5.5 months old..Happy Easter!

Dear Maya-TT (Two Teeth!),

you are soooo busy now that we are learning how to entertain you.
So, on Tuesday mornings, Maria takes you to a music and story time class at the Stella Link library, and she may start taking you to one on Thursday as well.
Mummy and Daddy also want to take you to one at the Motherhood Center, and so we went to a trial class for this, this past weekend, and got to see you in action.

At first you were wisely apprehensive..
(a shoutout to Auntie Oneeka for this beautiful Easter weekend dress)


(this is the insy winsy spider song, in case you wonder what Daddy's doing)

And then boom, all of a sudden you were moving and shaking..

And so Mummy had to switch to video to capture the moments..

You were really into in for about 20 mins..then held on for a few more..and then Mummy took you for a walk before coming back for the grand finale!


All in all a very exciting 45 minutes.  I think we'll keep you in the (free) library classes for the next couple of months, and you'll be more than ready for the Motherhood Center (not free) course starting in June.

Since it was Easter and Spring, I also took some nature pictures of you.. and your "new" (craigslist) big-girl stroller.  You are fairly adamant about sitting up and smelling the flowers nowadays.



I keep trying to capture your TWO teeth on camera, but you're too fast for me.  So I get lots of closeups like this: (cute, but no teeth).
You now eat (taste really) sweet potato, carrot, avocado pear, fruit pear, apple, banana.. and this week you have some beets with english potato and mango on the menu.  Really we try to give you some of whatever we're having as you are very curious.  You've even had some sips of water because you want to drink out of a cup like we do.

Just exploring everything..
