I had a rough morning, a not-so-great preschool tour (more on that some other time).
Maya must have known that I needed some cheering up . . . she decided to show off her walking skills (more than I've ever seen).
A few things:
1. If you have your sound on, you can hear her "talk" :)
2. It looks like she's going to crack her head on the wall, but don't worry, she doesn't (I'm letting you know so you can watch without cringing)
3. I love how she knows where the barn is, even though I don't.
4. See how she peeks around the doorway (1:04) instead of going into the room? And then she keeps glancing to her left when we're in the spare room? That's because she's suddenly become very wary of the snake----she points to the cage, wants someone to walk over with her and look at the snake, etc. We don't watch tv (so she's never seen a scary snake) and keep puzzling over why she's suddenly nervous . . . and then we realized that one of her favorites books (Dear Zoo) talks about a snake being "too scary"! I think that's where it's coming from. How smart is she?!
Is the scary snake ion "Dear Zoo"?
ReplyDeleteWe loved that book when my son was a toddler!
Oh, thats just wonderful! I love the way she walks right past her walker without a second thought :)
ReplyDeleteGreat Job Maya!! Dana watch out because she's picking up some speed there!!
ReplyDeleteLove the smile this gave me today!! She's so precious, and what a little smarty-pants!!
ReplyDeleteOMG she is just too cute - great signing and talking too. Go Maya Go!
ReplyDeletei love it!!! she's doing great with her walking. and, too funny about the snake.:-) i promise i didn't tell her how much grandma dislikes it!!!
ReplyDeleteYep its true...Maya's definitely a walker now! Can you believe it? I can only imagine how long Miss Maya has been working towards this and you've been patiently waiting. Way to go Maya!!
ReplyDeleteI love this! Look at Maya go, and use words and sign! I can't wait to see little Richie when he gets to Maya's developmental stage.
ReplyDeleteMaya amazes me every time you post a video! Oh, and Dear Zoo was a favorite book of Lily's (and she's 19!!!). Keep sharing these fantastic milestones.
ReplyDeleteIt's really amazing. Now Dave and I have to remember to make her practice walking instead of carrying her . . . it's hard to remember, since we've been carrying her for nearly 3 yrs now :)
