So on March 20th Mia officially turned one year old! I felt like we had been celebrating since her party on the 16th....5 day celebration! So for her actual birthday we took her to the zoo with lots of family and friends in tow! It was a great way to celebrate her birthday! Mia loves the zoo!! It was a beautiful day and we all had so much fun. Mia got to sport her super cool new wagon (thanks to Godparents Lupe and Stacy) She LOVES riding in this thing and she really loved having her cousin Veronica riding with her.
I can not believe that a whole year has passed since my little Angel has arrived! It really feels like just yesterday that we were in the hospital and enduring 24hrs of labor, anxiously waiting her arrival! I remember meeting her for the first time and it still makes my heart skip a beat when I think about it. She has brought so much joy to my life and she inspires me everyday...she inspires me to be a better person, to enjoy every moment, and not to sweat the small stuff. I can not imagine life without her!
Mia seems to learn something new everyday. She is not walking yet, but should be soon. She started daycare on March 24th and is still adjusting, but doing fine. It is a great school and she will learn so much from there. She is signing for "more" and learning other signs as well. She says "mama" "dada" "apple" and my mom and I know for sure we heard her say "elmo" when she was handed an Elmo book, but she has not said it since :) She eats EVERYTHING as long as it is big people food, no more baby food for her, and you can not fool her either! LOL She is pretty much done with her bottle too, she only has one bottle a day (at bedtime) and she could probably even be without that one but it is mommy's way of getting a few more ounces of milk in her that she does not get from her sippy cup. She will drink everything from her sippy, except milk, for some reason. She is a true joy and an all around happy kid! She loves her mommy and daddy very much and it makes my day to see her face light up when she sees us!
Here are a few pics from her Birthday Celebration at the Houston Zoo:
