25 Year Rewind

My mom gave me a dress awhile back that she said was mine when I was a little girl. I couldn't resist trying it on Mia. I love that Mia goes with the flow when I want to dress her up and take pictures. I'll bet she likes to play dress-up when she gets older.

Mom and Rachel came down here to Dallas to watch Mia a couple of weeks ago. Wesley and I spent the entire night at an American Cancer Society fundraiser. It was fun but exhausting. I got home around 7am. Mom, Rach, Mia, and I then went over to a community yard sale at the park. There was a lot of baby stuff for sale, and Rach made out like a bandit. After I'd had a nap, the four of us let Wesley sleep. We went over to Arlington for some shopping. We got Rachel loaded up at Babies R Us. Grammy also bought Mia a purple Tinkerbell rocking chair there. Mia loves it! She likes to grab a book or a snack and curl up in her chair. Like mother, like daughter. It's really adorable! She alternates between her Tinkerbell chair and her Elmo chair.

I've been working with Mia on a couple of animal sounds. We both like to growl like bears. When I try to get her to sound like a monkey, I say, " Oo oo, ah ah". Mia says " Oo ah, oo ah, oo ah." Hmm, maybe I'd better get that on video. It doesn't translate very cleary to written form. You just have to hear it!
