Happy Holidays from Little Miss Maia

Mommy wanted me to let you know that it is all her fault that the blog is a little behind. I have been wanting to tell you about a lot of things, like turning 10 months old (and all my new tricks), visiting Grandma and Grandpa in Chicago, and volunteering for important baby research at a Very Big And Impressive University.

But for now, I hope that you all have a very nice Christmas, Hannukah, Winter Solstice, Kwaanza, or FESTIVUS! Mommy and Daddy have told me that some guy named Santa is coming tonight but I don't know why it should matter to me since I go to bed at 7:00. I guess I'll find out...

Little Miss Maia Jams Out

Here are some funny pictures my Daddy took of me.
I really like music. When something comes on that I like, I start to dance. Here I am doing the Hustle, or something like it.
Let's boogie!

Little Miss Maia Does Thanksgiving

Last week we had a very special time putting on our nice clothes and eating all day long. Mommy and Daddy say it's called "Thanksgiving".

Here I am in my fancy dress showing Auntie Dawn my new stuffed dragon.

And hanging out with GG before dinner. (Good thing we hung out before dinner, because I caught GG napping for a long time after dinner---shhh! don't tell anyone I told you!)

Opa and I helped Bapcia set the table. Sort of.
OK, we didn't help at all.

Mommy had to make sure we got lots of pictures of my Thanksgiving dress!

Mommy said to tell you that she certainly did not try to coordinate our clothes, and she has no idea what you could possibly be talking about.
When it was time to eat, we all sat at a fancy table at Bapcia's house (well not me, I was in my highchair)Turn me around and sit down already so I can get my hands on some turkey!Mmmm...that's better.
After dinner, Uncle Mike and I provided some light entertainment. But first, I had to fight to get my guitar back from Opa. He really loves that thing.
Uncle Mike didn't have too much Grown Up Juice, he just looks like he did.
The next day, we were all pretty tired.
BUT...I still made a trip to meet Santa! I'm not so sure if I liked getting my picture taken with him, but I have a feeling he's still going to bring me some good presents. I *have* been a very good girl, after all.
P.S. Daddy took a lot of nice pictures at Thanksgiving but he didn't give them to Mommy yet so she will have to post them later for me!
