Merry Christmas & Happy New Year! I hope everyone had a great Christmas season & a happy start to the new year! =)
We had a very busy, but fun holiday. We were able to celebrate before and after with my family & we were in NJ for Christmas with Chris' family.
Mia had alot of fun opening her gifts!
Over Christmas she really started talking more & trying to repeat words. A week or 2 before Christmas she said her first two-syllable words! Apple & baby!
Mia started burping Elmo & her baby (she saw her cousin Asher being burped while we were in NJ) & after a couple of pats on the back Mia makes a burping sound! Hehehe! It's really cute & funny!
We found out that Mia does not really enjoy the cold or her heavy jacket- but hopefully that will change as she gets older. Everyone loves to play in the snow! ;)
Yia yia has a saddle in her house, which Mia used as her horse. She had so much fun riding her "horsey" & giving rides to her stuffed animals & toys. What a sweet girl!
We went to a petting zoo (it was the coldest petting zoo I have ever been to!) And Mia (& I) had alot of fun looking at the animals =)
Mia's new signs: clean & drive
New animals sounds: cat, sheep, snake, bird & butterfly.
She also tells people that ovens, stoves, microwaves, coffee & candles are "hot, hot, hot!" =) New words: hot, off, Elmo, baby, apple, yes, no, Ash (Asher her cousin), Yia yia (Grandma) & we are working on Nona (grandma) & Papa (grandpa)!
And when Mia hears a baby cry she imitates them! Ha! It sounds like she is mocking them, but really she isn't! ;) She now has 8 teeth & more on the way.
Oh & she peed once in the potty! Yay!
