We took Mia to Disney on Ice Saturday afternoon.
This was the look on her face the whole time.
I wondered if she was too young, but she was
perfect. I brought her booster seat which was a
good idea because she could see much better.
Rick and Mia during the intermission. Do you see
her bear? We can't go ANYWHERE without him.
I've looked online EVERYWHERE for a replacement
in case he in lost or falls apart (knock on wood)
I bought 2 online, spent lots of money and neither
were the same size. I kept one who is much larger
because I had no choice and then I get a call from
the manufacturer that they just don't make him anymore.
Back to Disney on Ice, we kept her busy with Skittles,
fries and chicken fingers, Sprite, and snowcone.
Afer each performance, she would yell, YAY
and clap.
Note Mia's face: big eyes and entertained.
Note Rick's face: too funny
At the end they did Tinkerbell and Mia HATES
fairies, I don't know why but she hates cartoons
with fairies too. So she kept saying okay mom,
bye I'm going home , bye. It was funny.
Sidenote: Rick's ex girlfriend happened to run
into us as we were finding our seat and of course
she was 2 rows behind us the whole time. Annoying!

Mia is major sick and that's why I haven't posted.
She caught a major caugh and we tried to avoid it
but obviously it didn't work. 5 days of a fever, caugh,
and finally got to the doctor and she has now developed
a double ear infection from the caugh, so antibiotics later.
Anyway, who says a cat isn't a man's best friend. This is
what he does when Mia is sick.
We don't do this to Spock, he does it to himself.

Seriously?



Mia said, "I want to go sit in the rain with my hat."
so we sat outside to watch the rain, and Spock
thought he was invited too.
Girls Just Want to Have Fun! Doesn't this
look like a Cindy Lauper get up?

Happy girl
We went to Town Square and Mia loved all the slides.

I LOVE this picture of Mia,
Aunt Bre took it on her new camera that
we are all jealous of. It's my new favorite pic
of her.
This I love- she LOVES her new piano.
Can you tell?

I stole this pic from my sister's
blog- again taken on Bre's camera
I love Mia's look on her face!
Here's my hubby going head first from
the top- it's amazing how the older you get,
you get afraid of things- I used to jump off
40 ft waterfalls in college and I am scared
when I sled down a hill now, or ride a plane,
or even stand on my ladder trying to take
down tree decorations. What is my problem?
Mia with dad and her cozy outfit that Dustin
got her- look close, she doesn't have fingers because
she refused to wear her gloves so they got flipped up in the sweater
and she kept saying, "oh no mom,
where did my hands go?" Perfect gift Dustin :)

I forgot to tell the story of Christmas Eve, Rick went outside Mia's
window and jingled Santa bells like his dad did when he was little. Mia
literally jumped up on all fours and looked out the window and whispered
in this tiny little voice, "Santa?" I said, what was that Mia, "She whispered,
"Santa's Reindeer mom." I couldn't believe it. It brought tears to my eyes, I know that
is silly, but I love the whole idea of Santa and the hopes and dreams along with it.
We have been reading, watching,and playing with Santa stuff all month, but she actually got it, and we wished that we would have gotten it on video. Of course, Rick wasn't too happy when
she was awake ALL NIGHT long giggling, yelling for Santa, and singing every song she knows.
But it was worth it!!!

Before Church: Christmas is over
but here are all the pics from the last few
weeks.
We love having everyone here at my
mom's. We don't know when we will all
be together again.

Thanks to the hubbies, all the girls went out.
It was fun.
I love having sisters and an amazing mom
I've very lucky!





Day after Christmas- Mia at grandma's in Hailey's
fun beauty parlor
pretty girl

I love the look on Mia's face- Cousin Scott
got this awesome jeep- Nicole and Kev totally
did it because they always wanted one as a kid
and never could have it. Scott was very proud
as he drove Mia around.
she just loves it and is holding on tight
still loves the piano too!





After getting to my mom's, Mia had a present
meltdown. This is the final result. She was exhausted
and put her bear on her head to go to sleep right
on the living room floor. She also told me, Mom ,
I need a nap!! - never heard those words before.
this is the meltdown before the nap comment

she was a trooper
all the guys in their new jammies Christmas
morning and their EXCITING gifts from my dad
SPOILED!!!
Hailey got a new beauty parlor and Mia was
checking it out. She is so excited to be with her cousins
for Christmas. Everyone is here at my mom's and I love it!!






It was a lot of fun being in our own house for Christmas.
