It's been nearly a month since our last post and I don't know where the time has gone. For starters, it's been filled with chasing a one and a half year old kid! Miss Mia is quite the independent little lady these days, but still a smiley, happy child. Her favorite things to talk about are doggies, birdies, saying her prayers, Elmo, airplanes and "oh wow!" her new Barbie Jeep. The first time she saw it, we got the..."Oh, wow! What's that?!" This is right before the foot was extended to climb aboard. We'll get some pictures posted of the new vehicle soon - maybe I should ask Kim for insurance? :)
Mia just started reading her books out loud, although only she knows what's she's saying. I watched her as she moved her fingers across the words while pretending to read tonight, so someone is quickly picking up the gist. 
Here's a photo of her first "owie" which happened while she was running away from me on the sidewalk...yes, I saw it all happen and I'm sure there will be more opportunities to come. I just hope they are few and far between. Happy summer, everyone! (I think it's finally here at last)
