First Harley!

Mia finally got her first Shirley Davidson! It's been quite the wait, but her patience was finally rewarded with a pink & purple 2008 model. It's got forward and reverse, with a little foot pedal for an accelerator... She hasn't tried jumping the house yet, but I've got high aspirations for this little one!! Look Ma, no hands!

New Toys!

Stacy has been upset lately that there isn't enough for Mia to do outside unless she's in the pool. So we got her a little slide deal and a water table last weekend. It's amazing watching how much fun the Midget has with her new toys! She wants to be outside all the time... Thankfully it's only been about 100-102, so it's still seasonably mild!!!!!!!

Concert Time!

On Sunday nights they have outdoor concerts at the train park. It's really fun as we pack a picnic, load Mia's wagon, and all the kids run around going nuts with the dogs, frizbees, etc. We try and make as many of them as we can when we're in town. This past Sunday the FCC (Families with Children from China) group all went together. Mia brought along her chair and decided to share it with her best friend Sascha! So sweet...

Determination...

Mia has been determined to learn how to use that damn spoon... It's been so great learning to watch her use a fork and spoon, learning to speak, etc. Then, last night while we were in bed, Stacy mentioned that she read this is the age children begin to throw their first trantrums! We discussed how lucky we were that Mia doesn't throw tantrums... I'm willing to bet you can guess where this is going. Tonight during dinner Mia decided not only was she not going to eat, but that she would make sure we understood her point by throwing her plate of food on the floor! Yes, our sweet little angel is offically a woman now!
