5 Months 2 weeks
We've had a very busy month. We have been steadily getting the property ready for the dome... the well is going to be drilled next Monday - pray for us, and think water! Jimmy has been clearing out trees, purchasing solar panels, researching composting toilets, and the design of the dome. We just returned from a whirlwind trip to Syracuse where Maya met the other members of her family. She did really well on the flights considering we spent over 10 hours traveling each way, and was really good with all the new people and the new surroundings. She visited her first zoo, and seemed to be interested in the elephant, and fell in love with the penguins, she let out some really loud whines when they would swim out of sight. She slept through most of the rest of the animals, so Uncle Sam gave us a personalized tour. Maya met two great grandmas and went to Johnny's Pizza for the first time. She did get a bit sick near the end of the end of the trip, but seems completely recovered after sleeping in her own bed and listening to the quiet we have here in Selma for a few days. She is sitting up by herself for 30 seconds and more at a time, is waving "bye-bye," and enjoyed her first meal of "solid" food. She's in love with the massive German Shepard "Dante" and she's enjoying her alone time with her toys more and more. What a little doll we've been blessed with, if only she wouldn't grow quite so fast!
PS The photos of us in the Denver airport was taken by a Beach Boy - Maya's first celebrity!
