Mia and Papa Building Together

Mia our little engineer loves to build towers or in this case they call them sand castles. This one took a creative flair with Sonja inside the tower.

Butde and Papa Visit

So Butde and Papa came to visit to check out the new church building. As always we loved having them here.

On Saturday, Dan decided to take both girls to McDonalds in place of the one on one breakfast and to ask Papa to join them. They had a great time. The McDonalds staff now recognizes them as regulars and has started giving the girls toys. So this is how the happy meal stuff starts.

Hat and Slippers

Two of Mia's favorite things to wear: her bucket hat and her slippers. She always has to come model them for me when she puts them on. Sorry about the lack of pants in the picture.

Imaginations at Work

So one of the girls new things is to play mommy and baby. Brianna is usually the mommy and Mia is the baby. They love to play it upstairs in their room. Mia will get in her bed and Brianna will tell her "good night, I love you" and leave the room and close the door. Mia will then start crying and Brianna will say "I'll get you" come back into the room and go hold Mia. Then they start all over again. It is so cute.

Well this particular day baby Mia was crying and so Brianna told that she would hold her. She went and sat on the floor and them Mia got in her lap. Hadley of course tried to play as well.

Hadley

So Hadley is totally changing from our sweet, easy going, compliant baby to a strong willed, feisty thing with quite a temper. She had her first time out yesterday. Needless to say it didn't really work. It just made her madder.

But at the same time it is so fun to watch the light bulb going on in her head. She loves to read books and do anything that her sisters do. Our doctor at her 1 year appointment said that our current goal is to just keep her alive. That she is going to start trying to climb things like her sister. I thought current goal....that has been the goal since the day she was born.
