Mia's pretty smile. She's 18 months old now and is as big as ever. She says, "I love you" and countless other words. She sleeps in a toddler bed now too.

While visiting with Ron and Mary last week, I took some really great pitcures of them and the kids while at Gage park.

Mommy, Daniel, and Mia.

Mia wasn't very happy in this picture, but Daniel makes up for it.

Mommy and Mia. Mia was a little grumpy so we didn't get that many pitcures of Mia. When we got home, she ate a ton of food, so I guess she was hungry. Hunger is a constant state for Mia.

Daniel and Mommy. Daniel was being photogenic that day, so we got lots of pictures of Daniel!

Say "Cheese!"

Going down the slide!

Daniel has recently learned some really fun new expressions. Now he says things like, "I guess so," while shrugging his shoulders; or "Mmmm, OK,"; or "Pleased to meet you," while shaking your hand. Today while we were shopping in SAMS, he put his arms around me and said, "I'm going to miss you," and gave me a big hug and kiss as if we were parting for a long journey or something. Like all 2 year olds, his favorite is, "What's that, Mommy?"

The picture is a little fuzzy, but I love the hat that she was wearing that day. I can't believe how much older she is starting to look. My baby is gone and now I have a beautiful toddler.
