Maggie enjoys, with great interest, following GeGe to his baseball activities and watched his first game on Saturday. On Sunday we went for our first family swim (sorry--forgot the camera but will bring it next time). She wasn't too sure about getting naked, putting on a swimsuit and then walking across the wet concrete, but she loved the water once we got in. I think we may have another swimmer in the family! Sebbie is participating in an all-comers swim meet this Friday, so the whole family will go to that.
A full week of school for Sebbie meant shorter naps for Maggie but also many trips to the school play park. When Mommy goes off to work and Sebbie goes off to school, she keeps a pretty close eye on Daddy--just so he doesn't disappear! Luckily he has been able to work from home and does a great job of juggling things. She absolutely loves when visitors stop by the house and likes to show them what she can do and the things she has. Turns out she LOVES to talk on the phone (see below).
Last week, Maggie had her check up with Dr. Pat (our good friend and pediatrician). She passed her TB test and, so far, there are no really bad results on the various other tests she had (more results to come still, though). We have our first appointment with Shriner's Hospital in Portland on May 15th. This appointment is the starting point for developing a master plan for how to proceed with her cleft palate and lip.
We are aiming to create a new post once a week for a while, so stop back in if you want to see what we are up to. (:

We had a great time meeting Didi last weekend! Kate is far more willing to put old clothes into a hand-me-down box because she says "it's for Maggie Xudi". We'll have to get those two together again, because they were very sweet with each other.
Hugs, the Lovtangs
Glad your family made it home in good shape. The videos are great. Love Maggie's one-sided telephone conversation. When Emma came home at the age of 18 months I loved listening to her exotic babblings, with vowel sounds I'd never heard before. Your blog is wonderful -- and thanks for your nice facebook message, Steve.
