February

Until two years ago, February was my least favorite month. Then two years ago on February 25 we finally wrapped our arms around the sweet girl that we had already wrapped our hearts around and now I feel a little differently about February. Still, it is cold and dark and I am SO tired of the cold and dark. But just thinking of our great fortune to be blessed with Maya does warm me and she is for sure, the light shining through any darkness!
I Love Maya in motion in this pic. She was dancing in circles.

I never thought I would see the day when this girl would actually ask to have her picture taken. She asked for this picture with her giraffe and her critters.

I have had Maya's picture taken at a studio one time. It was in May 07. We got a few good pics but over all it wasn't all that. I thought I would give it another try. Mom made Maya this super cute little dress and I wanted her pics in it. So I made an appointment and we talked about it for days before going. She looked so beautiful in that cute little dress and her cute little curly hair. See this picture that I took? That's all we have. The portrait studio was a complete failure and a serious aggravation! I'll just say I left there steaming. Maya still has some of her favorite things taken away because of this little incident.

She does love some spaghetti.

Does anyone else's refrigerator look like that?

Happy Valentines Day!

Happy Valentines Day again!

Where's Maya?

Why, she's playing with my Ipod, of course. But not anymore. At least until I get a good picture...

Maggie was really interested in Maya's block tower until it fell over.

We do a Mom and Me gymnastics class. They have blast!

Maya's first attempt at the big rope swing.

Our ice skating rink has "Totcicles" skating on Friday mornings. We've been trying to get to that when we can. It's great because they don't have to wear skates unless they want to. They keep the ice rough so it's not slippery at all.

Klaire went with us a few weeks ago.



I have been consumed by vampire books these days. I'm almost finished with the last vampire book so hopefully I won't be so late getting my March post up.
