More birthday festivities...,

 We in true Ontiveros Style we celebrated Maya's birthday all week...., Mom would have celebrated the entire month if dad had let her.
 Auntie Nae and her crew came over for cake, ice cream and a few presents.


 I am SO glad her bangs are going out....., I think I blocked out how short they were!

 Auntie Sandy sent Maya the best horse package!  She loved it!

Maya's 4th Birthday

 Our little Maya turned 4 of February 26th, 2013.  I'm still in shock that she has gotten so big so fast.  I want to stop time for a bit.  For her birthday party she was a Fairy Tea Party..., and so that's what she had.
 The decorated fairy houses with LOTS of glitter and jewels.




 Lunch of Nutella sandwiches..., aka chocolate sandwiches, Cheetos and chocolate dipped strawberries.  Maya excited to use the mini glass tea cups.

 A few presents.....,



 Cupcakes in the birthday girl's favorite colors....,
 .., and then a little fairy freeze dance.  I LOVED this part.  So funny watching these girls shout the words to Kate Perry (Firework) or Miley Cyrus (Party in the USA).  How do they know these things?




 This was suppose to be the good picture....,
 ..., that lead to the silly picture.
All and all it was a fun day for Miss Maya.

Ballet

Maya started ballet this past fall and has loved it.  She refers to dance as something 'I just need to do mom.'  I thinks she's found her passion.., for now anyway.

Christmas 2012

 We LOVED the Christmas season this year.  The kids were at a great age and we were able to pack it all in.  We started the month with visiting Santa at our friend's office.., no lines and a great Santa!  Maya would not get close to Santa for the life of her.  She digging her nails in to the back of my neck in the picture below because she's so nervous.
 Christmas Eve we had the Linfords over for dinner.  they brought Maya the cutest geisha girl dress from Beijing and Mason the coolest dragon ninja outfit.
Our little family on Christmas Eve
 We were thrilled to have a white Christmas this year!
 Christmas morning was a such a  nice relaxing morning.  The kids were pleases with Santa and
 He's been waiting for this Wii game...., can you tell?

Maya's make up set.  I have it with $1 Store makeup..., cleaned out all the real make up and replaced it with bright colors of nail polish.  It looks so real and Maya thinks it is!  Thanks Pinterest for the idea!
 Remember this gross yard sale find?  I paid $5 for it.  Maya and I painted it.., shingled the roof..., wall papered the walls.., tiled the bathroom and the kitchen and the the coolest part..., Santa filled it with doll furniture.
 Legos, Legos and more Legos was the theme for Mason this year.

 Maya was thrilled to show grandma the makeup set that Santa brought her.
 And even better.., grandma let Maya put all 'the pretty makeup' on her.


 Our traditional Christmas morning breakfast with Grandma and Grandpa.  We love having them each year!

 We love having Grandma and Grandpa O so close to us!
