Maia is busy busy these days. The title suggests adult-like activities 
She’s currently very into wearing beads. She wakes up, finds them, and puts them on…and could wear them all day if I didn’t insist on taking them off for outings or we didn’t get tangled up while diaper changing.
Maia is talking lots. She says lots of B words like ball, bubbles, balloon, book, bath, brush, banana, bunnies (as in the Annie’s cheese kind), beads, Beth (yes, that came before Mama), and “Lambie” is simply “Bee.” Also Thank you and yes, and a current favorite is ice, as in what she is holding below in order to make it through another hard teething afternoon and a lip owie from scraping it on a rock (she was trying to use it to break her fall…). And notice the beads again.
Another new word is E-I-E-I-O, so we went to the petting zoo today.
Maia’s also feeding herself, not just goats:
Almost forgot…she’s completely obsessed with the song and music video on Putumayo Kids called No More Monkeys Jumping on the bed. We havent’ yet got good footage of her waving her finger and doing the jumping sign and hitting her head, etc. which is surprising because we even wake up to her doing it in our face, waiting for us to starting singing the song! She is so fun!!
