I was thinking about some events that have occurred lately. I could have sworn there were some big events. I forgot to post some great things!
Maia's 2nd birthday was on May 20th! We went to Disneyland again for her birthday and then we celebrated with family on the weekend. Maia loved the festivities including hitting the pinata with a stick but did NOT want to blow out the candles on her cupcake. I think it was too scary for her. Big cousin Abram had to show her that it was okay. She still didn't take her chances.
Maia also had her 2-year check up. Her stats are:
Weight: 28 lbs. 4 oz. (75%)
Height: 35.5 inches (90%)
Head circumference: 19 inches (75%)
She's a healthy and happy baby. We are very grateful for Maia and her health.
Thrifty's ice cream for everyone!
Maia loved her birthday cake pinata.

Maia asked for brownies for her birthday.
Daddy was quick enough to get the pink elephant.
Mother's Day was in May and I had to talk in church about mothers. I was happy that my mom was there to hear it because it was mostly about her. Joe got up with my nieces that were visiting to make breakfast for all the moms in the house. After the outside oven glass broke on Joe, he changed breakfast plans and still created a nice meal for us. What a champ! And my gift? A day at the spa and a massage!!! LOVE!!!
Father's Day was in June! Let's recap the past 3 Father's Days for Joe:
Father's Day 2008 Maia was a colicky newborn screaming and crying all day long!
Father's Day 2009 Maia was in the hospital for her phytophotodermatitis thing.
Father's Day 2010 I was nauseous and my dad had to leave an Alaskan fishing trip with his son to settle some lawsuit against his company in Mexico. It was the first Father's Day in 10 years that my dad had been home for. Joe was sweet enough to share his day with my dad. Joe cooked some pretty rockin' barbecued chicken for all of us.
Cousins Camp started this year. The four oldest cousins (Marin, Santi, Autumn, and Sadie) all gathered at Grandma's house for the first cousins camp. Amy pretty much ran everything. Maia loved having cousins around all the time. Joe, Maia, and I got to spend Saturday with the girls at Wild Rivers! I hadn't been to Wild Rivers since I was maybe 12! It was just as I remembered it with a few new rides. It was WILD!
That was May, June, and part of July. I'm catching up...
