Oops. So I guess I missed posting in November. And most of December, really. Where does the time go? Well, nonetheless, here's a cute picture now, taken a few days ago during a rare weekend breakfast together en famille. Chris and I have both been working or traveling alot of weekend days, so it's rare that we're all up at the same time for breakfast. Maya has become a big fan of forks. It seems now that she can stab her food, instead of struggling to scoop it up and balance it on the end of a spoon, her enthusiasm for eating has returned. It still makes me a little nervous as the sharp, metal prongs head toward her tonsils (she hasn't quite grasped that she doesn't have to shove the entire fork in her mouth), but so far, no dramas. Forgetting the sage advice of friends Nate & Vicki, who told us, "Never do anything once with kids that you don't want to do 100 times," we made the mistake of teaching her to tap glasses and say, "Cheers!" Now we say "Cheers!" at least 50 times throughout our meals, which makes actually consuming any fluids a difficult task at times. Just wait til she gets a hold of the brewskis! Happy Holidays everyone. Cheers!
