Day 167

Dear Daddy,

This morning we got up and quickly got around to a doctor's appointment for mommy. I had yogurt for breakfast this morning... yum yum! I made such a mess with it.

Unlike last time... I was a really good girl at her appointment! Mommy was so glad. When we got home, I fell right asleep and took quite a nap. I got up, we played, ran a couple of errands, and came home. I was really upset in the car ride home... but mommy gave me a bottle right away and I chugged it and dozed off.

I love you, daddy, and I can't wait to see you.
Love, Maya

Day 166

Dear Daddy,

Today was our first day with you gone to your class. We hope you are doing well and not missing talking to us too much.

I slept in good this morning. We got up and got ready to eat lunch with some of our friends. Mommy forgot my yogurt in the fridge (bad mommy) and the restaurant didn't have many options for me (what restaurant doesn't have applesauce or cottage cheese?!) so I tried cantaloupe for the first time instead. I liked it!

Then we came home and I napped, and we played for a bit. And I tormented poor Evie.

Mommy's knee tasted yummy.

I had a bath with my new toy tonight. I had so much fun with it! It's my little dolphin, and mommy winds it up and it swims in circles.

We hope you are snug in your bed and safe and happy and warm, but not too hot (since it's 81 degrees right now at 6am)... well so now you are getting up, but hopefully you slept good.

I love you, daddy, and I can't wait to see you.
Love, Maya

Day 165

Dear Daddy,

Today I slept in nice and late-mommy was all ready for church by the time I got up! I drank a bottle, we went to church, and came back to talk to you. Then I took a nap-not a good one, but a nap nonetheless.

This afternoon mommy did laundry... and I thought it would be fun to sit in the basket. Here I am tipping out of it...

And falling! But I wasn't upset at all.

Tonight at dinner I had pasta and bread along with my squash and peaches. The pasta is on the spoon (mommy cut the noodles in half) and the bread is on her finger. I loved them a lot!

Then Emily and I played...

And then hung upside down from mommy's legs!

I was so very tired drinking my bottle...

We are going to miss you a lot over the next couple of weeks, but we hope you do really well in your class. We will take lots of pictures for you to see when you get back. I am so excited to talk to you on the 10th!

I love you, daddy, and I can't wait to see you.
Love, Maya

Day 164

Dear Daddy,

Here are today's pictures.

I had potato for the first time today and loved it.

I love you, daddy, and I can't wait to see you.
Love, Maya
