I thought it was time to give a little update on Maya. First of all, we are proud to report that Maya is now walking! She has been taking a few steps here and there for awhile but now she is officially walking. Well...walking means bumps and bruises which is exactly what happened today at daycare. Maya had two incidents that involved a cut on her tongue and a black eye. Yep, a black eye. Tonight she fell again and bumped the same eye. Oh boy did she cry and we couldn't blame her.
Besides the walking, Maya is busy getting her 5th tooth! We discovered yesterday her top tooth is coming in. Well that explains why she wasn't all that hungry the past few days. She is drooling a lot and is busy biting on her fingers so we think she may have another one coming.
Maya is also taking swimming lessons. She absolutely LOVES the water which is fantastic. We spend most of our summer at the lake so it is very important she likes it. I hope she becomes a little swimmer one day.
Here are some pics from today's black eye incident - the first one is before she fell the second time. You can see that it is more swollen and black from the second fall.

Hi Guys! .... great seeing you again today. Never thought to ask you what Maya\'s exact birthdate is. Looks like our girls are just two days apart. I thought also when we got home that if you want us to pick up anything for you while in Ethiopia, please let us know! ... we\'d be happy to. As hard as it is to know how much of our daughter\'s life we\'ve missed out on ... I cannot imagine her not having the hope of a forever family ... it just makes us all the more eager to bring her home. Stay in touch~ The Roberts Family
