The Gussman Family

​Our Story

 

Maya Pearl Gussman was born on March 14th, 2014 at 3:48 pm, 6 days after her due date (after being "encouraged" to join us).  She weighed in at a whopping 8 lbs, 13 oz and measured 20 inches long. 'Maya' is named after her great grandmother Mary on her paternal grandmother's side, and 'Pearl' is her maternal grandmother's maiden name.

 

She is welcomed (read: eyed warily) by big sister Roxy the cat as well as Aunt Stacy, Uncle Alex, Aunt Jen, soon-to-be Uncle Jared, Uncle Joel and two very excited cousins, Gabby (age 8) and Kyra (age 6).  This is granddaughter #3 for Grandma and Grandpa Spierer and the first grandchild for Nanny and Poppa Gussman.

 

So far, Maya is proving to be a very sweet and relaxed baby. She is sleeping well, loves to be swaddled and is currently experimenting with her voice as well as smiling at Mommy and Daddy.
