The Pink Fairy of Guam...

Mommy says that one day Maia saw this clothes in the house and just had to wear it. So, they donned the duds and did an impromptu photo shoot. Considering this was done with a simple point and shoot, some of these pics came out pretty darn good. Here's my favorite.

 

And I saved my favorite for last:

Another Milestone for Maia...

Today our 20 month old potty training toddler had an accident-free day. It's always a proud day when your child exceeds you...

Halloween 2011...

Last year for Halloween, we dressed up Maia as R2-D2, but she didn't know the difference and we didn't get many miles out of that outfit. This year, Maia is still a bit young to really understand the holiday, but we did another costume. At this age, she'll pull off any costume that she feels restricts her, so we went with the easy "Little Red Ridding Hood."

This year we also did a jack-o-lantern. Because Maia wouldn't be very helpful with a knife, we decided to only do a drawing. Mom later went ahead and cut it as well.

The Patron Saint of Bendy Straws...

Guam is a very Catholic island. I didn't grow up in a Catholic community so I'm still learning a lot about all of the holidays and numerous patron saints. One I'm still trying to figure out is St. Andrew, who, as far as I can tell, is the patron saint of bendy straws. Am I misinterpreting this sculpture somehow...?
