Attempted home invasion
Maya and I were hanging out out the couch a couple of weeks ago and heard something behind us at the window. This video is what we saw when we turned around. Maya was squealing in horror, or amusement, probably the latter.
Catch up
I'm slacking on blogging again as you may have noticed. The days have been short and the nights long. Maya is still working on one to four upper teeth. I never thought that three hours straight of sleep straight would feel so refreshing. I have been trying to get a papers left over from grad school finished up. I've spent more hours than I would like at the dmv the past two weeks. There is a never ending pile of laundry to be done. And we haven't even started Christmas shopping yet. So that's my excuse for not blogging.
Maya is generally a lot of fun these days. She is once again waving and saying hi hi, generally in a whisper. She just started repeating who. It's extra hilarious because she's so proud of herself when she does it. And when she amuses herself she looks up and snorts. This last week she's also started say nana and mama sounds. Before it was always dada. I'm not sure she uses them correctly because she says them all the time but she seems to know who mama and dada are. If you ask she will often look and point. Meal time has been hit or miss since she's been sick and teething. I think she just prefers to feed herself. She easily picks up puffs and cheerios but still refuses to try anything not crunchy. She will sometimes let us feed her purees or other soft things. She will usually let me feed her anything off of my plate with a fork. I bought some little squeezy pouches of carrot apple sauce that she can eat with minimal help. She loves them. She recently started signing all done when she wants out of her high chair. She is getting more steady on her feet. She can stand without holding on but she doesn't feel secure doing it. She does like to hold onto our hands and walk around to kick things.
I realized that I never posted her nine month with her owl stickers so here those are.
Also here is a funny Thanksgiving one that I meant to post. Mostly she just poked it, trying to figure out what it is.
Monday, Maya and I tried to get a photo for Christmas cards, not an easy feat these days. She was not impressed. She refused to smile
She preferred to make faces like this

| I do love her ear curls in this one though |
or this
Or she refused to look at the camera at all
Right after this photo was taken, one of these ornaments meet an untimely end and that was the end of our pictures for the day.
