Happy 1st Birthday, Little Miss Mia!

It is hard to believe that our baby girl is officially ONE year old! The past year has flown by, and we are having the best time watching Mia grow. Emma and Hannah especially love watching her reach new milestones and play with them more.  Their patience with her amazes me, and Mia just adores them.  Every morning she crawls down the hall to their bedroom to wake them up...it's the cutest thing ever.

Mia had her 12 month well check at the doctor this morning, and is doing great! She weighs 21.5 pounds and is 29.5 inches long.  The doctor was quite impressed with all the words she knows.  She says "bye-bye, mama, dada, ba-ba, boo, mema (Emma), dat (that)." 

Our hungry girl continues to be an amazing eater.  There hasn't been anything she won't eat so far! She loves bananas, spaghetti, mac and cheese, quesadillas, and more.  Her birthday cake was a hit too (the girls helped show her how to go for the frosting first...haha). Mia is officially off formula and drinking whole milk...yay! 

Sweet Mia's little sense of humor has really come out. She loves to tease, play peek-a-boo, and make her cute little scrunch face to make your laugh.  She stays busy with her library and Gymboree classes, and loves cruising around on the patio with Emma and Hannah.  She is not walking yet, but gets around quickly by cruising the furniture and crawling.  She uses anything and everything (chairs, etc.) as walkers and pushes them around the house.  For the past month she has been letting go to stand by herself, but when she realizes she's not supported she drops to her knees.  Maybe over the next month we will see her take her first steps. ;)  

We hope all is well with our family and friends. xo
