Exersaucer Success!

We wish you a Merry Christmas...

Merry Christmas Everybody!!

My Mom and Dad are being really funny this morning....

Mom and Dad think I'm cute even when I drooling on Abuela.

Dad's camera took a really bad shot, but the expression on my face says it all!

I sure do love my mom!

Getting a little thoughtfull....

Holy schmoley, these people are hilarious!

Opening presents with Mom and Dad...

What Saturday Nights are Like Now

What's happenin'?

Mom, stop being stupid.

Okay, this was really unnecessary.

My Daddy really loves me. A lot.

Don't we look alike?

Muhahahaha. I have him wrapped around my finger.

Superbaby!!!

We Met Santa Claus!!!

We just got back from meeting the coolest man on earth, Mr. Santa! My dad, Maria, Abuela and Abuelo tagged along for the ride. Mia was a real trooper - just smiling and taking it all in. And this is even after being poked awake from her nap. The photographer said next year is when she'll probably scream. I have to admit, sensitive Mommy got a little teary-eyed watching her sit on Santa's lap. This is just one of those things I've always pictured in my mind, and suddenly there I was - with my very own daughter meeting Santa Claus. Pretty surreal!

More fun with Chili

Punk Rock Chica

Mia's hair pretty much thinned out except for a strip down the middle - so funny.

Daddy does my hair.

Not sure what to do with this rice cereal stuff.

Watching Ma make dinner.

4 Months Old Today!

Our little lady is getting so big! She weighs in at 14 lbs. (61st percentile) and is 26" long (97th percentile). She received her next rounds of shots and was so brave! Doc thinks she's teething. Unfortunately Mia turned into Cranky McCrankenstein around 6pm - the next 3 hours were rough. Poor thing was probably just having some achiness/yuckiness from the vaccinations. Or is it the teething? Or did someone just have a case of the Mondays? Daddy gets back in town Wednesday. Mommy can't wait.

New things she's figuring out:

• Rolling to one side - can't quite get all the way over, but she's getting close!
• Toys are way cooler now
• Chili cracks her up
• Kenya, well she's not really sure what she thinks about Kenya
• Christmas lights are awesome
• Toes are lots of fun to play with

Day at the P-A-R-K

I think Chili is the pack leader here.

We have a pet horse and pet penguin!

Our little cherub.
