6/17/2011 190 Days Old

June 17th, 2011

On the 190th day in the life of the most beautiful girl in the history of the world the morning began peacefully. Maya decided to sleep in today. She did not fully wake up until 10:00. The extra sleep was much appreciated. Today was a day for just the three of us. Erin had to work for a few hours, but the rest of the day was spent together as a family.

Maya had a visit from her nurse today. Everything is still going well. There is no change in her condition. We continued to work with maya on tasting and sitting up. She is a raspberry veteran now, and likes to show off her new skills. She is also more opinionated and vocal than ever. She lets us know what she thinks often.

This evening Grandpa Bob and Grandma Chris came by to see Maya. B.J. Also came by. We all ate dinner together and then hung out and watch the crossroads guitar festival DVD. Maya got to hear clapton, and Derek Trucks. She rocked out to some Jonny lang, and bobbed her head as BB King belted out the thrill is gone. Now that Maya is making more facial expressions it is fun to watch her listen to music. She rarely has a negative reaction, but when a song with a strong steady beat plays she definitely gets a little happier. We have been watching her facial expressions closely for a while now. We think that she is starting to smile. Which is something that we were told she would most likely never do. But we all know what happens when someone tells Maya that she can’t do something.
