Milestones

Thanks to the help of my WONDERFUL sister-in-law, Tara, I'm officially starting a blog! However, because I take a billion pictures of my 'little punkin' I have decided to start the blog from this point forward (it would take way to much time to write posts and include pictures for everything leading up to this point!)  That said, I will put some pictures up of her "firsts" to get everyone up to speed!

 Maree Michelle Poortinga 10/2/11 - Had to show a picture of her at birth to show just how much she has changed!

      First time with Nana & Grumpa - 10/2/11

First time seeing Grandpa & Grandma Gallinger - 10/27/11

First hike was on Thanksgiving Day 2011 (1.5 months old) - She did fantastic until we got to the top - then she decided she was hungry & wanted the whole mountain to know it

First roll over at 7 weeks (front to back)

First MAJOR spit up picture... so many, many more to follow - Notice it is not just on his shirt, but the floor too!

First time meeting cousin Madeline! (1 month & 6 months)

First time meeting cousins Anna & Caylee! Anna 4, Caylee 2

First Christmas 2011

Maree started feeding herself just shy of her 5th month - this new skill is quite welcomed!! 

Maree's first swim was at 5 months with her friend Callie on March 12th - Love the little leg rolls!
