Mia ate whole wheat english muffin and blueberries for breakfast.  For lunch she ate chicken and crackers, hash browns, and cherries.

Mia was playing and crawling behind the block wall again.  (The picture in yesterday's blog.)  I could see her "whale spout" moving around.  :)  That was cute.  The block wall was pushed up against the
back room wall and Mia wanted behind there.  So she just starts sliding it away from the wall.  It didn't matter that Thomas was sitting on top of it.  Tough little critter!  :)

She was sitting in the chair and Nora was behind the chair.  They were peeking around at each other and giggling and squealing.

Then she was sitting in the swivel-rocker and riding solo while Thomas and Emily were pushing and spinning it.  Then Emily said to Thomas, "Now it's your turn!"  Except Mia didn't understand that part!    "I'm here! You guys just keep pushing!"  :)  So I watched to see what would happen.  They got bored with it and soon wandered off and Mia just kept sitting there.  :)

In the big room we have the food toys, etc.. on one side and the mattress and jumping area on the other side.  We keep the toys away from the mattress so the kids don't get hurt and roll on the hard toys.  Anyhow Mia is at the age where we start having them keep the toys on one side.  And she is totally getting what we want!  Nora is just starting to get it.  I'll say, "Keep the toy on that side Mia" (the changing table is the divider) and she'll head right back with it.  (It also helps that all the "older" kids keep them picked up too.  They're totally programmed!)  Except when she starts to get tired and doesn't want to.  I said that once today and she glared at me.  It was hard not to laugh!
