Another great visit from her Grandparents


Current mood: relaxed

How come the weeks go by fast and the weekends go by even faster?! Its pretty crazy! We got a special visit from Mia's Grandpa and Grandma Pizano this weekend, and it was lots of fun. They came down early on Saturday and left in the late afternoon today.

Mia had a blast seeing them again. She had not seen her Grandpa since late last month and had not seen her Grandma since Christmas! After they got settled in, Mia got to show off some of her new dance moves. We played all her favorite songs on the TV and she danced and danced. Then she discovered how to spin in circles until she got dizzy and pretty soon thats all she did!!! She did fall a couple of times but it still didn't detour her... shes alittle dancing machine. Eventually she pooped herself out and all she wanted to do afterward was cuddle with her Grandma. So they got alot of bonding time in.

She was also showered with gifts! She got a new talking Elmo book AND a blueberry muffin (her favorite)! She was treated like royalty the rest of the visit. She even got to stay up until almost 11!!! which never happens, but she made up for the missed sleep and didn't wake up until 11 the next day! WHOA! haha

Mia also managed to shock us all later that night. We had Yo Gabba Gabba playing on the TV while we were all sitting around visiting. Mia was playing in the livingroom and watching her show when she noticed something. My Mom forgot to move the mouse cursor so the TV was still showing the media player bar across the bottom of the screen. Mia went up to it, poked it with her toys a bit then took off on in mad dash! At first we thought she was going to run to my Dad who was calling her but she ran past him and my mom and ran straight for the computer. She found the mouse, moved the cursor so the bar would disappear, then ran back to the livingroom, checked the TV to make sure it was gone, then cheered and clapped happily! We all stopped what we were doing in complete shock on what we just saw. My Dad and I were still alittle skeptical so he got up and moved the mouse again to show the bar and sure enough.. Mia noticed it, ran over to the computer, moved the mouse while looking over the couch and when the bar disappeared she ran back and finished watching her show! WOW! Talk about a smart baby! I just sat there on the couch beaming with pride.

Overall the visit was awesome. My Mom and Dad took Mia to IHOP with them to get some food to bring back to the house and they all had fun there as well. The one thing they love to do it to show off their little Granddaughter and beam with pride with all the compliments they get from strangers. Mia came back with a balloon in each hand and as happy as can be. We all ate breakfast together (Mia sitting at the table with us for the first time) and chatted and visited some more.

The rest of the visit was spent spoiling Mia and when the time came to say goodbye it was sad. Mia literally had a sad face as she watched her Grandparents drive away and cried once we brought her back into the house. It was sad but we know they will be back soon. As of now, since she is now in bed, its time for Adrian and I to relax and watch a movie. He already has the fireplace going so I am off to go get warm and rest with my hubby!! What a great weekend!!!!!!
