Thomas the train

On the episode Edwards Big Brass Band, *spoiler alert* Edward is hit
by an object swinging from a crane. He is knocked off the track and
has a frown on his face. Maya is very frightened by this. As soon as
the object appears on screen, she cries and runs to the corner. I
took the video to show you how some things viewed through a childs
eyes are very different from what we see. They are so sensitive.

We explained it to her in a way that helped her see that Edward was
ok, and that it wasn't a bad thing, just inconvenient. It worked. Whew!

Danger!

If you insist on sleeping in my lap while I'm eating, be aware of the
risks.

Maya feeds Kathy

Listen to what she says to her.

Sebastian loves his birds

Where are you?

Maya is only allowed to have her pacifier if she is in her crib or
carseat. This is the new rule in our quest to get rid of pacifiers.
Today while I was feeding sebastian, Maya went to her room to play.
When I didn't hear anything for a few minutes, I got worried. I called
for her, but she didn't answer. I ran to her room, then to her
playroom, and this is what I found:

Maya collects clover flowers

We think she is allergic to them because her face was swolen and red
soon after arriving at the lake. She didn't mind.

Project: project

I started this Surprise Baby Jacket before Sebastian was born. Since
he arrived I have made little progress. I enjoy knitting, even though
it is a craft and I've sworn off crafts until I finish a few projects.
So I'll vategorize this one away as a project since I do love to work
on it :)
