Maya - 20 Months

Maya Turns 20 months today and she seems to have had a nice growth spurt this last month. After being sick for a week or so where she was refusing to eat and had a slight temperature, she rebounded and is now eating up a storm. She has discovered both eggs and oatmeal for breakfast and one of our new routines is to go out for breakfast on Saturdays while Mommy sleeps. Sundays we go to the farmer's market and fill up on free samples.

Maya is starting to get a lot more daring. She loves going to the park and will now try to engage some of the other kids (to mixed success). When she finds someone to play with she loves playing chase with them. She will climb on just about everything these days and now loves to go down the slide tummy first, and even head first.

She also loves running but still occasionally falls, she just got over a big bruise on her forehead as she fell on the play set in the park near us and hit her head on one of the bars.

We tried her out on a tricycle at toys r us the other day but she just kind of walked around with it rather than trying to ride. We're thinking that maybe for her second birthday she may be ready.

She still loves music and dancing more than just about anything. She is now all about The Wiggles. We made the mistake (when will we ever learn!) of letting her watch one of the shows while I was testing Netflix streaming on our TiVo and she hasn't been the same since. She now has several Wiggles CDs and and carries around one of the CD covers with her when we go out.

She plays a couple days a week with her friends Acacia and Jada. They have a little tub full of plastic balls that is lots of fun for them. She looks forward to seeing them and will sometimes say "Acacia?" when we drive near their apartment.
