We were installing new light fixtures in our bathroom last week and Maya wanted to help.
She kept pulling up on the ladder to try and climb to Daddy.
Baby was too much help, she got banished to the tub with her new T-Rex from her Dad.
Here’s baby girl driving her little car around with Nanny/Auntie Kaitlin on Friday, getting all geared up for her trip to Des Moines to see Grandma Jacobsen and Uncle Brandon.
Here we all are having lunch downtown at Spaghetti Works.
M loves her Grandma!
Maya had her 1st haircut last week. Ms. Leslie did a good job. She gave Maya a toy to distract her while she made a few snips.
Yes, of course we saved some of the hair.
The final touches…
No more frizzies!
Head: 17 1/2 (50%)
Height: 29 1/2 in. (93%)
Weight: 22lbs (90%)
We had a great trip to the doctor this morning. Maya got 2 shots and a finger prick with no tears! Her height and weight have slowed down a bit (used to be in 95% for both). Her favorite part was playing with the noisy paper on the table.
We met Grandma Rosie for breakfast after the appointment. Maya had some banana’s, cantaloupe, quiche & pancakes. Well mostly she played with the food and mushed it into her pretty pink dress, but a little got in the belly!
Maya greeted the people who passed by on the sidewalk with a nice smile hoping they notice what a big girl she is standing up to play with the flowers.
We went to the old house to water the plants today, so Maya got to take a ride in her swing.
Maya and I had the best Wednesday I could ask for. She has been a snuggler all day long and just generally a happy girl. We went on several errands and played a lot today. It was one of those days that makes you feel all warm and tingly realizing that this is what its all about. These moments. She has grown so fast, I cannot believe its almost been a year. The best year of my life and I’m so so grateful for our amazing little family.
Saturday, Maya turned 9 months old! We go to the doctor on Wednesday and will post the stats then.
Saturday night we went to my friend Denise’s wedding at Club 1000. It was beautiful and fun to hang out with my bible study girlfriends.
