She giggled last night for the first time while NOT being tickled!! I usually have to tickle her to get a good one. (No worries....not too much because I HATED when people would tickle mercilessly when I was little!) I was just laying on a blanket with her and I would sing a really high note and she would copy me and then we kept going back and forth. All of the sudden she started cracking up! It was music to my ears....no sweeter sound in the whole world. :)
Maya is not really scooting yet but yesterday she was pushing up really high on her arms and then she would raise her body up on one leg. I was floored! She turns in circles and of course rolls all over the place but no crawling or scooting yet. Which is ok with mommy!
Can you tell I am obsessed with the baby leg warmers? :) Aunt Michelle made her this onesie. Too cute!

My big girl! Actually there were lots of tears right after this pic. She chomped down on that toy and hurt her gums. So sad. :( No teeth yet but she is chewing on EVERYTHING and attacks my fingers every single time she sees them. She pulls on her ears a lot but no ear infection. I think she is doing that because teeth are on their way. But what the heck do I know?! :)
I am having so much fun staying home with her. It just reaffirms my decision every day. Even on the hard days, which so far are few and far between, I am so happy and I absolutely love my life and feel very blessed! I have been crafting my little heart out lately. My sister has been coming over a couple times a week. After we finished the girls' letters, we decided that we didn't want craft time to end! So we started on some Christmas letters. And last night I just felt inspired to finally make my fall wreath. I just figured if I didn't get it started and finished soon, then fall would be over! This is going to be a full month so this is a fun way to relieve stress!! It is the in-law's turn for Thanksgiving and we are having them here for the holiday. I will be making my first turkey. (Yikes!) But I told Khalid that he or his mom will have to stick their hand inside to take all the yucky stuff out. Just can't do it. :)
THEN....one of my best friends from college is coming with her husband the day after turkey day!!! They are staying 3 nights and I cannot tell you how excited I am! I haven't seen Sarah in 3 years and that is just nuts considering we spent every single day together during our 4 years in college. Can't wait!!
