This is our family!

Welcome! This is our family: Lauren, Donny, & Maya. We are all new at this and have a lot to learn, but everyday we are learning something new from each other (whether we like it or not).

This picture shows our family about a year ago. Maya is there even though you cannot see her. In this picture I am about 8 1/2 months pregnant. Unfortunately, you will not find too many pictures of my baby bump, as I wasn't too excited to show off the added inches to my waistline.

So this is our life story together. I waited to start a blog until I felt I had a little more free time. And we just got the Internet at home, so that helps too. :) At this point of the year, we are getting ready to celebrate a few birthdays. The most exciting one is Maya's first birthday. She will be turning one on March 26th. Donny and I are both planning on taking the day off and celebrating with her by taking her either to the National

Zoo or the Baltimore Aquarium. Both of which she has not been to yet. I think that she will really enjoy the aquarium, as it is her favorite part of our house and we only have a 10 gallon tank and a few fish.

I can't wait to see her reaction!
