Maggie Mayhem

A few months ago Brendon and I saw "Whip It", a movie about roller derby. One of the characters was named "Maggie Mayhem". We've bestowed this nickname upon Maggie, for the destruction she sometimes leaves in her path.

Maggie likes plundering in the kitchen. Don't worry- we've childproofed! She's allowed to go in certain drawers and cabinets, which helps keep her occupied while I cook or clean up in the kitchen. It can get pretty messy, though. . .

Notice the snow boots again!


Maggie can count from 1 to 6 now (I need to get this on tape- it is so cute)! After she spread out all the measuring cups, she started counting them, and sure enough, there are 6! (She doesn't consistently have one-to-one correspondence when counting, but this time it happened to work out.)

After emptying out one side of the cabinet, Maggie climbed in it.


It was entertaining to watch Maggie play. I even turned on the web-cam on my laptop so that Brendon could see her from work! When Maggie was finished playing, she stacked some of the bowls, but I still had a big job straightening up the cabinet during her nap time!

You and Maggie sure keep yourselves busy during the day! Looks like she is having a lot of fun.

This was one of her daddy's favorite activities also - emptying the kitchen cabinets.
