What a great way to spend our Sunday! We laid on the grass and had lunch with our friends Tessa, Brian and their baby, Cormac. Cormac and Maya like each other a lot and they are becoming good friends. It is very cute to see them smiling at each other.

Que linda manera de pasar el Domingo! tirados en el pasto de cara al sol con nuestros amigos Tessa, Brian y su bebe Cormac. Maya y Cormac se divierten mucho, intercambian sonrisas y se estan haciendo muy buenos amigos; es muy dulce verlos juntos.

Saturday in the park. We walked around the lake and we looked at the geese. We also went on a train ride and we thought of papa Donald who loves trains. Like papa Donald always says, "you have to start them early"

El Sabado fuimos al parque. Caminamos alrededor del lago y miramos los gansos. Tambien anduvimos en el trencito y nos recordamos del abuelo Donald, a quien le encanta los trenes.

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.

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.
