Our baby is 15 months old today!

We went out for Chinese food for her 15 month-day! She's growing so fast and still so funny! Please look at this video of her playing with her purse. She even puts on lipstick. She's too much!

Merry Christmas!

We had a wonderful Christmas with family and some friends! Our baby girl received many presents and she opened all of them herself. She is so cute! Here are some pictures from our annual Christmas breakfast. We had a blast!!!

Daddy gave us both beautiful necklaces from Mayor's

What a great day!!!

Where's Dada?

She gets whatever she wants today!

One Month Home!!!

We've been home 1 month with Mia. 30 days ago this little girl came into our home and life will never be the same. We've seen her go from baby to little girl rather quickly but we are enjoying this age so much. She is so much fun and it is so amazing to watch her learn things so quickly. Instead of telling you the usual stuff about Mia, smart, funny, etc. LOL!!! I will tell you some things she does that are adorable.

1) When asked what sound the dog makes she says "poof" not "woof"- She knows about 3 animals now.

2) Files her own nails with her baby nail file watching me as I do mine

3) Tries to put her finger in a triangle when we sing "Itsy bitsy Spider"

4) Give kisses with a long "mmmmm"....then a "mah" sound! So cute!

5) Tries to sing along in church saying "La la la...."

6) Drinks medicine like its candy including the Iron nasty one!

7) Asks to be put in her play pen when she gets sleepy...she points at it.

8) Can do sign language for "more" and "finished"

9) Brushes her own teeth with the help of mommy

10) When you grab my hand she pulls it away saying "Mine Mama"

She's not walking on her own but she's definitely getting a lot better at it. She's takes quite a long trek on her own but then she gets nervous and drops to the floor.

Oh we are in love with this little girl. Here are some pictures of the last couple of weeks!

Finally, someone else has the remote in this house!

Dinner with Mommy and Daddy

It's Official - Mia is an American Citizen

She has a very short picture span. She will only sit for 5 pictures max but here are a couple I took of her hanging out around the house. She is a very busy little girl and keeps me very active. She plays with all her toys since she quickly gets tired of what she considers boring. She's still trying to walk on her own and is doing very good but she still has to work on her balance. She can walk for 8-9 steps but then she runs and that's what causes her to fall. I have to make this post short and sweet since she is next to me learning how to escape the stroller.

Check out the pose!

UPDATE: We just checked the mailbox and we received her Naturalization Certificate. It's official she is an American Citizen now. It has the funniest picture of her screaming her head off. Oh that's going to be one for the books. LOL!!!!

Mia & Mommy's 1st Day at Mommy & Me

We went to Mommy and me class today. Mia had a blast jumping, climbing and trying to walk on her own.

She even went to the teacher, Ms. Jenna to try to do wheel barrel on the beam like the rest of the kids. She is such a brave little girl. Here are some pictures from today.

UPDATE: I forgot to mention that Mia had her first pediatrician appointment on Monday and she is doing very well. She's just above the 50% mark for her age. The doctor is not too concerned about her not walking yet. She did receive 3 shots to catch up for the missing vaccinations. She has most of her teeth now, the Dr. said she's getting her 18 month teeth now too. Her iron was a little low too but not to terrible.

Mia's Bedtime

She is so sweet. She likes her bedtime music and today she fell in love with her Winnie the Pooh.

I love watching her!

It's Christmas Time!

So of course Mia had her Christmas photos taken. You know I couldn't resist. She was a little cranky but we did get some great shots. She can't help that little personality peak through. She's a character. It's going to be a wonderful Christmas!!!
