A Look Into Mia's Domain

We've had a fun weekend. Grammy and Pa Pa came to visit us. We went out to dinner Friday and shopping Saturday. Mia got plenty of clothes as usual. She grows so fast that I'm always buying the next size up to try to stay ahead!

Solid foods are going well. We've been feeding Mia sweet potatoes for dinner for the past week. She really likes them. Also, she's been eating bananas with her breakfast for the past few days. They're a hit! I'm glad she is willing to try new things. We are taking it slow with introducing new foods. In a couple of days, I hope to start her with carrots. The next food will probably be non-sweetened applesauce. I love making her baby food, but making applesauce from scratch is a little too involved for me. I like non-sweetened applesauce from a jar myself, so I'll help her eat it.

I've learned some exciting news. I'm going to be an aunt! My brother, Tyler, and his wife, Shawna, are expecting a baby. I don't know the official due date yet, but it will be in the spring. This will be Mia's first cousin! I'm glad that she won't be very much older than him/her. Congratulations you guys!

I have been asked about Mia's room because we never posted pictures of it when we finished it. We love how her room turned out. The butterflies, flowers, and dragonflies are so adorable without being "girlie overload". Plus, the nursery will work just as well for the next baby whether it's a boy or a girl. The walls are green, so we'll just buy different bedding. There won't be another baby for a long time, but we like to plan ahead.

Sweet potatoes...yummy!
