March was a month full of wanting to do things on her own. Mariela wants to put on her own shoes, feed herself, and brush her own teeth even though she isn't yet able to do any of them well ;) Towards the end of the month we enjoyed having Anma and Pop-Pop visit us. Mariela loved going down the big slide with them! We ended the month with our first vacation as a family. Mariela wasn't too sure about the ocean waves but we all enjoyed the warm Hawaiian sun and beautiful island.

March 15th, since she's been insisting on feeding herself, Mariela's gotten better at independently using a spoon
