Mia ate two servings of kix cereal and ate mixed fruit for breakfast.  At lunch time she said she did not want to eat.  She sat with us and drank most of her milk, but she wasn't interested in eating.  Both of the Cline children are not feeling well so I'm hoping Mia isn't catching something too!

Riley and Mia played with their dolls for a long time and were using the toy shelves for baby beds.  They frequently laid in there with the dolls too.  Right before I took this picture Riley was doing "Patty Cake" with her baby and it was so cute.

I took this picture of Mia and Nora playing some kind of "store" game.  They were exchanging items in their hands and then talking about "money."  It was very cute and Riley was playing too, but didn't make it into the picture.  Cooper wasn't exactly part of the game, but rather trying to steal merchandise out of the customer's hand!  Also, they were taking turns on each side of the bench.  When Mia walked into the "store" Nora greeted her!  "HI!!"  It's sure fun watching them use dramatic play to re-enact events they have seen.  Super cute.

Shortly before going home yesterday afternoon Nora started calling Mia "Mommy" and Riley "Daddy."  And she immediately started in again as soon as she arrived this morning!  Later I was fixing Mia's hair and when I finished I said, "Ok, you're done!"  Nora yells, "Yea Mommy!"  LOL!  Mia was playing along with the whole thing; Riley, on the other hand, was not real thrilled with her designation!  Are you Nora's Daddy?  "NO!!"  :)

Everyone was watching lots of birds filling several trees across the street.  It's easy to see them in those trees with all the leaves gone!

Cooper climbed into the chair beside Mia and then pointed at the books; wanting her to read him some books or get some for him.  :)  He loves his books!  Of course he was pointing up at the special books which she can't reach, but he was satisfied with the available ones she got for him too!
