Family Visit...

We had been anxiously anticipating a visit from Brad's family for months and were so excited when the day finally came!  It was so fun to see everyone and for Maya to have some QT with her Auntie Deanna, Uncle Paul, Cousins Caleb, Weston & Isaac and her Grammy & Grampy!


Paul, Deanna and the boys all stayed with us so it was fun for Maya to spend her mornings with Isaac, who also likes to get up at or before 6am :)  It was very sweet to see these two hang out.  Isaac is a great big cousin and I'm sure he'll continue to watch over Maya for years to come...



Maya also got to spend time with Caleb and Weston.  The boys are so sweet with her and makes me wish we all lived closer together!




Of course, Auntie Deanna loved her Maya time!  


And it was great for Maya to spend time with Grammy and Grampy!  You can see a little more about Maya's time with Grammy once everyone else left in my previous post.


One of the highlights of the visit was a trip to the Monterey Bay Aquarium.  I was really excited to take Maya and even more excited to see how much she responded to and enjoyed all the exhibits once we got there.  Added bonus, she did great in the car...slept all the way there and minus a 5 minute scream-fest around Gilroy (after which she fell asleep for the remainder of the ride) she did great on the way back too!  








love her reflection in this one :)

We miss everyone already and looking forward to the next visit...it couldn't come soon enough!
