Ketchup for Dinner

Good Morning. What are we going to do today? Maybe we should ...

eat nothing but ketchup for dinner. It is so delicious. "mo' sauce" is how Maya would say it.

Let's eat our breakfast like a big girl - sitting in Daddy's chair (who wants a booster chair when you are a big girl?), eating out of a big girl bowl with a big girl spoon. When did she get so big?

Maya's toes!

Let's watch Dora in nothing but a diaper. Maya has been so specific in her television viewing. It must be Dora. She asks, "backpack?" to see if she can watch it. And she would watch all day long, episode after episode, if we let her.

TV Time

Can you believe I only took ONE picture of Maya this week? Here it is. What a funny girl.

Happy Halloween

Good night, sleep tight. Here's Maya hugging her favorite things - a book and her baby. Ready for bed with a big smile!

Don't ya just love her?

Halloween is not all fun, I guess. Here is Maya stressing out when we went trick-o-treating at my work. She just didn't want to stop for a photo, and I guess and it is stressful asking for candy.

Hi there! I'm a happy little spider!

All ready to go out and trick-o-treat! Ready, set, go!

Here's beautiful Maya ready for church!

Chick Flick

This girl just keeps movin' and keeping us hoppin'. She is the sweetest thing on the planet. This first picture is just to show off her eyelashes I guess, it was just such a cute shot I couldn't pass it up. And I love this second picture. I was in my room and she said, "up?" so I put her up on my bed and she climbed onto her little throne of pillows, pointed to the TV and said, "me?" (Which means movie). So here she is with her snacks and her movie.

Biker Babes

Look at this chick! She is growing up way too fast. She is such a funny kid. Sachin has been trying to get her to say "belly button" for a while. The other day he asked, "Where's your belly button?" She lifted up her shirt, pointed to her belly button and said, "Butty." Her new word. So cute. She will even try to lift up your shirt to see your "butty" if you'll let her.

We were going to go swimming yesterday, but we got to the pool and it had been closed for Special Olympics, so we couldn't go (luckily she's not old enough to realize that we were going swimming and get disappointed; she probably just thought we were going for a ride in our swimming suits - why not?) So instead of swimming we went for a bike ride. She doesn't really love the helmet, but once we get on the road she's okay and it is worth it. She had so much fun, saying, "wee" and clapping her hands and saying "cows" each time we passed the horses.

The Biker Babes.

Drama Queen

Look at my eight teeth. Don't look at my goopy nose.

I guess she prefers the boogers! This is a typical Maya face these days - the little princess being angry.

Always has to have a phone. She loves to talk on the phone.

Here she is at the zoo. She had so much fun looking at the animals.

Here is a little dancing video:

Can She Get Any Cuter??

Maya is really taking off with this walking things. Here she is on one of her first ventures out on the grass. She really hated the grass til she got the hang of it. What a cutey!

New pictures! Isn't she the most precious thing in the world? I take so many pictures of her and I almost can't bring myself to delete any of them - even the blurry ones. She is just so cute in each one.

This one is by far my favorite. She's saying, "What? What did I do?"

Our favorite game is Peek-A-Boo. What a crazy kid. How do you like the chocolate all over her face? I especially like the messy chocolately eye brows.

Here comes the sun!
