Mia ate toast and three servings of cantaloupe for breakfast.  I was tightening her bib at breakfast and got some hair caught - it's hard NOT to do that!!  I said, "Sorry!!"  Mia said, "Not your fault!"  Ha ha! Very cute.  She says some of the funniest things!  I knew she wanted some cinnamon/sugar on her toast and she was trying hard to remember the right words.  "I want I want I want..french toast!"  LOL!   For lunch she ate LOTS!  :)  Turkey burger, dinner roll, two large servings of green beans, and two large servings of mangoes.

I was giving Baby Sophie some tummy time in front of the mirror and Mia got her blanket and laid on it too.  She said, "I'm laying on my blankie too!"  I've been giving Mia lots of extra loves this week - those new babies take lots of attention!  Mia has been doing so good all week and I'm very proud of her.  Especially considering Cooper has been gone too.  Today Mia randomly said, "Cooper will be back on halloween!"

Mia decorated her mini-pumpkin at Art Time.  She colored on it for a few SHORT moments, then put tape and stickers on it.  I have some more for her and Cooper to do again tomorrow.  (Thanks to Baby Elliott's Mom.)

Some Mia quotes from this morning:
     I told Lauralea that I found some gross legos yesterday in the legos drawer where Baby Elliott had
     "spit up!"  Mia heard me say that and she was playing with some legos!  :)  She said, "Which one
     is grosses - I'm using the legos right now?!?!""
     I examined her hair after I fixed it and said, "I did a nice job on your hair!"  Mia replied, "Yes, it's
     beautiful!!"  Ha!  We were in full agreement!
     She was trying to be pouty and I said she needed to put on a happy face.  A minute later she
     replied, "I'm happy as a lark!!"  Ha!  (From one of our Special Books - "I'm as quick as a
     Cricket!")
