Two more Spain videos!
I have two more videos from Spain here. To me, they really show how much Maisie has grown up, even in that week in Spain! The first one is of her “swinging” from the slide bar in Barcelona. She went from being cautious climbing up the slide, to swinging from the bar and dropping herself onto the slide. This video is even a tamed down version of how she would swing. The second video is of her jumping. She learned to jump with BOTH feet at the same time while in Valencia while we were sitting at this cool little cafe (with really bad live music). I think she was pretty proud of her herself for her new jumping skills!

When we all stayed in California, my mom and Maisie would go outside at night and look at the moon. Of course my mom made up a “Moon song” to go along with their little nightly outings outside. “Moon moon, in the sky, in the sky, way up high.” Here is Maisie singing it in Barcelona! The sky was actually clear enough to see the moon (which does NOT happen in overcast Amsterdam)!

Ok, I know Justin has been meaning to write about this, and I hate to steal the topic of his blog post, but too bad because i need to share about my experience as well! Today we had my bike fixed and a baby seat put on it! YAY! Justin and I decided that since it was such a nice sunny day out, that we would take our bikes for a spin! Well, sunny could mean rain within minutes if you are talking Amsterdam weather. Oh yeah. So basically, it starting POURING! Thank the Lord that I had bought a little rain poncho thing for Maisie the day before for a time just like this! I must admit a few things from my past before I continue. I’ve never really been great at riding bikes. It all started back when I was around four years old and got my leg/foot…

Maisie LOVES to dance! She especially likes to dance to certain music that we listen to. This is one of her favorite songs.

I’m not sure my title even makes sense. But I needed to communicate just how much I freakin’ love technology! SO MUCH! Here is a video of Maisie and her cousins singing and playing together over the good old video cam!

This video was actually taken a couple weeks ago on our way back up to Portland, but I wanted it to stand alone, instead of putting it in a post with other pictures and videos. Maisie was bored to tears at the end of our long car ride, so this is what she did to entertain herself.
Read MoreMaisie Pictures and Video!
I need to catch everyone up with some pictures! I finally downloaded my pictures from my camera, so it is picture and video time! This picture of Justin and Maisie giving kisses was taken on our way back up to Portland. Somehow Maisie decided to smile for the camera! (yeah, it is a fake smile, but a smile nonetheless!) My best friend from high school had a baby and he is sooooo cute! Here is a little picture of us with our kids! CRAZY! I took this picture the other day because it was just so cute how Maisie was all teeny tiny, sitting in the doorway of this cute little coffee shop. How that brings me delight, I don’t know, but it does! I love this picture of Maisie for a few reasons. First of all, I think her hair looks so freakin’ cute! Secondly,…
