June 14, 2006:  Happy birthday grandma!  Today is grandma Karen's birthday.  Last weekend was daddy's birthday and next
month is mommy's birthday.  Fun, fun, fun!  We have been very busy this last month... Mommy finished with teaching, daddy has
been fishing a ton, we had "Auntie Cari" come visit for a week from MN, we went to Key West, we are in the midst of paperwork and
social worker visits to bring Liby home, and oh so much more!  Mia has been into... running around the house naked, jumping on
the bed, ripping off diapers to pee on the floor, repeating every word she hears, small temper tantrums (the terrific twos are
beginning!), eating m&m's (she loves the blue ones), swimming, beating up the dog (poor Stella!), and climbing on whatever she
can climb on!  You will be able to see some of our ongoings in the photos below.  We are off to MN this Saturday for a very nice,
long visit with family and friends.  I will post more at the end of the month once we arrive home and are settled.  Ta-ta for now.
Two favorite funs:  Beach time and
jumping on the bed!

The Cheerios Incident:  
Mommy turned her back for a
second so I decided to help
myself to some Cheerios from
the pantry.  It was a lot of fun
throwing them around and
eating them off of the ground.  
Need anything from the grocery store?

of our beautiful Mia.
Can we go to McDonald's tomorrow Mommy?  
I love playing
peek-a-boo and
trying on my
hats, hats, hats!


I'm Home!
Trying on Daddy's boxers!
My first McDonald's Happy Meal...  What is in the box?  Some
french fries and weird looking nuggets.  Looks interesting...  
maybe I'll try a bite.  Ummmm... not really sure about these
brown nuggets.  Hey!  I do love them!  I love McDonald's Happy
Meals Mommy!
