Maya in her crib. Since 5/25 she got on her hands and knees and started rocking. Also, she started grabbing things and vigorously shaking them, like she does with her poor monkey. Her monkey is one of her favorite toys. Thanks aunt Cathie for this present!
Another new thing is to scream at the top of her lungs when she is very happy; she discovered she has a voice. She usually loves to do this at 5:30 am, just to make sure mommy and daddy are awake. Oh our rooster baby!

Maya en su cuna. Desde el 25/5 Maya se pone en cuatro "patas" y se mece para atras y adelante. Ademas comenzo a agarrar cosas y a sacudirlas vigorosamente,como puede apreciarse en el video, pobre mono! Este mono es uno de sus juguetes favoritos. Gracias Tia Cathie por este regalito!
Otro descubrimiento es su voz. Unas de sus actividades favoritas es gritar a puro pulmon a las 5:30 am, solo para asegurarse que mami y papi estan despiertos.

Some photos from our Memorial Day party. It was great to have all of our friends in one place!

Fotos de nuestra fiesta en Memorial Day. Fue buenisimo tener a todos nuestros amigos reunidos.

Tio Alan visited us and we went to a reserve. Maya was, as usual, too busy to simile because she was very interested in her surroundings.

Nos visito el Tio Alan y fuimos a una reserva. Como es su costumbre, Maya no sonrie mucho cuando esta ocupada descubriendo y observando sus alrededores.

May 20th

Maya is moving all over the place. Between rolling and "crawling" backwards she gets to places.

Maya comenzo a moverse hacia todos lados. Entre rodando y "gateando" hacia atras logra desplazarse de un lugar al otro.

Cuddling with daddy on the couch.

May13th, 1st Mothers Day. Daddy made mommy a wonderful breakfast and broth her this amazing wild California poppies.

El primer dia de la madre. Papa hizo un desayuno exquisito y trajo amapolas californianas silvestres para mama.

Today we took Maya out to see the coastal redwood forests. She really liked to watch the giant trees towering above her as we pushed her stroller down the trail.

Hoy llevamos a la pequena biologa/ecologa Maya al bosque de Sequoias (redwoods) Con sus ojos muy grandes miraba a estos inmensos arboles (aprox. 100 m de altura) Seguramente en su cabecita estara formulando nuevas preguntas e hipotesis para sus futuras investigaciones, jajajaja.
