It is January but not to cold to be at the beach. The sun was shining but the breeze was a little chilly. Mike wanted to go surf fishing and test out his new Christmas present, so Mia and I joined him. Mia and I had a liitle picnic and then went for a walk. We fed the seagulls some of her cheese puffs and she was just looking around at the swarm of birds coming our way. Mia enjoyed sitting in the sand and throwing handfuls up in the air. Much to our surprise, she never put any in her mouth. When we got home and I changed her diaper, I found more sand :) . At times she would dart toward the shore to get her feet wet. What a workout! Long gone are the days of sitting in the beach chair reading a book!!!!

Remember to Brush Before Bed!!

Our Little Hula Girl

The sun was shining and a little chilly for the pool, but perfect for a little misting from the hose. The suit was a little big, but I couldn't refuse!

Mia's New Helmet......

Mia is starting to ride her tricycle and because she is a little wobbly getting on and off, Mike and I decided to introduce her to her first helmet. When we went shopping for it, we tried it on in the store and she cried bloody murder when we put in on her head. We were hysterically laughing at her, she looked so cute with it on and she hated it at first. We decided to put in on when she was playing in the house and she didn't mind it to much. We let her push herself around and she doesn't even notice the helmet anymore.

Happy Birthday Daddy ! ! !

Mia loves her Daddy and she LOVES when we read books to her. She points to her bookshelf and says "Book" over and over. When we go to reach for the book she get so excited and starts to giggle as if we were tickling her. She is non-stop, I was thinking of hooking a pedometer to her and seeing how much walking she does a day. She is so playful and mischievous at the same time. We can't turn our heads for one second with her!

Happy New Year !

Well 2006 was a wonderful year with LOTS of excitement in our lives. The most joyous day was being united with our precious daughter Mia. She has truly blossomed and makes us laugh everyday. We love our new home and look forward to spending many years here. We have created many new friendships and cherish the relationships that we have shared with our friends throughout the years, who seem more like family to us.

Mia loves her family and really enjoys the time she spends with them. Although some family live far away, they try to visit as much as they can and we hope to go visiting them soon too!

I hope 2007 brings as much happiness to everyone as 2006 has brought to us. We wish you all a Happy and Healthy 2007.
