Jun e30, 2007. We went strawberry picking. Maeve was very good at taking strawberries out of the bucket and eating them, leaves and all. Here, she's trying to share with Daddy.

May 31, 2007. Maeve has been taking 2-3 steps independently for about a week, but today she took off. Here she's walking 5 feet from Daddy to the bookcase. She makes it without falling 5/6 of the time.

April 24, 2007. Maeve attended a Pekip class in Saarbrueken, Germany. The babies are always naked in class, but this time they got to play in a pool.

April 7, 2007. Maeve has started cruising (although she can't crawl or pull herself up), and has cruised from the side of the tub to the bathroom cabinet. And check out her physique! 

April 7, 2007. Maeve has now perfected the thumb and finger pincher grasp and enjoys feeding herself. 

Maeve March 29, 2007. 

March 10, 2007. Maeve likes holding herself up, although she can't pull herself up yet, and is starting to reach for things to be able to move when she's standing. 

March 10, 2007. After lunch. If you look really closely there is a white blob in the middle of Maeve's lower gum. This is her one tooth. 

Feb 27, 2007. Maeve now likes to hold herself up standing, as long as an adult puts her there, as she can't stand up on her on. She's hanging her with Grandmom Shirley. 

Feb 24, 2007. Maeve feeding herself banana #2. 

Feb 24, 2007. Maeve now has a tooth, and has graduated to feeding herself banana. She grabs the banana and stuffs part of it in her mouth, mostly gumming off an enormous wad to swallow. 

Feb. 18, 2007. Maeve is now eating non-pureed food, such as banana chunks. However, she thinks food comes on a spoon, so Mike and Maeve were having a battle of wills to teach her to take food off fingers. Guess who won.

Feb. 4, 2007. We put Maeve under an extra-large jacket in the winter to go for walks.
