MAYA IS CLIMBING EVERY WHERE ON EVERYTHING NOW. OH, THE FUN OF TODDLERHOOD.
HEY LAYLA, I GOT TO THE TOP AND NOW I AM GOING BACK DOWN. THANKS FOR YOUR ADVICE.
SHE REALLY HAD A HARD TIME WALKING IN THE ROCKS.
SHE IS DIGGING A HOLE IN THE ROCKS HERE.
MOM, I AM TRYING TO WRITE. MUST YOU TAKE SO MANY PICTURES.
YEP, CLIMBING AGAIN.
SHE WAS PUTTING ROCKS THROUGH THE HOLES.
HAVING A LITTLE TROUBLE GETTING UP HERE.

ME AND MAYA DECIDED TO BUNDLE UP AND GO TO THE PARK TODAY. IT HAS GOTTEN REALLY COLD AGAIN. YES DAWN, WE ARE STILL WEARING ONLY SWEATSHIRTS. HOWEVER, THAT IS COLD TO US. MAYA IS CLIMBING EVERYWHERE. I JUST LOVE CHASING HER. I AM LOVING THIS GIRL MORE AND MORE EVERYDAY. SHE IS PURE JOY!!! OH AND WE ARE GOING TO HAVE A FRONT TOOTH FOR CHRISTMAS. IT BROKE THROUGH TODAY.

NATURAL BORN STAR!!!

THE NURSERY AT CHURCH SANG AND PLAYED BELLS THIS MORNING. MAYA WASN'T VERY EXCITED ABOUT IT. SO I HAD TO WALK UP THERE WITH HER. THAT THRILLED ME. SHE DID SHAKE HER BELL WITH A LITTLE HELP FROM ME. THE PICTURES DIDN'T DO VERY GOOD. AT LEAST I WAS ABLE TO GET A FEW.

CHRISTMAS ON 5TH STREET!!!

CHRIS RICE IN CONCERT!!!
CHRIS RICE LIVE IN WACO, TX
THIS WAS MAYA'S FIRST CONCERT. SHE WAS HAVING SO MUCH FUN!! SHE CLAP ON EVERY SONG AND WAS SCREAMING FOR HIM.
SHE IS WORSHIPPING WITH THE MUSIC.
THIS WAS CARRIAGE AT THE EVENT. WE DIDN'T GET TO RIDE IT, THE LINE WAS WAY TO LONG AND IT WAS GETTING LATE.

MAYA WAS SO SCARED OF THIS CAMEL. SHE JUST CRIED HER LITTLE HEART OUT.
LIVE NATIVITY. THIS WAS NEAT. THEY WERE PLAYING SONGS AND TOLD THE CHRISTMAS STORY.
SHE WASN'T REAL SURE ABOUT THIS REINDEER.
MOMMY AND MAYA ENJOYING THE CONCERT.

I LOVE THIS LITTLE GOWN THAT I GOT MAYA THE OTHER DAY. I CALL IT HER GRANDMA GOWN. SHE IS NOT VERY FOND OF IT. SHE PULLS AT IT ALL THE TIME. SHE IS DOING GREAT WITHOUT THE BOTTLE. ONLY SLEEPING ABOUT 10 HOURS A NIGHT INSTEAD OF 12 BUT SHE TOOK A 2 HOUR NAP TODAY. THAT WAS GOOD FOR BOTH OF US. WELL, I AM OFF TO WORK THEN I AM OFF FOR 3 DAYS.
