Happy 1st Birthday Mia - on March 19th!!

Didn't want to wear the birthday crown.

"It's by birthday!"

She liked it before she saw everyone stairing at her.

Mood changed and wasn't so happy anymore.

Right before the sad face and tears!

Much better...give me the presents!!

I think this might have been her favorite part - the balloon.

Thanks Phil, Kristen, and Grace for the stroller and doll bottles. She loves to use them, even if she doesn't always "push" the stroller.

Some cute and funny pics from February and March

Crazy balloon hair at Mom and Dad's birthday at Red Robin.

Beautifully clean baby.

This is about how far we have gotten with potty training - playing with it! Now she will at least sit on the potty!

This was a smile for the camera - pretty rare now.

Happy birthday Mia! This is Mia's actual b-day morning.

Funny Faces!

Some January Pictures

I am a little behind with getting pictures up here. I wish I had some more time to take some pictures. She is a silly little girl that is now running around and getting into everything. She likes to tease by reaching out to give you something and then take it back when you

reach for it. Funny girl. She can't get enough bananas, avocados, and black beans - oh yes, and any type of pasta and green beans.

So, Mia is officially walking. We decided to stop
counting her steps (I can't count that high!!). This is
also her most favorite walking friend (yes, the milk box).

Cute Mia pictures from the month of December

Well this is a lot of pictures, I know, but she has been making very cute faces for the camera this month and since I will be going back to school next week I am sure I won't be posting many pics very often...also you may notice the Mia is full of bruises on her head...came out nice in her JC Pennies pictures too. She is walking some, mostly furniture walking, but has gotten up to 12 steps on her own, and let's just say that her being so active is taking a toll on her little head. Most of the bruises, though, come from when she is holding onto Daisy and then Daisy decides she wants to be somewhere else, leaving Mia behind on the floor. She doesn't usually get too upset with the bumps, though, but gets back up and keeps going. She is one busy little kid.

Look at her mouth - everything this last month has been "OOOOOO."

These next few are from Christmas morning.

She grabbed this one out of the tree.

Glad she loves her little doll we got her. I took forever deciding on which one to get her.

Thanks, cousin Matthew, for the car. I like to gum it.

Christmas Eve...mommy can't wait to open all the presents on Christmas morning.

I love this face.

Bundled up for our walk out in the snow.

Too bad Bobby got impatient and this is the best one we got.

Here are her "OOOO" lips again.

And again.

This is actually November, as you might notice, there is no snow out the window yet!!

Happy to open an early Christmas present.
