I Made Kiran Adnyana was born in Denpasar on Monday 30/1/12 at 5.06am, weighing in at 3.79kg. Everyone was expecting this baby to be a little bit early like Maya but there was a bit of confusion over my due date as the original date was 6th February based on my first scan but then [...]

It is Maya’s second otonan today, meaning she is one year old according to the Balinese calendar. There are 12 months in a year here but each month is 5 weeks, making each year 420 days long.

The truth is I’ve just been busy working and with other projects like my new website project toddler which I’m planning to use as a sort of online base for planning learning activities with Maya and dealing with other toddler stuff. Of course [...]

And at 10 months I have a walking baby! After taking her first steps just after she turned 9 months but then not really bothering for weeks, I thought this would be going in the 11 month update but just a few days ago Maya figured out how to take 3 or 4 steps in [...]

Not quite sure why I’m updating now as it probably means I’ll have nothing left to write about on Maya’s 10 month update but I just felt like posting so…. I woke up this morning with a definite bump which has stayed there all day. I keep staring at myself in amazement. I’m not quite [...]

Wow, 9 months already. Another three months and my little baby will be 1 – argh! Looking back on last month’s update I’m again amazed at how much she’s changed in a month. She’s really becoming a proper little person now, looking and acting more grown up every day. She just gets more fun and [...]
