The Tenth Week

April 26

Maya is nine weeks old.  She is finally growing out of a lot of her newborn clothes.  Fortunately, some of the pants still fit.  She only has 1 pair of 0-3 and they are still too big.  We did our usual weekly photo session today.  She was not impressed and she wasn't shy about letting me know.  She's still a cutie.

Maya and I survived our first week on our own.  And Derek survived his first week away from us.  Today was Derek's birthday.  Maya and I made him a cake.  It turned out a lot better than my birthday cake did.

We went to the farmer's market this morning.  I will say that the fresh produce is one of the best things about living here.  We ran some errands today and then attempted to do some unpacking.

Between church and more errands, Maya didn't get a good nap in today until this evening.  We went for a walk and she napped in the wrap.  The weather was perfect.  The weekend went by way too fast.

Maya slept about 7 hours last night.  She ate at 9:20 then went to bed about 10:30.  Usually I wake her up to feed before I go to bed but didn't last night.  I expected her to wake up around 1 and then again around 5.  But I woke up a little after 4 (when she usually gets up to eat) and she was still out of it (I checked to make sure she was ok).  She woke up starving at about 5:20.  I should really start going to bed when she does, especially if she's going to start sleeping for longer stretches during the first half.  Maya has been happier in the evenings the last few days but she was a little cranky tonight.  She goes to the pediatrician tomorrow and will get her 2 month shots.  That will probably lead to more crankiness.
