PAPA HUGO has come to visit us in California for 2 months!! We've been having so much fun playing with Maya, that we forgot to update the blog. More videos and photos coming soon...



Hugo sees the Pacific for the first time!


Here is a video from Weaver's Winter Wonderland in Rohnert Park. The Weaver family turns their house into a mini Disneyland for the holidays! All of the characters are made of wood and hand painted. They started doing this in 1994 and add more to it every year. More photos at: http://www.weavers-winterwonderland.com

We had a pre-birthday celebration for Maya today with the "Rookie Moms & Dads". Maya loved playing with all of her little friends. She particularly liked the impromptu music jam session!








Mommy made an awesome cake!



Chocolate -- the cornerstone of any nutritious meal!

I went with Mommy and Daddy to Los Angeles for Thanksgiving. It was hell being strapped into the car seat for so many hours, but well worth the fun once I was there. Here are some memories from my first Thanksgiving!

Resting at Grandma Adi's house after a long weekend with lots of good food and so many yakking relatives!

Here I am hanging out with Ethan, Lily, and Olivia at Papa's house.





Papa had an awesome Playmobil train that went from his bedroom, down 2 long hallways and into to the living room!





We had a great Thanksgiving dinner at Susan and Alan's house. All of my buddies were there -- Sammy, AJ, Lily and Olivia. The food was great. I got to taste turkey for the first time. My favorite food was the mashed potatoes! Daddy said that his favorite food there was uncle Mark's homemade chocolate chip cookies... he didn't let me try those, though.

AJ and Olivia loved all the great food!


Playing "missela-mosola" (not sure of the yiddish spelling?) with Great Grandma Lu

I love my Tia Phoebe.

Grandma Adi showed me how to rock my baby Florencia to sleep.

A little light entertainment...
