Week 79!


Current mood: content

Happy Friday Everyone!!!! I have Mia zombafied in front of the TV watching her Elmo, so I think I will be able to write her weekly review blog now.

The horrible "Cardoso Family Cold" has finally let up. We are not longer "sick" but we still have small signs that we were sick. Mostly with the congestion and coughing. Each day is getting better and better though, and we are much better than last week! YAY!

So to celebrate our wellness we decided to take Mia to the Temecula Duck Pond to run around this past weekend. It so happened that it marked the 1 year anniversary that we took her there for the first time. (The Duck Pond is very special place for us and holds alot of significance for us) So taking her there, as always, was lots of fun and special. She ran all over the grass, tried to shake trees, and of course tried to run into the street.

Mia also shocked me this week by eating a new forbidden snack! Yes, I caught her with the cat bowl and munching out on cat food!!!! YUUUUUCK! I know I know!!! She liked it too!! and was not to happy when I took it from her. I now have to keep a closer eye on her.. even more than I already do!

Mia also hit a HUGE milestone this week.... she officially turned a year and a half!!!! Thats right, my little one is now 18 months old!! I can't believe how fast time has flown by! I am so proud of her though, she is growing up to be a very beautiful, smart and fun little girl!

Daddy took her to the park to play and so did I. The weather was nice for awhile so we took full advantage of that. When I took her to the park, it wasn't planned but she made me haha, I was so surprised by the fact that she is so independent at the playground now. She can climb up the jungle gym, play all by herself up there, and get back down by herself without any help!! I said it before and I will say it again, my little girl is growing up too fast!!!

I also took her down to see the Emu down the road a bit. It was a nice walk for us and she seemed to really enjoy looking at all the animals. They had a llama, Emu, Ducks, Pig, chickens and goats! We even saw a spotted ground Owl with a ground squirrel!! We had lots of fun and I wanted to take her back again but the weather has become really cold and chilly again... so maybe another time when the weather warms up a bit.

Thats about it for the week... well at least of what I can think of at the top of my head. Overall its been fun and I am glad we are all finally feeling better and have recovered from that horrible cold. Its supposed to be really stormy this weekend so I don't think that we will be going out to much (I would HATE to have us all relapse after finally kicking this cold) but we can still have fun cuddling at home with the warm fireplace going. I am looking forward to that!!! See you next time!
