack of blogging. To be honest- I have been playing pretty hard this summer, traveling, enjoying family...(and of course squeezing in work there too) and really just enjoying life. So I have many pics to come... but enjoy these shots of maggie for now....


















(these last pics were taken on our camping trip.)

bragging for her

my friend Brittany is pregnant... and this has been so exciting. She was there at Maggie's birth, and has been one of my good friends for many years. She is such a cute prego lady....and so I am bragging for her:



12 weeks... no bump.





18 weeks... smallish bump.






20 weeks.. small bump.

Oh she looks fabulous. She is going to be such a good mom :)

hello world!

guess who is getting big?
