Mia is officially 10 months old which is so hard for me to believe. It just doesn't seem that long. But all of the sudden, we have a little girl around here instead of a baby.
We have been officially crawling for a week and a half. Each day she gets faster and faster and more daring. This morning when I put her down on the floor in her room she immediately crawled under her dresser and then in the closet just to check things out. Between the crawling, walking while pushing her car, and pulling up on almost everything she is one busy girl these days...and so I am as we are trying to child proof as much as we can. In other news, Mia has decided that since she is a big girl in other ways that she wants nothing to do with baby food or anything on a spoon unless it's baby yogurt (apparently that is still considered big girl food). She is also talking up a storm although most things are just "da da". If you point to the cow in the book and say "cow", she says "da da" no matter how many times you repeat "cow". My favorite display of the use of this word comes when reading one of her favorite books. See below.
Moo, Baa, La La La by Sandra Boynton
A cow says moo.
A sheep says baa.
Three singing pigs say la la la!
No, no you say that isn't right.
The pigs say oink all day and night.
Rhinoceroses snort and snuff
and little dogs go ruff ruff ruff.
Some other dogs go bow wow wow.
And cats and kittens say meow!
Quack! Says the duck.
A horse says neigh.
It's quiet now, what do you say? Mia--- "DA DA"
Without fail she says it every time. Mia is also dancing up a storm and you have to go check out the video link on the right hand side for the new videos because they are too funny. Ok, that's all till next week!
Side note- Welcome to Ben Levy who entered the world last night! Congratulations Joel and Monica!

Christmas morning at grandma and grandpa's was lots of fun.
Then we had Christmas afternoon at Great Grandma's and Great Grandpa's. Mia had so many presents she had to open them both before and after a nap!
Mia had her first sled ride...which she wasn't a big fan of!
We went to feed the ducks for the first time when it warmed up and all the snow melted.
And a Christmas trip would not be complete without Mia's first snow storm the day before we left. Judging by Mia's noises when out in the cold she is also very thankful we live in North Carolina.
