Maya-isms

I have so much to talk about still from the month of August, but I really wanted to blog about some of the fun things Maya says and does at this age.

Maya is 29 months old (almost 2 1/2)

Maya is a joy!

She is all girl!
Her favorite color is pink and she loves her babies!

Her favorite thing to watch is a "Go Fish" DVD and this is also her favorite thing to listen too, everyday she says " mom i wanna watch gofish"

She loves loves loves the water, in fact she can kind of already swim. She will go underwater for long periods of time and hold her breath, and nothing scares her. Parents always act amazed when they see her at the pool, I am in fact amazed myself.

She is miss independent always saying " I do it myself" with everything!! The other day she was adamant that I not hold her while she went potty, so I let go, and SPLASH, she fell in!

Maya's hair is always a topic of conversation. I do love all of her hair, blond curls, so sweet and cute, it is one of my favorite things as a mother, to be able to do my daughters hair and put cute clippies in it!! However, sometimes it is very hard to do, lots of hair + snarls +a 2 year old = a big fit. Sometimes Maya will be running away from me crying as I try to brush her hair saying "no brush mommy, no brush" Brett actually does Maya's hair a lot, he blow dries it after bath time and I have to admit, he does a really good job.

Maya has actually never had her hair cut, not once.

Every night after Maya goes to bed I go check on her and watch her sleep, every night!! I don't think I have missed a day. I love watching her sleep.

Maya has so many fun quotes:

"my pants are falling down, I need a seat belt"
"mommy, is Taco Bell dog poop?"
" I gotta go poops"
" go away daddy"
" I don't like him, he's bad"
when I sneeze Maya says "bless you mommy"

when maya does something good sometimes she says " i get a lollipop?!" and sometimes she does..... :O)
I took Maya to her first gourmet cupcake shop and she had no hesitations


Maya is definitely a mommies girl, sometimes she won't even let daddy hand her something as simple as milk, she insists "no daddy, Mommy do that!!


But she is getting better and loving daddy more...

Maya is my happy girl, she loves life and people and she is God's gift!
