Maya on the swing!

Yet another video - because words can't capture this well enough!

Video OVERLOAD!!

It's a little bit of a video overload, but I couldn't pick just one...

Here is Maya enjoying some banana like a big girl and showing off her current "tricks":

Here we are clapping and playing with our music table from Meemom:

And last but not least, here we are finding our big brother HYSTERICAL!!!! Best belly laughs ever.

Quote from Alex

"Mommy, today we had art class, and we made a penguin.. and mine is named Chilly, and he has BLUE FEET!"

There are just some things I don't want to forget. I will edit with a picture of Chilly when he comes home.

Growing too fast...

I don't know what to do with maya growing so fast. She's pulling herself up to stand, crawling absolutely everywhere, eating a ton, pulling things off shelves, waving hi, and clapping. She is only 8 months old - I need time to slow down!!

She loves to pull the DVDs off the rack (which we fondly remember Alex doing - in fact, we realized we still have the same DVD rack as we did years ago).

She is completely content playing on the floor for long periods of time. And if she hears music she starts to dance - she even got her groove on in the grocery store this morning.

Here is maya dancing and clapping with Elmo:

Maya completely content playing:

Maya's first snow - she didn't do much playing, but big brother did a lot of sledding!
