Disneyland!

Welcome to our happy place!

We had so much fun on our trip!  It was so fun that it was hard to come back home!  It was a great way to spend our 4th wedding anniversary and celebrate our family!  Get ready for a picture overload!

Disneyland:
Maya was a great little traveler, the weather was perfect and we had a blast!
In front of Sleeping Beauty's Castle and at the Entrance to Disneyland. 
Me, Maya (as Tinkerbell), and Dumbo.
Us with the Walt & Mickey statue, and ToonTown
Our all-time favorite pic!  Makes me cry!
We hoped to find Princess Tiana and there she was the first day - they loved each other!
Disneyland was all decorated for Halloween!
Pluto and Maya loved each other!  He came over to her and got her attention,
she was so excited -- and he was so cute, let Maya grab is nose and face!
Maya got all dressed up for the Princess Lunch -- it was a riot!  Maya could spot the
Princesses across the room and complained until they got to her - then she was happy!

Shopping Fun!  You can't go to Disneyland and not shop your heart out in the great stores for all of the fun Disney items!
Of course we had to get Maya her first set of Disney ears!

California Adventure:
Maya was a good little napper - I think we wore her out good each day!
Cars Land was AWESOME!  Looks straight out of the movie!

I love our little family!
There were a lot of rides Maya could get on!  Maya thought she owned the place!
Our little Sleeping Beauty had no idea that Donald Duck came to say 'hi' to her. 
All-in-all it was a perfect trip!  We can't wait to start planning our next visit to Disneyland!

Maya is 5 months old!

Can you believe this?!?  How can our tiny babe already be 5 months old?  Time is flying by!

Here's a little of what we've been up to ... and a little of what we've got planned! ;-)
1. Maya started eating cereal at 4 months (loves it) and baby food at 5 months (LOVES it)!  2. She has the BEST personality - super fun, loves to smile and is very easy going.  3. Doing well at tummy-time, has rolled over a bunch from her tummy to her back and prefers to sit straight up rather than leaning back.  4. Smiles all the time and sleeps 9-10 hours/night! -- she is one happy babe.  5. Maya's favorite part of the day is bath time!  6. Can't get enough of play time - not only is she cute, she's strong too!  
We really can't get enough of our sweet girl - our life has changed in the most amazing way with her!
I'm back to work part-time so Maya gets to spend a couple of days with two of her favorite people - Gram and Aunt Nan!

Maya got a special phone call to let her know some future plans for our little family (see the video below)!

We are so excited - we can't wait to show her the happiest place on earth!

Maya's Bedroom

We finished up Maya's bedroom - finally!  I was waiting on getting her picture to hang on her wall before I really considered it finished!
Maya's sitting in our favorite book-reading spot - our cozy rocking chair!
Brandon picked out her crib and Grandma Lorna made the cute bunting to match her bedding.
Her pink polka-dot curtains were a fun final touch to the room too!
She even has her own 'hidden Mickey' (and Minnie) above her closet.

Our baby girl is growing so fast!  She's one happy baby and Oh-So-Loved!

The Zoo! It's True!

Maya had her first trip to the zoo last week!  She really likes to be on the go so she sure did enjoy being outside, hanging with family, checking out the animals, and chillin'/napping in her stroller!

What a fun time!  Can't wait to bring our sweet girl back again when she's older!
