This has actually been a bit of a slow weekend. Kevin has had to work a ton this weekend with a DUI checkpoint on Friday night and then he has to work Sunday all day and Monday all day so, we did not have a ton of plans. Mia and I went to a baby shower today and Kevin took Owen and his pal Kasey (Ethan is in San Felipe Mexico with his friend and his family at their vacation home for the weekend-- lucky boy :) "JEEPING" on some trails with some friends. They went on some pretty scary trails but had a blast. Anyway, we were about to take off for dinner tonight and Mia was very hungry. That girl will literally eat mandarin oranges 24/7 if I let her so I gave her an orange to pacify her until dinner. She was literally shoving the oranges into her mouth and juice was dripping everywhere. It was so funny I had to take pics-- of course.
After we got home from dinner Mia was acting totally goofy before bed. She was actually repeating almost everything we were requesting her to say-- so language is really coming along. She was jumping on the ottoman and just cracking herself up-- so I had to video it-- of course!!

Anyway, tomorrow is a relaxing day while Kevin works and then Monday I am taking Owen snowboarding. A bunch of our friends are all coming and many of the moms are not boarding so there will be lots of people to help care for Mia. I think she will be fine and I will just do a run here and there. I should have some good pics from that.
Monday night, we are hosting our Adoption Agencies in China Coordinator Judy and her son for the night. They are here visiting the US for the first time ever. They have been here for a few weeks and I believe will be here for another few weeks so it is a big trip for them. They want to get a "slice of the American life" so Tuesday I am taking them to Disneyland and then they will be moving onto another family. I really am excited to host them. I think it will be cool to talk to Judy and pick her brain.

Christy,
ReplyDeleteJust so you know it's my left
wrist too. I have been to the
Doctor and he said that I have
tendonitis ( I cant spell hehe)
But the problem is I have a cyst around the nerves of my wrist I had the choice to do the injections
but I was told it wouldn't help
with the cyst and it's getting
bigger and more painful daily so
we decided to see how the brace
would work. It hasn't helped much
and I am still in alot of pain so
we decided to remove the cyst and
he will fix the tendon's while he
is in there. Do you have a lump
on your wrist?
Call me sometime!!!!
I hope your wrist feels better
soon!!! Say hello to Mickey for
me!! I hope you can meet us in
Sept at Disney!!!
Sindy & Allie
What sweet, funny pictures of Mia eating the orange! How much fun you must be having as her language develops!!
ReplyDeleteSnowboarding sounds like great fun...not sure if I could do it though! :-)
Enjoy the visit with your coordinator. How fabulous!

ReplyDeleteMia is too cute! How do you get anything done with that little cutie by your side? : )
ReplyDeleteMia is such a doll! My Ellie loves mandarin oranges too! She would eat them 24/7 if I let her! I couldn't see your video, only a corner of the screen came on, bummer! Anyway, have fun at Disneyland! You lucky duck!!
ReplyDeleteMia is so precious. I just stumbled across your blog. We adopted our daughter from Chongqing China last February.
ReplyDeleteI love the metallic tennis shoes - would you mind sharing the brand name with me?
