Maya | 11 months

I cannot believe Maya will be ONE…in A WEEK!!!

How did that happen?

In the last month before she turns one, she…

  • Is pretty consistent with “give me five”!  She gets so excited when she does it 🙂
  • Was sooooo close to crawling.  Can reach pretty far for a toy in the extended crawl reach  (48 weeks)
  • Said “No.  Don’t do that.” after throwing her veggies overboard for the 3rd time~with me saying that to her each time. (49 weeks)
  • Got up on all fours…didn’t move though. Next day scooted.  Next day CRAWLED!!   Yup, she’s my child.  Took her a while, then bam! (49 weeks)
  • Says “Thank you” Not consistently though.  More mimics when we give things back and forth to each other.
  • Kind of signed “more”
  • Finally learned to get to the sitting position on her own (50 weeks)
  • For the next 3 days she skipped her afternoon nap.  She was so excited about sitting up.  She’d do it and then couldn’t lay back down…
  • Loves saying “DA-DOH” in the cutest high pitch voice.
  • LOVES to dance!

OMG, I love that little nugget… I think it’s literally impossible to not want to squeeze her!

Here she is scooting.  And…checking out the muffins in the oven.ON THE MOVE!I usually take a bazillion pics with my phone at bath time, but braved bringing the real camera in.  Her OPO was in town 🙂

Just one of her many funny faces.  She looooves bath time!

It’s rare that Houston lets me take his picture, but I love this one…

And lastly…these three pics completely sum up where she is right now.

Pensive.  Dancing/Happy.  Crawling.

Love you Peanut!

Mom
