This little lady turns 4 today!
I can't believe how big she's grown! I remember holding her in my arms while she starred back at me with bubbles between her lips.
I was amazed at her then, and even move so today!

2011 Mia Visits for Christmas
This year's Christmas ranks amongst my to 5 for many reasons. Here are just a few!
Scroll to the bottom of my blog to pause the music and then play each video!
Arriving at the Airport
You wanna open it?
And here are some pictures from the weekend!
Wyatt, Mia and Nike landed at Terminal 2 at 10:30 Christmas morning. When we got to Mom's we made a GIANT breakfast of eggs, sausage and waffles.
After cleaning the Kitchen, with the aid of big helper Mia, we moved to the living room for gift opening. All faired well, but what a treat to watch a 3 year old open Christmas gifts.
We spent the afternoon watching Mia play with her gifts and then about 5, we ate dinner! We were all bursting at the seams. Thanks Mom for a great meal!
On Monday, Wyatt sequestered himself to the garage giving my mom's car an overhaul. New breaks, an oil change and new wiper blade - oh yeah and a car wash. And he had perfect weather for it too! 50 degrees in December! Who knew....
I arrived at Moms about noon, just enough time to watch Mia play some more. Barb got off of work early, so she came over to Mom's also!
About 4pm, I took off and headed back to Minneapolis to pick up Rob and bring him back to Mom's to meet the whole family! We had meatloaf, veggies and then some Indonesian cookies for dessert! Nummy!!!
As I was leaving for the night, Mia screams out: "I love you...I LOVE YOU MUCH!"
Heart melting right!!!
As for rest of the week: Mom has Wednesday and Thursday off this week, so she'll get more Grandma time. I have Wednesday afternoon off and Barb is playing it by ear - hoping to get more time in with Mia and Nike before they head home on Thursday. (Wyatt left this morning.)
Overall - the weekend went VERY well - and we're looking forward to the new year!

Mia's in town....
And we had Auntie/Niece day yesterday.
First, we woke up to a Thunderstorm. That was a bit scary. Then we had breakfast, Cherrio's, Juice, Banana's and Strawberries. It took us 45 - 50 minutes to eat breakfast because one of us was more interested in watching the garbage truck and fighting with her aunt.
Then we took a bath and played in the tub for about 40 minutes.
At 11:30, we were packing up the car to head to the Como Zoo to see the Monkeys.
Then it was time to head to McDonalds for some lunch, ice cream and time on their playground.
After about an hour of silly time, we headed to Target to buy some new sparkly shoes, a new watch, coloring book and reading books. That was fun! If Mia could, I think she would have bought one of everything.
Our last stop before heading home was the park by Grandma's house. Mia loves the park - especially the bumpy slide and all of the dandilions. Here is some artwork!

Here's a video of how this was created!
When Grandma got home, we had macaroni and cheese with our hamburgers. And we ended the night learning how to put on our new shoes.
What an adventure!
(More pictures to come sometime in the next week!)
