All Pete wants for Christmas.....

....is a nook! He's been eyeballing the nook e-reader that Barnes & Noble sells. He checked out a couple of other e-readers, but this is the best, he claims. Unfortunately, they cost $259 dollars. Anyone wanna go halvsies?! Quartersies?

Moooooovies!

Maya turned nine months old this weekend. Today I took a couple videos. Enjoy!

A Lovely Sunday Afternoon

We didn't have much going on today. I let Pete sleep in until 10am while Maya and I hung out and played in the living room, then we all sat around watching the boob tube and dorking around online. Maya started falling asleep snuggled up to her Daddy.


We got bored, so we decided to go to the mall and just walk around. We got a cheese-on-a-stick and a cherry lemonade, and then Maya and I went on the carousel. It was Maya's first real merry-go-round ride!


We went into the Disney Store where Maya was enamored by the stuffed animals. To Pete's dismay, I just had to get an E.T. picture of Maya with the stuffed animals!


She liked the Wall-E dancing toy, too.



If only they had baby dolls, Maya would have been in her own little utopia. That girl loves her baby dolls! You should see her when we go to Target!

Ciera's Turn!

Lately, I've been picking up Ciera from school three days a week, and she spends the night on Fridays. We put her hair in rollers on Friday night and she was wearing a new shirt I got her, so we decided to take some pretty pictures in the back yard. Here they are!

Maya's portraits are in!

I scanned them on our crummy scanner, so they're a bit grainy. They turned out so cute, though!

Cutie Patootie!

I just found this website. This guy talks about the news, and has a new video every Monday. It's really funny, but I couldn't find a way to embed it here. Sooooo, click on the linkie below!

Sick!

Maya is sick. She is crazy congested, and woke up four times last night. Today while we were out and about, she blew a booger-bubble that was at least two inches across! It was so gross! I kinda wish I had my camera handy so you all could see it. I've never seen anything so amazing and simultaneously disgusting.

Last, but not least, Maya in her Day of the Dead outfit. We went to the parade here in Albuquerque.

Picture Time!

Maya had her portrait done today. I got a package where I will get tons of the pose with Maya surrounded by toilet paper, and a couple of the other poses a la carte. If you want some of the TP pose, let me know and I'll mail them to you. If you want any of the other poses then you can buy them at this website:

You can see them all there, too! They are far cuter than I expected from a Wal-mart portrait studio, and I am really happy with the pictures I got!
