Christmas 2009
This holiday season has been a real treat for the Baca family. Thank you to Ellis and Baca families for making Christmas day so special for Maggie. Thanks also to Marissa and John for hosting the family on 12/26. We had a great time as always.

We wish you and yours a safe and happy New Year. See you in 2010!
Maggie’s First Snow
A decent storm blew threw Arizona last weekend. Flagstaff got up to 2 feet of snow. That doesn’t happen very often here, so we took advantage of the opportunity and took Maggie to see her first snow.
She was a bit apprehensive at first. The combination of 28 degree temperature and white-blanketed landscape must be disorienting at first. Debra and I kept stumbling and sinking into the snow. Every time this happened Maggie got upset. Eventually she warmed up to the situation and did seem to enjoy watching Daddy make a snow angel.

November Update
First things first. For those of you who haven’t heard via the grapevine, we’re 12 weeks pregnant! The baby is due end of May. Debra had her 12 week exam yesterday and the baby was moving all over the place.
Maggie has been walking for about a week now. It is so entertaining to see her chase one of the animals or watch her walking room to room. Of course now she’s into pretty much everything.
Debra is busy as ever with Maggie and her habilitation work. I have been taking advantage of the cooler weather and working on our landscaping. With any luck we will have a complete garden, dog run and patio by Summer.
Maggie Walks
Last night we were enjoying a few post-dinner The Office episodes. Maggie was entertaining herself chasing the cat and reading her books. She made her way to the play mat in front of the couch and decided to WALK to Mommy instead of the usual crawling! We were so proud.
Park In November
Wow, it’s been over a month since our last post. All is well. Maggie is standing, walking (almost) and chatting up a storm. When asked, “Where is Daddy’s ear?”, she will happily show me then attempt to rip it off my head.
This weekend we took Maggie to the park by our house. We decided to let her walk part of the way using her little walker. She walked the entire stretch! She was so cute waddling along, watching the tress and houses as she strolled.
Of course she was tuckered out after the park visit and preferred to ride in the walker instead of pushing it.
