This is girl is growing so fast each and every day!! She is trying to use more words.....her favorites are "daddy" and "shoe" (sue). She also attempts "eee" for Reed, mama, ba (ball), signs more and all done, bye-bye+backward wave, na (nana--banana)....she so full of life and energy! She loves clapping and tries to dance, put her hands together to "pray", she has lots and lots of constant jargon babble. She "yells" at the big kids! She truly is so cute and so so so much fun!!! I want to savor each and every moment where she is because I know in no time it will pass into another season! We love this sweet thing so much! And as busy and on the go as she is we can't imagine not having her apart of our family! Love you sweet Maggie Starks!</div>

And I also mentioned making this blog private...and I still might! I haven't had a moment to think lately because May is such a crazy busy month as I'm sure everyone else feels same way!<br />

Maggie continues to grow and change so much each and every day! It really is amazing how fast you realize it goes by with the 4th child.......we wake up start our day and before I know it bedtime has arrived! Then we prepare to do it all over again the next day! Trying to soak in and remember each of these ages.....Reed 7.5 years; Emery-Claire 5.5 years (turning 6 this week); Mary Etta 4.5 years and Maggie 17 months......our days go by so fast and they are still young and little (though not as little as my days with a 3 year old, 1 year old, and infant!)<br />

It's amazing too to see her understanding of words and language, and attempt to use them grows and grows........<br />
"no" (she definitely understands and attempts to say "na")<br />
"bye bye"<br />
"da"(for daddy)<br />
"mama"<br />
"ee" (for Reed)<br />
"na" (for banana)<br />
"Ga" (when asked "who made you?" she responds with "Ga" for God)<br />
signing 'more' and 'all done' with and without prompting<br />
shows her teeth when asked where they are<br />
knows what to do with a brush--brushes her hair<br />
plays peek a boo....esp if ask "where is maggie?"<br />
"uh uh" for uh-oh<br />
tries to vocalize with singing; so sweet!<br />
<br />
We love you more and more everyday sweet Maggie Starks! You are one busy and active girl, but you bring such joy to our family! You are a precious precious joy and blessing!<br />

So our baby girl turned 15 months.....well, not sure when exactly, because like last year in February (when she was to turn 3 months) there of course are not 30 days.....so I just say by March 1st she's officially that month older : ) So now were over halfway through March---so crazy she's been 15 months for a few weeks now! The girl is trying to walk! She will do it some and be so cautious and slow, but then drop to her hands and knees because of course crawling is way more faster!<br />

She is growing....getting lots more hair, her two top upper central incisors are coming in, and even two upper side teeth are coming in as well! She is a busy and very curious girl! Shoo I forgot how busy toddlerhood is! This girl can be up the stairs, in the toilet, legos in mouth, etc. in no time at all! She is full of fun and beginning to consistently do some of those cute things. Like using her pointer finger to point and shake when we say "where is your light?" to sing "this little light of mine." She tries to imitate a few animal sounds....they aren't exactly accurate but she is really trying to imitate. And she loves making kissing noises....for awhile she was giving us open mouth kisses, but now she is making the sound more. </div>

Christmas music playing, decorating the house, shopping for and wrapping the presents, Christmas programs at school, going to see Christmas plays or Nutcracker ballet, looking forward to time with family and close friends......It's all so fun and festive......though I often find I get more wrapped up in all the above than what our most important! We are remembering and celebrating the birth of Jesus! Our Savior, Redeemer, God sending His own Son as man Himself!<br />

So in the busyness of all the hustle and bustle, I know I myself so easily forget to slow down and truly focus on what is of utmost important in my life....not the presents, or the decorations, or the christmas cards ordered---but that Jesus Christ came to earth! He came to live the perfect life and die the perfect death so that I might have eternal life with Him! I love our advent calendar using the Jesse tree and scripture passages that go through all of redemptive history from creation of the world to birth of Christ! The kids really got into it this year and I loved how each day they would recap what all the ornaments on our Jesse Tree represented!<br />

We've also had an eventful season in other ways as well......sickness....ahh yes we can't seem to escape our typical seasonal Christmas sickness! I thought it was pretty unbelievable to see since 2008 the amount of sickness our family has encountered-----<br />
<br />
2008: we did gather with my family and after arriving at my MIL house, Reed got sick with a virus that a few days later turned into a diagnosis of rotavirus, which landed us in the hospital for several days!<br />

2009: Mary Etta was little (5 months old) and she was sick with a fever/virus; I got strep throat; my nephew had been in the hospital for RSV/pneumonia---so that year my family did not gather! We stayed home!<br />

2013: FLU!!!! oh yes the willis family was hit with the flu (or at least Maggie and Momma!) so far no other victims........so needless to say there is no traveling for us to be with my family again this year. and Christmas day Casey started with some sort of stomach flu.....then finally about 7-8 days later he was better...but then I started (and Reed had a mild version)....but wow! it's been a long 2 weeks!!!<br />

So since then....it's now kinda felt like a whirlwind! All the decorating, getting ready for Christmas, wrapping up the school year, etc. Some days I feel like we just had Maggie and she just joined our family....other days I feel like she's always been with us and I can't really remember what it was like before her?! Which seems so strange because for over 3 years we just had the other 3 (or the "triplets" as I like to call them--since they were all 3 born within less than 3 years)....I hardly remember all the transitions....just one day we had one child and the next 3 children!<br />

I am very thankful for this sweet family of ours.....some days are hard....it is exhausting always being needed, feeling like I can never accomplish tasks, staying up late to get things done/getting up early to be ready for the day......but I know that I'm so greatly blessed and that there truly is nothing I'd rather be doing or anywhere else I'd rather be! Some days I know I easily complain and need to grab hold of how gracious the Lord is to me......time with these sweet babies is fleeting and we only have so much time to savor these little years.<br />

so we are richly blessed indeed......and as quick as the first year flies, I'm still savoring and soaking in every moment with all 4 of these babes.....I know I fail so often at being selfless and loving them all well, but thankful for a gracious and merciful God who not only forgives me yet sees His perfect & righteous Son covering all my sin! So grateful He loves me because of Him and not what I can or can't do! What a privilege to be in this advent season to reflect on these great truths and celebrate the coming of the baby Jesus---our King and Lord and Savior!<br />

How is it possible that we are approaching that first birthday.....I knew it was coming, getting closer and closer....but still hard to believe it''s already that time! She's crawling, busy, into everything, loves to eat everything, wants to be and do whatever the big kids are doing; totally entertained by them! She has all sorts of fun little tricks....raspberries, tongue clicks and other noises, shaking her head (especially to music--so cute), giving open mouth kisses (the sweetest), and lots of babbling to keep up with the loudness in our house! My personal favorite is "mamama" of course!<br />
<br />
Now for some pictures.......<br />

<br />

i can tell at our ages....7, 5, 4.....they are getting the concept much more than even last year and really thinking beyond their usual "thankful for food!" reed wants to say he's thankful for Jesus almost daily....which is great, but I try to prompt him to think of other things Jesus has done for him that he can be thankful for.....Mary Etta often wants to copy what Emery-Claire says.....but she's had a few original ideas....apple pie (after we had some apple crisp after dinner one night), gum from Gigi, and daddy taking her to chick-fil-a.<br />
<br />
so i can't find our previous thankful trees....maybe i forgot to take pictures of......<br />
<br />
but i do have post from <a href="http://thecwillisfamily.blogspot.com/2012/11/thankful.html">2012</a> (though I'm pretty sure we did in 2011 and 2010??)<br />
<br />
this year i've very thankful for these 4 little people and a godly husband who is so passionate for the things of the Lord.......<br />

I look at a picture of her at 4 months or even 6-7 months and seriously feel like that was yesterday?!! It seems summer was over, and with back to school and all, boom......now it's October! She sure is one busy girl these days....who has time to be sentimental over her getting bigger??!! I can hardly find the time to fold a basket of laundry or put some dishes away! Because this girl is everywhere!!<br />

Loving the leap frog table.....she is at this thing constantly if we are in her room! Loves the coffee table in the living room too.....tries to take a few side to side steps (a.k.a. cruising) some too!<br />

She is very much on the move.....we can't take our eyes off her for a second! The upstairs is kinda nervewracking with our very steep staircase. I've caught her too close to it and now been putting up gates or shutting doors to keep her contained! And with wood and tile floors everywhere, poor thing has bumped that head many a times.<br />

We have a popped up bottom tooth finally in the past couple weeks. No wonder we had some really fussy and hard days over the past couple of weeks (though I believe that is in addition to some tummy troubles the poor girl has been having too). I still can't see the tooth but I do feel that sharp little edge popping up on her bottom gum!<br />

But for now, she is still 9 months! Maggie has probably changed the most this past month from 8-9 months! After waiting longer than ever before (with the other 3 children) she finally had her first taste of some real solid food at around 8 1/2 months. She seemed really ready and eager to taste and eat, so I figured it was time to let her try.<br />

our baby girl is growing faster by the minute! she is so full of life and happy most the time! we still haven't gotten that first tooth yet....so I'm sure it won't be long now. she is still loving her siblings, as long as they aren't too in her face; she is definitely starting some shyness, preference to mama often more than any other familiar adults....though she does light up and love her daddy! so thankful for our maggie starks......loving each new phase she enters into....just wishing we could slow the progression down just a little. but enjoying every moment and love watching her explore the world around her!<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">Waking up to have her chocolate birthday doughnut....of course you have to blow your candle not only on your cake but your doughnut too! She is very intently blowing that candle out!</span><br />
<br />
So several weeks ago (well I guess really it's been a month now) our baby girl turned 4 years old!! How is she 4?! I think we did our best and easiest party ever.....thanks to some sweet friends we were able to host a family get together at their pool and basically have the place to ourselves! It was like a private party! She had the best time, as did all who came. We kept it small with just a few of her sweet little buddies......they barely came out of the water to eat and sing happy birthday with her cake and ice cream! Too bad all our birthdays aren't summer birthdays....b/c I think I'd seriously do this for them all!<br />

8 months of this sweet thing! How has it been 8 months?!! She is growing by the minute I do believe!<br />
She is pushing up on her hands and sometimes on her knees. She often pushes herself with her hands or rolls and we find her under something or on different spot on the floor from where we left her.......guess she's been doing this for the past month now. No real crawling yet....but I know it's only a matter of time and this girl will be on the move!<br />

(since it was july...we had 2 more months before reed even turned 3 years old?!!) crazy yes....but obviously the Lord's will and plan for our family!<br />

we survived....and 5 months later this was our life......yes the 19 month old is trying to step on the 5 month old.....God gave us grace, much grace! grace towards each other in our marriage, with our children; and it was by Him we persevered!<br />

This little girl continues to be so much fun.....and seriously the easiest baby! Hmmmm wondering if we'll have a different toddler?? Well, regardless......at 7 months she......<br />
<br />
**sleeps so good! 2 and sometimes 3 naps a day still<br />
**so I'm experimenting......still no solids yet.......she's happy and full and obviously gaining very good weight, so really with our crazy, busy life I'm in no dire need to spoon feed mushy baby food if I don't have to!<br />
**she's rolling both directions from belly to back and now back to belly.....starting to push up some with her arms. I once saw it look like she was attempting to be on all 4s....but we still aren't there yet<br />
**still needs support when sitting....so haven't mastered that skill either<br />
**is vocal, vocal, vocal! this baby is a chatter box! she loves to yell....it's so funny how loud she can be. and she definitely always is chimming in during our morning bible story reading. the big kids are always saying they can't hear<br />
**gets so excited when she sees any of us....me, casey, siblings....it's so cute! she just smiles and laughs at everyone<br />
**love those sweet little giggles! man can't get enough of them!<br />
<br />

So in June <a href="http://thecwillisfamily.blogspot.com/2009/06/what-weve-been-up-to.html">2009</a> we began our annual strawberry picking at Boyd's Orchard. The kids have always loved and we love the fresh and yummy strawberries! Last year with the dry weather the crops were never very good so we didn't get to go. But we made up and went this year! </div>

<br />
So also earlier in June we wrapped up our 2nd season of tee ball....well last year was actually "wee ball"......and next year will be coach's pitch if he wants to play again. Which I'm sure he will because this boy is all athlete! He continues to love all sports! He had fun playing......we didn't have the greatest team as I think they only won 2 games the entire season, but learning the game and having a good time is all that matters!<br />

her tear duct on the right eye appears to have cleared up in the past couple weeks too. i realized over a week ago it wasn't draining and needing constant wiping. so shortly after turning 6 months (may 30th) it must have finally grown more and quit draining as it had been the past 6 months.</div>

So many new fun things happening with this big girl! She is definitely giving us more sleep! She is consistently going 7-8 hours at night (at 4 months it was still on and off--but I would definitely say it's a consistent thing now)......she smiles and laughs all the time! She is just such a happy, happy girl!<br />

Trying to savor all these moments is hard some days.....I don't want to look back and think I really missed them! Off to go savor my babies!<br />

Can't believe this precious little girl is 5 months old!! It's May 2nd so we've officially been 5 months for the past two days......although I'm too tired to download the camera and more recent pics here is a cute one from a couple weeks ago. Love our little Maggie so much! I'll document more soon on how much she's growing and changing!Ericahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16865038803978653868noreply@blogger.com0
