Current mood: sleepy
Happy Friday!!! I really need to start writing these blogs in the morning again because by the end of the day I am so drained I hardly have the energy to write. I will see what I can remember, hopefully I will remember everything.
Well the week started off with a bang! Mia was officially crown a "Queen" as she took home the Toddler Miss City of Menifee title. I entered her in her very first (and quite possibly LAST) pageant and she won!!! It was no easy feat either... thankfully Dada came to the rescue and kept her pretty calm. I am so proud of my little girl!
We also took her to the Temecula duck pond this past weekend. She had a blast chasing ducks and trying to dive into the pond! She loves to explore and found out how much fun running up and down hills is... well to little kids that is, not for parents who have to chase them up and down haha
Mia also got to taste her very first homemade tortilla! I have been meaning to write a quick blog about this but these last couple of days I have had a relapse of my pregnancy sickness/tiredness so I haven't had the chance. Well anyways, for years I have wanted to learn how to make homemade tortillas. I have many fond memories of my own Grandma making them when I was little. I really didn't want to see that tradition die. Unfortunately neither of Mia's Grandma's know how to make tortillas so I made it my mission to find out so she would be able to experience what I did growing up. So I got a recipe online and made some. They actually came out pretty decent. I still need to tweek it a bit but they were still pretty good. Mia fell in love with them and demands one everytime I take them out. I can't wait until we can make them together!
She is also becoming more expressive. She is starting to finally use more words and is coming out of her shyness shell a bit (with talking that is). Every week she seems to be saying new words, and though she may not pronounce them very well, you can still understand what she is trying to say. I am so proud of her!
Well thats about it for now. I know I am alittle behind on uploading some recent pictures but that is myspace's fault. Since I have that new camera (12 mega-pixle) myspace uploader has been having a fit and won't let me upload most of my pictures until I compress them. Ugh!!! Hopefully I will be able to catch up this weekend. As for now I am off to bed, night night!!
