13 months

We've been having a lot of fun this last month! Maya is really growing into her own little person as she moves past the one year mark. She is still not walking, but is getting close. One of her favorite things to do is to be on the "phone." She will use anything she can as a phone - her hand, a book, the remote control, a towel, etc. She just puts whatever it is up to her ear and says "hello!"

This month has been busy! First, at the end of August, we got a chance to celebrate Maya's first birthday in California. We had a great time, and everyone really enjoyed seeing Maya.

While in California, we took a few days a drove up the coast to a little town called Los Olivos. We spent two days there and enjoyed the great weather, as well as some wine tasting.

We also got to spend a few hours at the beach. Maya loved it just as much as she did when we were in Ocean City!



And of course, we had a big birthday celebration!


I didn't really eat my cake, but I enjoyed smashing it!


Loving my Gap gift card!


Looking pretty in my dress that Grammy made!

Finally, Maya did a pretty good job on the plane. Luckily, on the way home, we had a row just for us, so it gave us a bit more of that needed space!

Right after coming back from California, Maya started at a new daycare. It took her a few days to adjust, but she seems to like it and is doing well. Stay tuned for new adventures to come!
