I am fascinated by language development and think it is just the coolest thing to hear Maya say new words. "Bapple," and "Cacker" are two of my favorites and I secretly hope that she mispronounces them forever. She is still adding new signs as well ("octopus" and "shark" are just too cute) and shes combining signing and talking, too. Yesterday, she took her bear's arm and was lifting it up and saying "booooo" and then giving me the sign for "help." I realized that what she wanted was for me to do peek-a-boo with the bear. So fun!
Here are some pics from the past couple weeks-

1/2 marathon
I did it. It wasn't easy but it was worth it. 13.1 miles just outside of Portland, OR. I hung with Sarah & her family for the weekend & Sat morning we ran the Hippy Chick half marathon. Sarah's friend Carly was there too....here are a couple photos from the event. I dont plan on running that far again any time soon but it was good to put in the effort and get back on the workout plan again!
