Thanksgiving

This is the first Thanksgiving holiday that it really feels like we have a lot to be thankful for. Not that we didn't have a lot to be thankful for before but being new parents it hits home in a different way. We are so very thankful for our lovely little girl. She had a very rough start but has done remarkably well so far and is growing and developing every day.

Maya started smiling last week(not as often as daddy would like yet) and yesterday she started standing up in our laps. Her legs are strong and she likes being able to stand up and kick away from your lap. Mommy is less excited about it when Maya continuously kicks on the c-section incision but nevertheless very happy of the progress. She is often concentrating hard to coo and talk but she hasn't mastered her vocal cords yet. It comes out more as grunts and cries but every now and again we hear an "AAAA" or and "Ohhh". I swear she said "Hej" 3 times yesterday but unfortunately she hasn't been able to reproduce that sound again.

Thank you Maya for being such a wonderful little girl. We are so happy to have you and we are looking forward to seeing you grow.
