A Couple of Cute Outfits

Since I (Daddy) have no fashion sense, I couldn't resist posting pictures of these outfits that I put together for Maya that actually looked good (and weren't prepackaged by Carters). 

At least someone that I dress looks good.

 

A First Birthday Bash for Maya

Cupcakes baked and decorated by Auntie Merry and Grandma Carol.

Calm before the storm.

Maya woke up from her nap after the party started and was a little hazy at first.

How do I tackle this?

Mommy has to help.

What a difference a year makes!

Maya's First Thanksgiving, Post Partum

Last year, this is what Maya looked like on Thanksgiving:

This year, she was a little more into the holiday...

Auntie Merry flew in from Chicago to surprise us.

Mmm, yummy cell phone.

 Consternation.

The asparagus was her favorite part.

 At least she shares.  For now.

Yummy beads.

 I like to climb stairs.
