2.5 months

Between our Mommy groups, walks (just trying to get out of the house some days), visitors and sleeping, eating etc we have been pretty busy and having a good time. Here are a couple recent photos of little Maya Rose.

rollin'

Maya is rolling over! Ive seen her do it a few times but this morning she rolled over each time I put her on her tummy and we were able to get the camera.
We are hanging in there with shorter naps during the day (our little one is fighting sleep just like her Mama and Pops) and still surviving pretty well with a stretch of about 5 hours at night. Maya is chatting up a storm and her smile just seems to get cuter ever day. I honestly, at times, just cant stop kissing her. Loving the Maya love-fest....

2 months!

8 weeks! What?... Time really is flying by. Here are some more photos and a video...
A few tid bits about life with our little lady;
- Her first tear fell... I kissed it off her little cheek. She is also starting to have a little pouty bottom lip while crying. It just breaks my heart..
- We are busy with mommy groups and new baby pals. If we could catch a break with the rain I would be on more long walks with her. She and I both love them.
- Maya is really strong. Her neck control is really good and she actually likes tummy time!
- Josh and I had another date (lunch and a movie!)
- I got out on my own for tea for the 1st time- Maya hung with Daddy & they have more Daddy/Daughter dates on the calendar
- Maya is more aware and alert every day. She is taking much shorter naps during the day and is trying to sleep a bit more at night (we're routing for her!)

Our hearts are just bursting with love for our little lady. She is just so cool!

hanging with maya

Hanging with Maya is the coolest! I am actually spending the day at home with her and am happy to have a little down with my little lady. We've been pretty busy and every day we're learning, growing and getting the swing of things. She is continuing to give us smiles & is finding her voice with cooing. Above are a few of our most recent photos of little Miss Maya. XO

we're having fun

Maya is just turning 6 weeks (tomorrow) and we're havin a good time. Highlights of this past week include: Josh & I got to go on a little mini date and Maya is starting to coo and smile! We also had some new Mom pals over this week and Maya & cousin Romi got to play together, too. I can hardly believe its been 6 weeks! This week, Oma and Gramps (my Mom & Pops) are coming back up for a visit. We are looking forward to it!

shout out to the ladies

Sarah was here this weekend and it was amazing to see her. All the ladies (the ol college crew) came together at our house on Friday night for some hang, help-liz and food time. It was nice to have us all together & I really appreciated all the help. Sarah and Jess, the master organizers, whipped our house into shape on Sat and did everything from laundry, cooking, organizing and even watched little Maya while I had some pampering done at the nail shop! Shout out to the ladies and esp. Sarah for making the trip down here to meet Maya Rose. Girl Friends rule!

Maya is doing well. She is now turning the corner on 5 weeks and is still eating, pooping and sleeping. We are making it out to do some errands and to a Mom's group and we are still lucky to have lots of visitors. Josh & I are so in love with her & working out all the details of being new parents day by day.
