Mia ate half of her malt-o-meal cereal and most of her raisins for breakfast.  For lunch she ate half of her ground beef, ate a large serving of shell noodles topped with shredded cheese, a taste of lettuce salad, and ate mixed fruit.  At breakfast she wanted to put her raisins in her cereal, but she remembered to ask me first.  She said, "Can I put my strawberries in here please?" as she was pointing to her cereal.  :)  Yes you can and thanks for asking.  Riley said, "Strawberries!?!"

The kids built the 'L' shaped block structure you see in the picture.  (I never touched a block!)  Nora primarily worked on the corner and Riley stretched it out in both directions.  Then Riley decided it was their swimming pool.  She said, "Ok!  Everyone line up! Get your swimsuit on!!  Get in the water!!"  :)   Riley was so focused when she was building this.  Mia was trying to get her attention and it went like this; "Help me Riley, help me!"  "I can't!"said Riley.   "You can't?" asked Mia.  "I can't!" Riley answered.  LOL

Nora was laying in the big box and Mia was the mommy.  Nora was yelling, "Help me Mommy, help me Mommy!"  Mia said, "Ok, I'm coming!"  Nora said she was cold and wanted Mia to cover her with a blanket, but Mia had used all the blankets on the dolls.  Mia said, "Ok, be careful!  I put cream on your butt!!"  LOL  I have no idea what that was about and by the look on Nora's face I think she was puzzled too!  :)

The birds have started coming to the bird feeder more often and Mia and Cooper have been watching them a lot.  They'll eat at the feeder and then fly to the fence and sit there too.  Mia said, "They so cute!"

Here are some Mia-isms from this morning:
I was wanting Nora's attention and I said, "Mia-Nora!"  Mia really laughed and said, "You said Mia-Nora!"
I yawned big and Mia said, "I tired!"  I laughed and she immediately said, "I not tired!"
Mia and I were looking at a mosquito on the outside of the window and Mia said, "Butterfly!"
She said, "I do puzzles pul-ease!"  (please with 2 syllables) She does one puzzle and said, "I don't like puzzles!"
