Current mood: exhausted
If waking up to a 4.3 earthquake this morning at 4am wasn't enough, it sure didn't help that after getting Mia up for the day we saw something horrible outside in the front yard. A little orange cat (the neighbors cat) was chasing and maiming a tiny helpless little bird. Mia decided then she would try out a new word and said "Birdie!" I was shocked. I got her to say it a couple more times before she decided to stop. I couldn't figure out how she knew that word without me even saying it... then I remembered. One of her favorite toys she got from her Nina and Nino for Christmas was a tiny light up/singing bird we call "Birdie". She loves this toy and often times takes it to bed with her. She knows what it is, all you have to say is "find your birdie... wheres your birdie?" and she will find it and carry it with her. So now we can add "Birdie/Bird" to her vocabulary list.
Later, I gave her a banana to munch on. She was havin a good ol' time chowing down and playing with her toys. Then she got behind me and started playing with my hair. I couldn't see her and thought maybe she was running her hands through my hair (thats what it felt like). I didn't mind... then something urged me to look over my shoulder and I am glad I did! Mia was not running her hands through my hair, but instead running her banana through my hair!! YUCK!!! My hair was being brushed by a sticky, nasty banana!!! Sigh.. Mia!!!
The rest of the morning was pretty good. I was very sleepy and didn't have much energy to chase her around so I put on some Gabba for her to watch. While she was zombafied I took the opprotunity to put some of my plants from my indoor garden outside to get some sunshine. I didn't think she noticed I stepped away for a few seconds but she did!! When I came back inside she was sitting all innocent on the family room cough holding a big fat pair! "Where did you get that?!" I wondered.. then I remembered. Adrian had brought the pair home from work since he didn't eat it and left it on the table. Mia, of course, waited until I was out of the room, got up and snatched the pair for herself. She seemed really excited with the pair so I didn't take it from her. I didn't think she would eat much of it since she loves to waste food. I was wrong.. she actually ate the WHOLE pair!! And that sucker was BIG too!!! I was shocked! She was all content and after finishing the massive pair she played some more until Dada got up.
Now its alittle after noon and Mia and Adrian are napping. I am going to go nap myself, I just wanted to share those little stories before I did. Hmm... I wonder what other weird stuff is in store for us today????
