our sweet girl is nothing but a bundle of joy.
maya leigh turned 6 months old on sunday. i didn't get a chance to do her birthday shoot until today, while finn was supposed to be napping. instead he was reading books in bed. my friend bonnie was visiting with us & maya couldn't stop smiling & laughing at her. so thanks for your help bonnie!
here are a few of my favorites. more to come with a couple more outfits!
my grandmother once told me my eyes smiled. i thought that was the most unique compliment i'd ever gotten. it made me feel special. i think i understand it completely now- maya's eyes smile. almost always. this might be my favorite from our session today. that sweet gummy mouth!
we had our 6 month check up today:
above 95% for height!
around 80% for weight!
65th-ish for head circumference!

he kept saying what a sweet baby while he rolled her over & stretched out her legs, poked her belly & looked in her ears. she'd do her goofy lil laugh & her eyes would sparkle.
we started our first round of vaccines :( i hate them! hate them!!! i know they're necessary & that they've saved a lot of lives. and that they don't work unless the majority of the pack has them. bryan's for them. i think i'd rather move to a secluded part of the woods & avoid them! the doctor & bryan grant me a delayed schedule. with finn we didn't start until 9 months because he was sick at 6 months. i was tempted to wait until then with maya as well, but since finn is around other children quite a bit, she's more at risk.
back to why i hate them: i've worked with several children that "changed" after their vaccines. their parents strongly believe that the chemicals altered something that may have already been present in their child- but it altered it or triggered it or somehow interfered with things. and that scares the shit out of me. she cried. i barely held it together. the nurse was in & out in less than 2 minutes. she said as she walked out the door "take your time" & that's just what we did. as i was holding/ shushing/ rocking her finn disappeared under the exam table. "whatcha doing?" "i hiding. go away." which translates to i'm pooping. it takes him about 10 minutes to be done. so i nurse her & comfort her. 20 minutes later they get their exam room back to torture another sweet babe :(
back to the shoot!
man, seeing these make me want to go wake her up & shower her with kisses!
girlfriend won't keep a sock on to save her life. she wants those toes!
still can't tell for sure what color her hair is going to be... it was beyond obvious that finn was a redhead at this point & maya in the sunlight is fairly red. maybe she'll be strawberry blonde like me? we will have to wait & see.
tehee.
hiya bonnie!
happy 6 months my lil sweetness.
