Maya at the Lake

We had a great time at the lake this past weekend. This time around we decided to spend Saturday night. Maya enjoyed being there but didn't like the idea of falling asleep in the camper. After I failed miserably at getting her to sleep, Dave laid down with her. Over an hour later and around 10:00, Maya finally gave in and went to sleep.

Earlier that night we had dinner at Zorbaz with our friend Wade. Maya loved the experience, loved the pizza, and hated the macho nachos. It was her first trip to Zorbaz but not her last!

Before heading to the lake, Maya joined Sebastian in his dog kennel. Poor Sebastian!

What a grin! She loved Zorbaz

Maya loves her puppies - here she is on the dogs' cot at the lake

Maya fell asleep on the couch in the camper after exhausting herself by crying. She got her finger pinched in the door. Isn't she cute?

Later on Sunday and at home, Maya played with daddy's cap. She is no longer a baby but a little girl.

SATC

Great movie! I highly suggest every female out there to go watch this movie. It will make you laugh out loud, cry, and be thankful for the girlfriends in your life. I was lucky enough to see the movie on opening night with two friends. We had a blast drinking cosmos beforehand, standing in line 40 minutes prior to the movie starting, and of course the movie. A big thank you to my friend Kimberly and her husband Greg for buying our tickets 2 days in advance. I will definitely be purchasing this movie on DVD.

Next post - Maya. We had a blast at the lake this weekend. Can't wait to share photos.

Olivia

Maya's cousin Olivia turned 2 recently. She got her 2 year old pictures taken this past weekend and boy did they turn out great. Here are two of my favorites. Isn't she a cutie? I sure hope Maya's 2 year pictures turn out half as good.

Maya's 1st Day at the Lake

Yesterday we spent the day at our lake "camper". We decided not to press our luck by staying the night so we made it a day trip. Maya did really well and seemed to enjoy it. The hardest part of the day was getting Maya to go down for her nap. Dave finally laid down with her for an hour before she finally gave in. Our camper is very small so there isn't room for a pack-n-play so Maya has to sleep on the bed. I think she will really enjoy spending time there this summer. We can't wait for the weather and the water to warm up so we can go boating and swimming.
