Miss Mia is growing and growing and growing! She is learning new things everyday, she is the NOSIEST little girl! She is constantly wondering what everyone is doing including Ivy.  She is learning that Ivy will be her best friend, Miss Ivy gives her love and kisses and Mia just giggles every time she gets a kiss from her.  She is trying very hard to sit up on her own, she can tripod for a few seconds so I don't think it will be long until she is sitting up! Also, the last few days when she is laying on her tummy I have noticed that she is trying to get her knees underneath her.  Lou and I ARE NOT looking forward to her crawling....we have decided she is going to be a busy bee :)

Mia LOVES to eat, she gets to try a new fruit or veggie usually about once a week, so far she has had: bananas, pears, rice cereal, avocado, peas, carrots, sweet potato and squash.  When she eats her peas she literally gags then down! It is rather hilarious! Grammy discovered that if you mix them with sweet potatoes she will eat them without gagging :)


Mia has grown so much, she has outgrown her baby bathtub and now uses a BIG girl tub and her froggy robe that Aunt Anne got her!
