Mia ate half of her bran cereal and ate dried cranberries for breakfast.  For lunch she ate half of her cheese pizza, ate corn, and ate tropical fruit.  At the lunch table Riley's cup fell on the floor and Mia quickly jumped down and picked it up for her.  She said, "I be good friend to Riley and Nora!"  It obviously made her feel good while being a helper!

The kids were gathered around Lauralea watching her put on some make-up in front of the mirror.  Lauralea was passing around some of the make-up for the kids and each of them were getting a turn with each part.  Riley had already passed three of them on to Mia and Mia kept saying, "Can you share with me, can you share with me, can you share with me.....!?!"  Riley finally said, "No; no way!!"  It was pretty funny!

Mia played with the dolls and blankets and was using an "ice cream cone" to feed her baby.  She read lots of books and played with the building blocks with Riley.  They were inside a block structure they'd built and Riley was examining Mia's nose.  She said, "You have boogies!!"  Mia said, "I don't have boogies!!"  Then outside Cooper kept saying, "Bug bug bug bug....!"  Mia finally said, "I don't see a bug!!"  (I didn't either!)

Mia was pretty exhausted by 11:00.  We were playing outside and she went over and was just laying on the bench on the patio and every little thing was upsetting her.  (Those three day weekends are exhausting!!)  :)  So we ate a little early and she was asleep quickly.  Several times she was crying - "Cooper hit me, Cooper hit me, Cooper hit me!"  I was watching pretty closely; especially after the first time and it was true some of the time and some of the time he was just passing by and barely bumped her.  But she's in the middle of a good nap right now, so that will help a bunch!!
