Waaaayyy over due!

It has been way to long since I have posted an update about Mia...yikes!
We can't believe that our precious little girl is now 2!!! We had an awesome time celebrating Chris & Mia's birthday's & are so thankful to all our family & friends who helped make their birthday so special! =)
Some Mia stories.....

Mia is talking up a storm & we don't think she stops talking unless she is eating or sleeping ;) But wait! She does talk in her sleep! Ha!

She likes to name her babies & animals & has come up with some creative names: Polka (baby), Pasaley (baby-pronounced Pas-uh-ley), Tessla (dog), Yellow (baby), Paws (dog), Nose (horsey), Light (moose), Mocha (dog)

Mia was an Ewok (from Star Wars) for Halloween. I put a pink bow on one ear & she wore pink shoes- a little girl Ewok ;)




When Mia sees me using butter she says: "Butter, baby, butter!" It's hilarious!


Mia has started to pray on her own! So precious! Here are a couple examples:
Dear Jesus, thank you for drink, tomatoes, cheese, plates, Daddy, Mommy, Mia, new baby & Nona.
Dear Jesus, thank you ketchup, mustard, avocados, chicken and for butter, baby, butter!

Birthday morning! Mia gave her Daddy a microphone (once called a song phone by Mia) because they like to sing together!




Chris has taught Mia some Christmas songs! She knows Silent Night & Away in a Manger. It's adorable to hear them sing together =)

Several of our friends nurse their babies. When Mia sees them, so wants her baby, sits on the couch, covers the baby up with a blanket & says she is feeding the baby too!

The other day I was cold so I wrapped myself up in a blanket & Mia said, "Mommy is feeding the new baby!" Smart girl! ;)

Mia's Papa got her a doctor set for her birthday & she is taking great care of us!
Because of the doctor set she has learned the names of some medical instruments & how to "use" them. So, while she & I were at my pre-natal doctor appointment the nurse was taking my blood pressure & Mia says, "That's for blood pressure." The nurse gasps & then asks how old she is & how she can possibly know that! It was really funny to see the nurse's face & her reaction! =)

Birthday party!!!!




Mia really likes Tigger & has given us each a character identity from Winnie the Pooh. Mia is Pooh, I am Tigger, Chris is Eeyore & the new baby is Roo! ;)
