Today we drove to Mount Ulla for church so that Tyler could preach for a pastor that was out of town. After church we decided to hit McDonalds for a quick lunch before heading back to Charlotte for naps. Maggie is a big fan of Mickey D's and after we announced that we would be going there for lunch our conversation went a little like this...
Tyler: Would you like to go to McDonalds for lunch?
Maggie: Yes! (said with much enthusiasm)
Tyler: Ok well we're going to go.
Maggie: Daddy you a bum.
Tyler: umm what?
-Pause-
Carrie: Maggie did you say Daddy is a bum?
Maggie: no...a bum
Carrie: (I have a light bulb moment bc we used a similar phrase yesterday) Ohh....do you mean Daddy is the bomb?
Maggie: yes!!! Daddy you a bum.

accessorizing
Maggie is really into dressing up these days and she has gotten very creative with it. Today she put some big foamy puzzle pieces around her neck and declared them her necklace. As if that wasn't cute enough...
This little guy crawled into the kitchen where I was with some "necklaces" of his own. I'm sure if he could talk he'd be thanking his big sister for helping him look so good.

Sunday Fun
Last Sunday we headed to Columbia to visit with family at Grandma Dot's house. It was a monumental day for Henry as he took his first steps with Uncle John. We got to visit with some of our Texas family members too. And we got to see how much baby Trooper had grown in just two weeks (sadly no pics). 
At the end of the evening Maggie tried out for the family band using her mad harmonica skills.
We are such a close family that we don't even have to call each other to coordinate wearing matching orange shirts.

Baby Boy for Big Brother
Congratulations Peter and Megan!
My big brother Peter and my sister in law Megan welcomed their first baby into the world last tuesday, Glenn Peter Zaepfel III "Trooper". They couldn't have planned his arrival better (for me anywas). I was planning on making a trip to Columbia on wednesday because Tyler was headed to Atlanta for an RUF conference. When we heard Trooper was on his way we decided to leave tuesday night instead so we could meet this little man ASAP! Well, so I could meet this little guy a.s.a.p, cousin introductions took place the following day. With Trooper joining the "Zaepfel" clan the grandbaby tally for my folks is now four under two with one on the way. My parents are in grandparent heaven. The Lord is so so good!
Me, My brother Peter and sister Christine and sweet little Trooper.
I think he really looks like my brother in this picture. I wish I had a baby picture to post of Peter they look a lot alike in this particular picture. Don't you think mom?
The chaotic cousin introductions. Megan and Peter were good sports as we piled all the kids into their tiny hospital room to meet Trooper.
Trooper is in the nursery behind the proud grandparents. He was being given the royal treatment as he was the only one in the nursery. From left to right, Megan's dad Brent, Poppa, Grandma and Grandma Dot.
