Maia is a girl with many talents

Today was a historic day: for the first time, we fed Maia with the infamous 'formula'. Even though she did not like it at first, she surrendered to her own huge appetites and had it all. We're pretty sure she could drink most anything. Since mama will be going back to work soon, we have to get her accustomed to some alternative to mama's milk... hope it works out! Papa had the privilege to feed her on his own for the first time.

Maia grows and grows and gets prettier by the minute. She's amazing. And funny. And clever. Very good personality (and, as we all know, personality goes a long way.) She's adventurous: yesterday we found her at the bottom of a barrel in the attic. How did she get there? No clue. Anyway, she has excellent penmanship for someone her age. She's kind of good at predicting the stock market, too. She's been putting together a portfolio. You know, to be ready. Anything can happen, anytime. She keeps everything in order in her room, shelves, etc. She's very neat. She collects rare coins, too. Gets them on eBay (she has her own account, of course; very good feedback, red star and stuff. She gets lots of postal packages, it's driving Mr. Postman nuts.) We don't know how she figured all this out (especially since she sleeps a lot.)

We like her, she's nice, you know. And, on top of all that, she's oh-so-photogenic. See for yourself, here.

Look at my cool psychodelic bellbottoms! I'm such a hipster!

Maia is growing up so much that is not easy to move her around anymore... look how dad struggles!

Catching up with pictures

Yes, we are finally back here with new pictures. This group includes the visit of Tante Renee and Uncle John, fun in the bathtub, a cute bunny-day suit, and of course, napping pictures.

Click here.

This was my special outfit for Easter Sunday, the "Bunny-Day". (I forgot my rabbit ears though.)

This is my favorite jacket. I got it from our nice neighbors downstairs, Diane, Rob, Anna and Nina.
