Bath Time!

So far, Maija hasn't shown much interest in taking baths.

Poor thing...she doesn't like it at all!

Mommy and Auntie help calm her down while she gets rinsed and cleaned up.

Staying calm...

Sweet little Maija staying calm as she finishes up her bath.

A cozy, warm & dry towel! Much better!

Maija's First Home Husky Game vs. Cal

Maija was very prepared for the rainy weather at yesterday's Husky football game. (Nov. 17, 2007)

Maija wearing her official ToC!

Grandpa Ken holding Maija before the game in the trailer parked in E-1.

Maija had a great view of the halftime show from the upper level deck in Husky Stadium!

Maija was cozy and warm next to Mommy in her Baby Bjorn. Being in the stands in Husky Stadium is the highest up Maija has been so far in her life!

Giving a wave from her warm snuggly place.

Tailgating with Anntielise in Grandpa & Grandma's 5th wheel after a Husky win over Cal! Maija is now 2-1, or 1-0 live!

Sucking Grandma Annie's pinky. She liked this!

Yummy!

"Old" Husky Alumni Saxes stopped by the tailgating place to meet Maija for the first time.

Maija: One Week Young

Husky Game Day!

Maija was ready for her first game day in "Official TOC"...which is what the Husky Band wears when they are traveling to games or special performances. Since the Dawgs beat Stanford yesterday, Maija's record since her birth is 1:0! Keep up the good luck, Maija! :)

Watching Husky Football can be stressful & tiring! Maija relaxes in Grandpa Ken's arms after a Husky win!

Maija sleeping with her mouth open...I know that happens to run in the Kromann side of the family.
Sweet Maija.

Halloween - Maija's 2nd Day

Maija got to come home today and celebrate her first holiday! Halloween! We had a cozy time while the door bell rang and trick-or-treaters arrived in various costumes. Grandma Annie made pizza and Uncle Jason Hammond and Uncle Paul Kromann came over to see their little niece.

Three generations. Grandma Annie holds Maija for the first time. Grandma was getting over a cold and didn't want to risk giving it to the little one.

Maija making cute little baby faces!

Look at those beautiful eyes!

Looks like a yawn is on its way!

Big yawn!

Maijia checks out the little ghost puppet on Grandma's finger.

Cuddling with daddy.
